Good friends and brother, Steve Linsky, joined us to hear guest artist Jeff Linsky perform for the Ventura County Classical Guitar Society. Mr. Linsky is able to improvise many blues pieces, classical repertoire and popular theme music such as Cavatina from Deer Hunter.
Jeff asked our own Jerry McGuire to play his concertina. Jerry played Ashokan Farewell, accompanied by Jeff.
There were questions from the audience about guitar playing. Jeff stressed how important it is to know chord structure. He invited anyone interested in a workshop to notify him.
The program ended with Brazilian music.
Early in the evening, The Wednesday Night Quartet played Las Mananitas, followed by
Larry playing Queen Elizabeth’s Galliard, by John Dowland. Mark Carlile performed Allegretto, by Torroba. Tommy Gunn was followed by Steve Bernd playing John Doan's Farewell. Study in A was done by Westan Ehad. And Juanita Wooten played Study #2, by Mateo Carcassi. Tim Buley played 2 selections.
