Comment
A concert that will appeal to both world music and classical enthusiasts alike, John Williams continues to demonstrate why he is the most versatile and respected guitarist in the world with his unique mix of astounding technical ability and musicianship, matched with an insatiable hunger to explore music of other cultures - in this case, that of Venezuela. John Williams has explored, expanded and personally inspired a modern renaissance for the classical guitar and with over 30 best selling recordings compounded with 30 years of international performances, he has unquestionably established himself as its foremost ambassador.
This concert taps into the vibrant roots of Venezuelan folk music which influenced his latest CD El Diablo Suelto (translating as 'Devil on the Loose'). Intensely rhythmic and beautifully melodic at the same time, this colourful music mixes the indigenous Indian, Spanish and African cultures that have defined Venezuelan music over many decades. John Williams has constantly pushed the boundaries of his genre and unfailingly draws a devoted and adoring response from every audience with his supreme craftmanship and moving musical interpretation.
