SUMMARY:Los Angeles Guitar Quartet
DESCRIPTION:“The world’s hottest classical ensemble or its tightest pop band? However it helps you to think about the LAGQ\, keep the emphasis on superlatives for its unrivaled joy\, technical elan and questing spirits.” – Los Angeles Times \nGuitar virtuoso Andrés Segovia likened his instrument to a small orchestra\, “every string a different color\, a different voice.” Since 1980\, the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet (LAGQ) has embraced that diverse\, adventurous spirit—infusing new vigor into canonical classics while bridging classical\, jazz\, rock and pop in contemporary explorations. For its American Guitar Masters program\, the LAGQ celebrates U.S. guitar innovators\, including selections from Chet Atkins\, Jimi Hendrix\, Frank Zappa\, and Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs\, guitar settings of Sousa and Copland\, chorales and chaconnes\, and the centerpiece “Road to the Sun.” Jazz legend Pat Metheny wrote this melodic\, groove-filled tone poem specifically for the LAGQ\, whom the Los Angeles Times hailed as “one of the wonders of the chamber music scene rooted in the West.” \nPRE-SHOW DISCUSSION | 2PM | STEWART CENTER 310\nJoin Los Angeles Guitar Quartet member Bill Kanengiser and composer\, jazz pianist and music educator Dr. Judd Danby for a pre-show discussion.

SUMMARY:Cameron Graves
DESCRIPTION:“His contrastingly romantic and ardent chord-work suggest what Rachmaninoff might have sounded like if he’d played in a contemporary fusion band.” — The Guardian \nHailed by Rolling Stone as “the house pianist for the party at the end of the universe\,” Cameron Graves is revitalizing funk\, jazz\, soul and fusion with kaleidoscopic\, kinetic energy. After cutting his teeth on Chopin\, Coltrane and Van Halen\, Graves co-founded L.A.’s West Coast Get Down (WCGD) alongside the supernova saxophone of Kamasi Washington. Known as the Wu-Tang Clan of jazz\, the WCGD collective is prolific when united or untethered. Graves’ 2017 debut album\, Planetary Prince\, emerged from a marathon WCGD recording session. Whether turning Ellington on its ear or achieving supersonic speeds typically reserved for prog rock and metal\, Graves transposes a fretboard ferocity and fluidity to 88 keys—music to quicken your pulse as easily as it broadens your consciousness.

SUMMARY:Margo Price
DESCRIPTION:“One of the most compelling country talents to come out of Nashville in recent memory” — Vulture \nIn 2015\, Margo Price called it a win if she had enough gas in the tank to make her next gig. By 2016\, she was among country music’s most celebrated new artists. Price’s debut album\, Midwest Farmer’s Daughter\, made numerous top-10 lists; NPR called it “the hard-won arrival of an artist who feels like she’s always been here.” Her 2017 follow-up\, All American Made\, earned widespread acclaim and a 2019 Grammy® nomination for Best New Artist. Price’s voice is a brassy\, sassy clarion call to wry\, weary\, and wise stories of heartache and determination. Fusing Nashville country\, Memphis soul and Texas twang\, she tips her cap to Waylon\, Willie\, Loretta and Dolly while challenging country conventions through brutally honest\, beautifully poetic portraits of everyday life. \nPRE-SHOW TALK | 6:30PM | PMU West Faculty Lounge\nJoin McKenzie Isom\, a  Ph.D. student in the Department of History\, for a discussion about the evening’s performance.
