The Grammy award-winning Los Angeles Guitar Quartet workshop designed for Bermuda’s advanced guitarists, a part of the Bermuda Festival outreach programme, is already a sell-out.

However, the guitar masterclass given by the quartet known for their inventive approach to music, is also open to observers.

Those not advanced enough to take part in the workshop, or who simply have an interest in the guitar can purchase observer tickets, and watch the participating musicians in action.

Performing in the masterclass will be a guitar trio and three soloists, including teacher and performer, Steve Crawford. The workshop, which will be on Saturday morning at the Fairmont Southampton, will give guitarists the chance to work with, and learn from, members of the Grammy award winning Quartet, according to a Festival press release.

Nancy Smith, the Festival’s outreach coordinator, said: “The members of the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet are not only accomplished musicians, but also renowned teachers, dedicated to sharing their knowledge and skills with students.

To give local guitarists the opportunity to work alongside and learn from their expertise is something we are very happy to be able to provide.”

Observer tickets are $25 for adults and $5 for students and can be purchased at bdatix.bm
