Posted on by

On December 1st 4PM the Indiana University Guitar Ensemble will present a show at the Powell Recital Hall at the University of Tennessee. Under the direction of Mtro. Daniel Duarte, the Jacobs Guitar Ensemble performs fundamental repertoire related to the Classical Guitar tradition and various other styles while featuring original works for Guitar Ensemble and arrangements that aim to expose students to practical elements of music performance that often appear in the Guitar repertoire. The Jacobs Guitar Ensemble also provides an opportunity for its members to explore new instruments of the Guitar Family such as seven string guitars, requinto, cuatro, cavaquinho and other non-traditional instruments that are part of Guitar’s Historic development and fundamental for elements of ensemble and chamber music practice.
