After a sold-out performance in the 2006-2007 Season and numerous requests for another visit, the Brazilian Guitar Quartet returns to the Bach Festival Society of Winter Park Visiting Artist Series in 2011.
The quartet's mastery of classical guitar repertoire and traditional Brazilian repertoire makes each concert experience unique and memorable. This season's concert includes Bach's Overture, Aria, and Gigue from Orchestral Suite No.3, selections from Albeniz's Iberia, Villa-Lobos' Quarteto Popular, and selected short pieces from Variations on a Brazilian Ballade by Brazil's Composer of the Year, Ronaldo Miranda.
