Pavel Steidl is one of our personal favorites. Every time Pavel plays, something special happens in the hall. He makes century-old pieces sound like they were composed especially for him. Pavel is performing all over the world with a passion and artistry that is unmatched. His unique style of performing is something you have to see at least once in your lifetime. Don’t miss out on this great guitarist, and buy your tickets now!

Guitar and violin, what a combination. Especially when Daniel Rowland and Alberto Mesirca are playing. Alberto Mesirca is an accomplished guitarist who plays everywhere, and Daniel Rowland is an amazing violinist.
They are going to play Paganini, De Falla, and other composers, and… a world premiere. How exciting is that? We are definitely going to be there. Are you?
