About
The award-winning Los Angeles Guitar Quartet are joined by the Delaware Symphony Orchestra under the direction of David Amado for the world-premiere recording of guitarist/composer Sergio Assad’s Interchange for four guitars and orchestra. This piece is made up of five movements, four of which are written for the individual members, whilst the fifth movement is dedicated to the entire quartet. The CD also includes Rodrigo’s delightful Concerto Andaluz for guitar quartet and orchestra.
The Los Angeles Guitar Quartet are four virtuosi who bring a new energy to the concert stage with eclectic programs and dynamic musical interplay, and have become one of the most charismatic and versatile groups performing today. Their inventive, critically-acclaimed transcriptions of concert masterworks provide a fresh look at the music of the past, while their interpretations of works from the contemporary and world-music realms continually break new ground. Their Telarc debut ‘LAGQ-Latin’ received a 2002 GRAMMY® nomination in the Best Classical Crossover Album category, and their release ‘LAGQ’s Guitar Heroes’ won a 2005 GRAMMY® Award.
