Hands-On Guitar
Hands-On Guitar aims to provide an overview and discussion of the artist research praxis across the old and new world. Therefore, we welcome the valuable insights of performers, composers and researchers and their innovative contributions to artistic and aesthetic features of classical guitar music.
We are glad to welcome world-class musicians such as Martha Masters, Helen Sanderson, Jonathan Leathwood, Thomas Viloteau and Pedro Henriques da Silva to Hands-On Guitar at the University of Aveiro.
Hands-On Guitar will feature multiple activities (concerts, conferences, masterclasses, lecture-performances, paper presentations, a guitar ensemble created specifically for this occasion) and this array of events will appeal to a wide audience from every age and level.
