Paul Galbraith, guitar Presented by Strathmore Sunday, March 11, 2012 at 7:30 PM Mansion

This innovative classical guitarist has made it his personal quest to explore the music of Bach, Haydn and Brahms—and to do it, he helped develop the eight-string “Brahms guitar,” which will be featured in this “magnificently played, thoughtful and majestic” performance (Gramophone).
