The Arnica String Quartet (Shin-young Kwon and Fumino Ando, violins; Charles Noble, viola; Heather Blackburn, cello) was founded in 2005 by four leading Portland musicians; three of the performers are members of the Portland Symphony. Known for performances of the highest quality, Their program celebrates the music of Mozart & Arriaga (“The Spanish Mozart”). The program will include two concerti; the first in D minor by baroque composer J.S. Weiss, the second by Viennese composer Mauro Giuliani, his Concerto in A major (op. 30). Hearing Giuliani perform at a music soirée, Beethoven is said to have remarked: He (Giuliani) makes “the guitar sound like a little orchestra.”
Dr. Peter Joseph Zisa is an acclaimed performer on the six and eight-string classical guitar. His performance career, which started at age thirteen, has taken him across the U.S. and abroad. https://www.peterzisa.com/
