Big Guitar Weekend Highlights (1/4)
From the opening concert of the Big Guitar Weekend in Glasgow, Swedish guitarist Goran Sollscher performs an eclectic mix of inspiring guitar repertoire spanning over 300 years.
Swedish classical guitar virtuoso Göran Söllscher performs the opening recital of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 3 and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland’s Big Guitar Weekend. He begins with a suite by Silvius Leopold Weiss, a friend and contemporary of Bach, after which we hear Swedish composer Laci Boldemann’s Suite, which Söllscher premiered in 1982. Göran follows that with music from a band he grew up with - the Beatles. Closing the concert is Bach’s Third Cello Suite in an arrangement by Göran’s son, Johan.
