15 Aug - Laura Snowden & Tom Kerstens' GPlus Ensemble

Thurs 15 Aug  7.30 - 9.00pm (includes an interval)

The International Guitar Foundation (IGF) presents Laura Snowden and Tom Kerstens' GPlus Ensemble, in concert at the annual guitar summer school and festival in Bath.

Join us at the University of Bath for an inspiring evening of guitar. 

This exciting programme features the world premieres of two new pieces by Bobbie-Jane Gardner and John Metcalfe, as well as other IGF commissions by Laura Snowden, Joby Talbot, Joe Cutler, and Leo Brouwer.

Laura Snowden's eclectic repertoire comprises classical, folk and contemporary music, with storytelling at its heart. Her programme will feature classical works alongside her own evocative compositions, unique vocalisations, and Celtic folk arrangements.

Tom Kerstens is a major figure in the guitar world. He is highly regarded as a versatile performer on modern and period instruments and is an influential champion of the guitar in his roles as player, recording artist and artistic director. His G Plus Ensemble consists of one or two guitars, string quartet and percussion and is exclusively dedicated to new music.

Please note: summer school students can attend all concerts free of charge (without a ticket).
