Greetings All: This went to the lute list, but I probably should have thought to send it here first.
Hopkinson Smith will be giving a concert cosponsored by my own Columbus Guitar Society and Early Music in Columbus. That concert, entitled "De los Castillos y Calles de España: Spanish Guitar Music of the 17th Century", will be performed entirely on five-course guitar. The 1 April 2011 concert begins at 8:00 and is preceded by a brief lecture at 7:30 pm. It all takes place at Capital University's Mees Auditorium and tickets are available in advance from Early Music or Ticketmaster.com. In addition, at 2 pm on 2 April, I have committed Hoppy to offer a master class in Capital University's Kern's Religious Life Center, Columbus, OH. The fee to participate will be US$60. If you can make your way to Columbus, OH come April--lute or early guitar incarnation in hand (or even modern guitar if you'd really like)--and would like me to hold a performance spot for you, please reply to this e-mail. After I confirm available space, a check made out to the Columbus Guitar Society will confirm your spot. Act fast: there are only three performance spots remaining! The fee to simply attend as an auditor will be $15 at the door. Feel free to reply directly (off list if you'd like) with any questions you may have. Best, Eugene Eugene C.
