CCM Classical Guitar Ensemble in Concert May 8

Members of CCM’s Classical Guitar Ensemble.

CCM’s Classical Guitar Ensemble of undergraduate guitarists will present its 39th annual Spring Concert at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, May 8, in UC’s Patricia Corbett Theater. The concert is free and open to the general public.

Tuesday’s program includes solos, duos, trios, quartets and full company pieces by Praetorius, Scarlatti, Bach, Falla, Roux, Assad, Tocher, Merlin, and Tedesco, among others.

The repertoire ranges from Renaissance lute music through Baroque plucked instrument collections to Latin American guitar favorites and a concluding set by Spanish icons Albéniz and Turina, whose music was inspired by the sounds and musical figurations of the Spanish guitar – falsetas, rasgueados, golpes et al.

Directed by Clare Callahan, CCM’s Classical Guitar Ensemble features Don Broerman, Evan Fiehrer, Bryce Mullins, Andrew Otte, Kirk Redman, Patrick Smith, Kevin Topmiller and Andrew Wygant.

The group recently presented concerts in Columbus at Capital University, as well as playing at the Ascension Lutheran Church Music Series on Saturday, May 5th.
