Join us to hear the classical guitar of Peter Fletcher!

Join us for an audience friendly, solo recital including repertoire that runs the gamut from the Renaissance Period through the 20th Century.

Peter Fletcher's program features Bach’s First Lute Suite and Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring; Three Dances from Terpsichore by Michael Praetorius; Passacaglia by Baroque lutenist Silvius Leopold Weiss; the ever-popular Caprice No. 24 by Paganini; Barcarole and Danza Pomposa by Polish composer Alexandre Tansman. Peter is especially excited to perform Simple Gifts, a Traditional Shaker Hymn arranged for guitar by guitarist Christopher Parkening. This piece, as well as  Villancico de Navidad and El Noi de la Mare are part of Fletcher’s Christmas album, released in 2015.

There will be music by Dowland, Ponce, Villa-Lobos, and the concert will culminate with Spanish composer Isaac Albeniz’s Córdoba and Leyenda from Cantos de España, arranged by Fletcher from piano to classical guitar

Peter Fletcher is an American classical guitarist based in Detroit and New York City. His recordings on the Centaur Records and Towerhill Recordings labels have been critically acclaimed. His interests outside of music include gardening, running, bike riding and fountain pens. An avid reader, he prefers the works of Cervantes, Proust, Faulkner, and Balzac.
