"Two GIANTS of the guitar. Truly. And from vastly different parts of the world: Goran Ivanovic is from Croatia, and Fareed Haque's mother and father were from Chile and Pakistan, respectively.
Inspired by the rhythms and melodies of flamenco, jazz, classical, rock and the Balkan region, this performance features the unrivaled guitar artistry of two of the finest players of their respective generations. Their music is carefully balanced between blazing virtuosity and sheer beauty.
Join with your community and take a stand for our country and our civil rights in an evening of music and solidarity. This event benefits the ACLU, defender of the civil rights of all Americans.
The evening will include a musical performance by Fareed Haque and Goran Ivanovich at Studio5 as well as a silent auction and speeches by leaders from the ACLU and Working Family Solidarity.
From Studio5: "Everything we make in ticket sales above our base expenses for the evening we will donate to the ACLU. So by purchasing a ticket you will not only be treated to a dazzling evening of music, you will be helping a most worthwhile cause. For those interested, the evening will feature a silent auction (also to benefit the ACLU) beginning when the doors open at 7:30. Just think: We can do something good and have lots of fun at the same time. Hope you can join us." ~Steve Rashid
