Eric Cabalo Performs Latin Guitar Classics

“We don’t get many professional classical guitarists coming through here, “said Nick Lambson, who teaches guitar at Humboldt State. “That’s one reason this recital by Eric Cabalo is a special event.”

Eric Cabalo will perform a program of South American solo guitar music on Saturday, February 3 at 8PM in the Fulkerson Recital Hall on the HSU campus in Arcata.

Cabalo performs primarily in the Bay Area, as a soloist, chamber musician, and as half of the Cabalo/Green Duo, with guitarist Stuart Green. He has recently released his first CD, titled Evocacíon.

Cabalo is director of classical guitar studies at Sonoma State University, and is the founder/director of 12th Fret Guitar Studios, a guitar program providing classical guitar instruction for children and adults.

At HSU, Cabalo will perform a program of South American solo guitar classics, including compositions by Jose Luis Merlin, Jorge Cardosa, “3 Venezuelan Waltzes” by Antonio Lauro, and five preludes by Heitor Villa-Lobos.

Admission for the February 3 concert is $8 general, $3 students/seniors. Tickets are available from the HSU Box Office (826-3928) or at the door. This guest artist appearance is produced by the HSU Department of Music.

Cabalo will also teach a Master Class on Sunday at 11 AM. Call HSU Music Department at 826-3531 for more information.
