Scott R Sanchez
Lecturer, Classical Guitar
Originally from Colorado his playing has been described as "Colorful and poignant" by Soundboard Magazine (U.S.A.). Referring to his British debut, Classical Guitar Magazine (Great Britain) said, "Sanchez drew the audience into his playing with his excellent performance... made light work of playing what at times looked like some fearsomely difficult passages... stylish and virtuosic." He currently has four cds covering a repertoire spanning the music of the Baroque era to modern day masterpieces.
