The UNLV Performing Arts Center welcomes Grammy Award-winning classical guitarist Andrew York — a performer whose compositions blend the styles of ancient eras with modern musical directions, creating vital, multi-leveled, and accessible classical guitar concert pieces — at 8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 20, in the Dr. Arturo Rando-Grillot Recital Hall. The performance is part of the Allegro Guitar Series at UNLV.
In York's concerts, the theater becomes the living room and the musical conversation begins with the first note. His authenticity has inspired a worldwide following, with his touring schedule spanning more than 30 countries. Recent concerts include Rome, Bogota, Beijing, Ankara, Munich, Manhattan, Finland, Estonia, Lithuania, and a tour of Japan.
