Del Valle Fine Arts Presents Guitarist Paul Galbraith
Livermore, Calif. – Del Valle Fine Arts continues its 44th season with Guitarist Paul Galbraith on Saturday February 3rd at 7:30 pm in the Bankhead Theater. This internationally renowned, Grammy-nominated guitarist was most recently honored with the 2024 Guitar Foundation of America’s Hall of Fame Artistic Achievement Award. While still in his teens, he was silver medalist at the Segovia International Guitar Competition. He has performed with top orchestras and as a recitalist throughout Europe and North America, including three times on Lincoln Center’s “Great Performances” series.
Galbraith stands out both for his sensitive musical interpretations and for his unique instrument, which he designed to be held upright and which includes two additional strings. Classical Guitar notes that Galbraith “is the best guitarist of his generation.”
His wide-ranging program will include works by Schumann, Bach, Granados, Albeniz and others.
