Nut Point Centre presents “Jake Church – Flavours of the Guitar”

Nut Point Centre presents “Jake Church – Flavours of the Guitar” on Saturday 13th April 2019 at 7.30 p.m.

Jake’s obsession in the mastery of traditional classical guitar repertoire in combination with exploring the its extended sonorities highlights why he’s “…one of the most exciting young classical guitarists in the country” (Gisborne Herald 2015). In one concert, experience the historical taste of the classical guitar and the magnified expressions of its deconstructed flavours.

Holding a Master of Musical Arts Degree from the New Zealand School of Music, Jake’s music bridges the gap between tradition and contemporary experimental guitar music: “…his experience performing around the country show[s] in his easy manner and obvious enjoyment… his playing [is] delicate, expressive and evocative…” (Anne Bovett, stuff.co.nz 2015).

This concert features “Nekojita”, a new set of educational études (studies) by Auckland composer Alex Taylor (in collaboration with Jake) to introduce and develop the perception of contemporary experimental guitar repertoire in New Zealand.
