Wall to Wall Guitar Festival: Global Guitar: Rahim AlHaj, Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, Pierre Bensusan

Where:

Krannert Center's Foellinger Great Hall; 500 S. Goodwin, Urbana

When:

Friday Sep 14, 2007 7:00 pm to 12:00 am

Description:

Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, Pierre Bensusan with Michel Benita, Rahim AlHaj. A celebration of guitar around the world must include AlHaj, one of the world's leading performers on the oud. He's joined by one of the great Ravi Shankar's earliest pupils, Bhatt, who rose to the world's attention for his Indianization of the Hawaiian guitar. And while a steel-string acoustic guitarist might seem unlikely to become a pre-emminent jazz player, Pierre Bensusan proves things otherwise with gymnastic chord maneuvering and swift runs. Tickets $14-$34
