The Worldwide Guitar Connections project, with the support of the Embassy of Brazil, and the New Zealand School of Music invites you to the Wellington concert of guitarist Fabricio Mattos.

In the context of The Worldwide Guitar Connections, classical guitarist Fabricio Mattos, from Curitiba, Brazil, will travel the world performing works exclusively written for him by five composers, as follows:

Harry Crowl – 3 Curitiba Preludes
Mario Ferraro – Tortous Poem
Luiz Cláudio Ribas Ferreira – Choro das Araucarias
Paul Hart – All thus stand light
Salomao Habib – Amazon Suite

The pieces approach five different musical languages, within the concepts and parameters of each composer.

Read more about the project, Fabricio Mattos and the composers at the official website: http://www.worldwideguitarconnections.com/

The concert is free, but a koha to help cover costs is encouraged. As space is limited, please reserve your seat by emailing the names of the attendees to cultural@brazil.org.nz, stating 'Wellington' as the city where you wish to this concert.

Fabricio is also performing in Auckland and Dunedin. These concerts would not have been made possible without the generous support of the Christian Agape Centre in Auckland; Instituto Camões, the Department of Music and the Department of Languages and Cultures at the University of Otago, Dunedin, and the New Zealand School of Music (NZSM), in Wellington. Many thanks to: Pastor Wanderlei and Alex Borba in Auckland; Celia Mendes, Professors Henry Johnson, Terence Dennis and Sue Court and Mary-Jane Campbell in Dunedin; Dr Jane Curry, Nick Tipping and Sarah Smythe, at the NZSM.
