This past weekend the Music Conservatory in Granada hosted a guitar-makers show just as they did last year and invited all of us to take an instrument to be played publicly. The idea is that the students can hear these instruments and afterwards try them out if they so desire. The association organized the participants and got the word out to the makers but as always participation could have been better; only 12 makers signed up. Guitarist Adam Marec did the honours and played the same pieces on each of the guitars and there were clearly some differences in quality of sound.
This was all part of the 2º Guitar Encuentro which we hope will be an annual affair. Thank you to the Real Conservatorio Superior Victoria Eugenia and to the Asociación para el estudio de la guitarra.
