"One of the most important showcases for contemporary guitar" - San Francisco Chronicle Featuring: Andrew York (US) Diego Figueiredo (Brazil) Maneli Jamal (Iran/Canada) Brian Gore (US) At Crossroads Music, 801 South 48th Street (in Calvary Church) Tickets ($10-30) and more information at www.crossroadsconcerts.org <http://www.crossroadsconcerts.org/> 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. For the January/February 2015 North American tour, IGN founder Brian Gore will be joined by classical innovator and fellow Californian Andrew York; Brazilian jazz master Diego Figueiredo and contemporary Iranian-Canadian steel string prodigy Maneli Jamal. Andrew is a Grammy winner both for his work with the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet and for his own brilliant compositions. Diego is one of the most sought-after jazz artists in the United States and around the world, and Maneli has won guitar competitions around the world.
