Classical Guitar Magazine interview

Classical Guitar Magazine are celebrating our 20 years performing together with a cover and interview in their August edition. The interview was given by excellent CMG newcomer Guy Travis who bowled us some thought provoking questions (do you like the Ashes flavour?).

Guy asked us about our early student years (I’m feeling really old now!), how we choose and programme our concerts, and also about our new venture into the quartet medium with the VIDA Guitar Quartet. Here is a small, and sort of serious sounding moment from the interview …

“Guitarists will have to become more imaginative with their programming if we are to move beyond guitar circles and make an impact on the wider musical scene.”

Calm down, calm down! If you want to hear how much we’ve changed into grumpy old men in our 20th year, then please read a copy and let us know what you think.

On a totally different subject, an apology to all those who have received some random posts. We recently up-dated our website and there have been a few issues which needed ironing out. Was the Jackdaws blog just as good the second time round? Let me know and leave a comment. Best wishes, M.
