New York Times: Caballero is a “masterly guitarist” … praised for his “meticulous balance and chameleonic timbres.”Not to be missed! His virtuosic repertoire has amazing breadth and scope: including solo guitar versions of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio Espagnol, Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9, and so many other delights …
The Triangle Guitar Society Concert featuring Jorge Caballero is a live classical music performance showcasing intricate solo guitar arrangements of famous orchestral works. Attendees will hear complex pieces by composers like Mussorgsky and Dvorak translated to a single acoustic guitar in a historic church setting. This evening performance is best suited for teenagers and older children who can sit quietly through a ninety-minute classical recital. While ticket prices are not published in advance, events by this society typically require tickets at the door or online. Street parking is available around the downtown Durham church, and you should plan to arrive twenty minutes early to find a spot and secure your seats. It makes an excellent weekend outing for parents looking to share high-caliber instrumental music with their budding musicians. The acoustic quality of the church sanctuary provides an ideal environment to appreciate the technical skill of a world-class performer without the drive to a massive concert hall.
This is a formal classical recital lasting ninety minutes, so it is best reserved for older children, teenagers, and adults who can remain quiet throughout the performance.
Where is the concert located and where should I park?
The event takes place at the Church of the Good Shepherd in downtown Durham. Street parking is available along the surrounding blocks.
