Two of the foremost guitarists of our time, Paul Galbraith and Meng Su, perform in today鈥檚 Lunchtime Concert recorded at the Big Guitar Weekend festival in November 2019. Paul Galbraith begins with Bach on his unique 8-string guitar, developed by luthier David Rubio. Three pieces from Schumann鈥檚 Album f眉r die Jugend follow alongside two of Scriabin鈥檚 wonderful miniature preludes. Albeniz鈥檚 Suite Espa帽ola closes Paul鈥檚 set before Qingdao-born guitarist Meng Su continues in Argentinian mode with Piazzolla鈥檚 tango-inspired Cinco Piezas. Meng Su closes with a work by one of her own guitar heroes, Sergio Assad.
