Liverpool Guitar Society will give a concert in the Birkenhead Priory as part of the International Guitar Festival of Great Britain this year.
Soloists from Liverpool Guitar Society will open the concert by showcasing their talents with pieces from the classical guitar repertoire.
As part of the concert a performance of Oxton-born Cyril Scott’s Sonatina for Guitar will take place.
This piece, commissioned by Andrés Segovia in 1927, was thought lost and only rediscovered as recently as 2001. The programme will feature Richard Harding’s classical guitar quartet arrangement of the piece alongside works written by other English composers.
The concert will take place at 2 pm on Saturday 15th June. Tickets are available from our website: www.liverpoolguitar.org/tickets
