About this concert

Uruguayan guitarist Álvaro Pierri continues Wigmore Hall’s new guitar series with a programme evoking the sun-drenched landscape of Spain, the jazz-infused soundscape of the Balkans, and includes Ginastera’s energetically rhythmic sonata.

‘Fluent technique, golden tone and singing musicality poured from his guitar. Pierri matched panache with reflectiveness and superb rhythmic flexibility’ Vancouver Sun
