Midweek Musical Matinee: "Classical Guitar thru the Ages"

In-Person at the Osher Marin JCC, 200 N. San Pedro Road (San Rafael, CA)

Fan-favorite guitarist Marc Teicholz returns to play a concert of gorgeous works by master composers through the ages, including Fernando Sor (1778-1839), Manuel Ponce (1882-1948), Joaquin Turina (1882-1949), and Sérgio Assad (1952-).

Marc Teicholz, classical guitarist, is the first prize-winner of the 1989 International Guitar Foundation of America competition. He has toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada, Russia and Europe, receiving critical acclaim for his recitals and master classes. He has also toured Southeast Asia, Fiji, and New Zealand under the auspices of the U.S.I.A. Artistic Ambassador program.

Teicholz has appeared as a soloist with orchestras in Russia, Portugal, Spain, Hawaii and throughout the US. He has recorded several CDs as well as the soundtrack for George Lucas’ “Young Indiana Jones.”

He enjoys working with composers to produce new guitar literature and has premiered several new works written for him.

Releases include a solo CD of waltzes (“Valseana”) recorded on vintage instruments with GSI which was named by Acoustic Magazine as one of the 10 best CDs of 2011. A recording of Ernesto Nazareth's compositions, arranged and produced by Sergio Assad, was released in 2016 and named by Acoustic Magazine as one of the 10 best CDs of that year. He also premiered a concerto by Clarice Assad dedicated to him in 2016. He is a featured performer for the website GuitarbyMasters.

He is on the faculty of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and at California State University East Bay.

He has participated in several festivals, including the Valley of the Moon music festival, the GuitarWest Festival in Calgary, the Kaslo Festival in British Columbia, the Moab Music Festival, the National Guitar Summer Workshop, the California Summer Arts Festival and the Weathersfield Music Festival.
