The great Uruguayan guitarist, Marco Sartor, made his third visit to Northeast Ohio to play both a double concerto concert with the Ashland Symphony Orchestra AND a solo recital at the University of Akron, and teach a master class, all in two days.
With Ashland Symphony, he played concerti by Vivaldi (in D) and Rodrigo (Aranjuez). The concert was extremely successful-beautifully played, well-accompanied and with good attendance. Ashland, OH (my town) is America's smallest town with a professional orchestra.
During the master class at U Akron, four students played. Adam Keeler got a lesson on the Prelude form Bach's BWV 997:
Jonathan Smith worked on Santorsola's first Sonata:
Daniel Silverman played Villa-Lobos' Prelude No. 1:
And Philip Logan played the Allegro from the Violin Sonata No. III in C.
Here is Marco on stage with the Ashkand Symphony Orchestra.
