Classical Guitarist Andrew York

Saturday, September 3, 2016 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Multi-Grammy award winner Andrew York is one of today’s best loved composers for classical guitar and a performer of international stature. His compositions blend the styles of ancient eras with modern musical directions, creating music that is at once vital, multi-leveled and accessible.

“Andrew York’s eclectic writing and playing constitute one of the hippest styles in American classical guitar . . . his writing projects levels of honesty, spirit and magnetism that are rare in contemporary guitar composition.” – Jim Ferguson, Guitar Player Magazine

Andrew received a Grammy as a member of the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet during his sixteen years with the cutting-edge ensemble. York’s compositions have been featured on Grammy-winning recordings by Jason Vieaux (CD “Play”, featuring Andrew’s iconic composition “Sunburst”, 2015) and Sharon Isbin (CD “Journey to the New World” featuring “Andecy”, 2010). In 2006 Andrew recorded and performed with the Atlanta Symphony for the opera “Ainadamar” by Osvaldo Golijov. The recording of “Ainadamar” (Deutsche Gramophone) won two Grammy awards.
