At the beginning, Bach's melodious sound beckons, Niccolo Paganini and Claude Debussy have their say. We encounter works by Heitor Villa Lobos, Isaac Albeniz, Joaquin Rodrigo and many more. At the end of our journey, flamenco rhythms and Spanish passion await us.
"The guitar is like a small orchestra - viewed through binoculars held upside down." (Andrés Segovia)
About the artist
Wolfgang Mayer studied in Munich at the Richard Strauss Conservatory and at the Musikhochschule and Mozarteum Salzburg, and completed further studies in master classes with great musicians (Amando Marrosu, Leo Brouwer, José Tomás).
Since 2002 he has mainly performed as a soloist. His repertoire ranges from the baroque music of J.S. Bach to adaptations from the classical and romantic periods and contemporary music. In around 120 performances a year, he presents a mixture of flamenco, South American rhythms, amusing classical music and many surprises to a wide variety of audiences. In addition, there is a humorous conferénce in which anecdotes about the works and bizarre incidents from 30 years of concert activity find their place.
