Aïghetta guitar quartet

The Aïghetta Guitar Quartet, founded in 1979 in Monte Carlo, has performed in numerous concert halls across Europe and collaborated with artists such as Henryk Szeryng, György Cziffra, Riccardo Chailly, John McLaughlin, and Anthony Burgess. In recent years, they have been creating their own compositions as a synthesis of new musical trends.

For the Ljubljana audience, they will present a diverse program featuring contemporary works by ensemble members, the classical Quartet for Four Guitars by Ferdinando Carulli, and arrangements of well-known pieces from musical theatre, including the overture to Gioachino Rossini’s opera The Barber of Seville, two movements from the ballet suite El amor brujo by Spanish impressionist Manuel de Falla, and the Gypsy Song from the passionately unrestrained Carmen, Bizet’s famous masterpiece.
