As part of the the temporary exhibition entitled “Play. Música y Ciencia” at the Granada Science Park, the Granada Guitar-makers Association has a space which includes a live guitar-maker’s workshop and an display case for three guitars. We have been rotating the guitars so that all of the members get a chance to show their guitars. For the next three months my copy of Torres’ La Invencible will be on display. This is a true copy, right down to the silver plaque affixed to the headstock.

Words to live by
This time I was reading an old copy of American Lutherie (Nº 56, 1998) and came across an article by Jeffrey Elliott. The article is very good but these words especially rang true to me. What makes players fall in love with a particular guitar is a very elusive quality but it is that love that helps them play their very best. A guitar must be more than a well-made tool.

Exposición en la Biblioteca Musical de Madrid
La exposición, comisariada por Cristina Bordas, abre el 15 de noviembre y dura hasta abril. En conversaciones con Cristina y la directora de la biblioteca Inmaculada Seldas me he dado cuenta que tengo que sacar un día pronto para ir a Madrid a ver todo lo que van a exponer.
