National Youth Guitar Ensemble at WYGF09

 

Here at WYGF headquarters we are thrilled to see so many of our 2007 groups returning for WYGF09 … I just hope that we’ll have enough room for all the new guitarists too! We are already taking bookings so please do let us know if you are planning to come, either as part of a group, or as an individual.

One of the ensembles coming back for more are the rather wonderful National Youth Guitar Ensemble. Led by artistic director, Gerald Garcia they joined forces with the Australian super-ensemble Guitarstrophe! to record a CD directly after the main festival last year. The CD Festive Fizz was launched earlier this year at the Winchester Guitar Festival (WGF) and we shall be featuring the CD on this site soon.

Playing in NYGE is a fabulous experience for young guitarists and their new coordinator, Liz Larner, recently got in touch to tell us more about the group.
