Programme Note
Cuban-Austrian guitarist Marco Tamayo is acclaimed as the “Il Re della Chitarra” ("the king of the guitar"). He is a prize winner in no fewer than 25 major international competitions.
He is regarded as one of the foremost classical guitarists in the world.
Marco Tamayo started playing guitar at the age of three, was hailed as a prodigy at the age of six and his first European tour took place in Europe at age 10!
As a teacher, he has taught at the most prestigious educational institutions including the Mozarteum in Salzburg; he recently was selected from 400 competing guitarists to be appointed Professor at Universität der Künste Berlin. Guitarists from all around the globe have joined his class there.
Tamayo’s book “Essential Principles for the interpretation on the Classical Guitar” changed the approach to classical guitar teaching around the world. He is the Artistic Director of the Michele Pittaluga International Guitar Competition.
This is a unique opportunity to hear this amazing player making his debut in Bath!
An event not to be missed!
