Musical Performance With Peter Fletcher

Peter Fletcher, classical guitaristPeter Fletcher will perform at the Ada Public Library on Monday, May 7, 2012, at 6 pm. The performance is free and open to the public.

Peter Fletcher began taking lessons at the age of six. Two years later it was recommended that he learn the classical style of guitar playing, which he finds the most challenging and rewarding. Fletcher is a graduate of the Eastman School of Music, and he approaches every recital with the same commitment. Each performance is as important as a Carnegie Hall concert.

“I want 20 or 30 percent of a performance to be music that no classical guitarists are playing at all, just to make me unique, but the 80 percent is what everybody knows, just to keep it accessible.”

For the 2011-2012 season, Peter is offering an entirely new concert program. Repertoire will include the Chaconne in D minor by J. S. Bach; Francisca Tarrega's ever popular Recuardos de la Alhambra; two exciting crowd pleasers by Spanish composer Joaquin Turina; Grieg's Chanon de Solveig from Peer Gynt; and music of Praetorius, Ponce and Reusner. This program will culminate with Niccolo Paganini's flashy Caprice No. 24.
