Martha Masters talks to WYGF

by Helen

WYGF 2009 Guest Artist Martha Masters took time out of her busy schedule at the GFA Convention in Ithaca NY to talk to Mark Eden. Martha is a major figure in the North American guitar scene and is a performer and teacher with impressive credentials: GFA Competition winner in 2000; CD and DVD recordings with Naxos, GSP, and Mel Bay; teacher at the Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles; and also Vice President of the Guitar Foundation of America.

Those of you who are unlucky enough not to be on the WYGF course and picking up some encouraging gems of advice from her, can still get a chance to hear her at the WYGF International Concert Series on Wednesday 12 August at 19:30 in the Bacon Theatre. Fellow American guitarist Brad Richter will also be performing that night so book your tickets early. Box office details for the Bacon Theatre are as follows …
