"One of the most important showcases for contemporary guitar" - San Francisco Chronicle
This is an outstanding show for lovers of classical guitar!
International Guitar Night, North America’s premier mobile guitar festival, has featured the best performing guitar composers from around the world since 1995. Each tour, IGN founder Brian Gore invites a new cast of guitar luminaries to join him for special evenings of solos, duets and quartets that highlight the virtuosity and diversity within the world of acoustic guitar. Since the beginning, audiences have cherished the friendly informal ambiance of the performances. Participants have relished the chance IGN affords to express reverence for one another, and to collaborate rather than compete with one another.
This year's tour includes the classically-trained Italian experimentalist Pino Forastiere, Quique Sinesi, whose original compositions are rooted in the tango and folkloric music of his native Argentina, the brilliant young British fingerstyle guitarist Mike Dawes, and the program's organizer, California "guitar poet" Brian Gore.
