The CGSP consists of Oscar Arévalo, Arturo
Guajardo, Pepe Guerrero and Gilberto Manzanares,
four young guitarists from Nuevo Leon, Mexico that
have distinguished themselves for their musical
and technical capacities, their professionalism
and their passion for chamber music. They are recipients
of a scholarship by the San Pedro's Direction
of Culture to improve their classical guitar technique
under the lead of Maestro Andres Liceaga, who is
also the artistic director of this ensemble. The
ensemble has performed with great success at several
important venues and festivals in the North of
Mexico.
To name a few: Plaza Fatima Cultural Center, Monclova's
Cathedral, Silvestre Revueltas Auditorium at the
Superior Music School of Coahuila State University,
House of Culture in San Pedro, Nuevo Leon, Bernabe
de las Casas Museum in Mina, NL, International
Festival
2001 of Santiago, NL, and Barrio Antiguo International
Festival 2001 in Monterrey, NL. In April 2002,
the
Quartet participated with great success at the
First International Festival of Guitar Ensembles
in the
University of Texas at Brownsville, where they
were heard by Dr. Madriguera, who invited the Cuarteto
to perform on the 2002/2003 UTD Guitar series.
The CGSP's greatest gift is its versatility in performance
style making it possible to delight listeners with
a repertoire that spans renaissance, modern, and
jazz, as well as music of Hispanic folklore influence. |
