The Tucson Guitar Society closes its International Artist Series for the season with Grammy Award-winning guitarist David Russell from Spain and Scotland, as well as the great young French performer Gabriel Bianco. One of Tucson’s great treasures is the musical residency of the extraordinary David Russell at the University of Arizona. He comes every year to teach and to perform, thanks to the legacy of Sandy Bolton. Russell also judges the David Russell Bach Prize Recital, which presents four top guitar students playing works of Johann Sebastian Bach. This year the winner will be awarded a custom guitar by German luthier Dennis Tolz, who will also be present at the event.
