Montreal Guitar Trio - Otago Festival of the Arts

The unbridled energy and charisma of the three guitarists of MG3 lead their audience to a special place where jazz and world-music are entwined with gusto. Spiced by a wry sense of humour, the Canadian guitar trio’s music exudes an irresistible energy and an overwhelming passion that makes audiences stamp their feet furiously!

The Trio’s eclectic and often very loud music takes listeners on a journey through the world’s many cultures – from the mysterious, exotic melodies of India to the hot rhythms of South America, Spain, the Balkans, the Orient, traditional Quebec and Hollywood.

Coming from a classical background, MG3 members also sing and write much of their material. The Glenroy Auditorium will provide a simply marvellous acoustic for their performance and capture the intimacy of these exuberant artists.

This is not a conventional chamber concert – MG3 is amplified; they also play accordion –and create a fantastic evening of fun.

“Their debut in Germany was one of the most unforgettable events... both artistically and programme wise... the audience applauded and wouldn’t quieten down until the event organiser had promised to engage Montreal Guitar Trio again next year..”
