Concert: Keith Calmes, Classical Guitarist In-Person
Classical Guitarist Keith Calmes is back by popular demand!
Keith's performance credits include a Carnegie Hall recital debut as Winner of the Artists International Competition, concerti with the Monmouth Symphony, a performance with Maestro Carlos Barbosa-Lima and many concerts and recordings with flautist Marjorie Koharski. Keith's passion for new music has led the following composers to write for him: Roger Aldridge, Will Ayton, Timothy Broege, Leo Brouwer, Frank Campo, Ruben Delgado, Jurg Kindle, Chiel Meijering, Jean-Maurice Mourat, Maximo Diego Pujol, Stepan Rak, Kevin Siegfried and Jim Scully. Keith has several solo recordings and duo recordings with Chiel Meijering available at CD Baby and iTunes.
Although usually considered a classical guitarist, Keith's musical diversity can be attested to. He has studied with Jazz master Jim Hall and opened for surf legend Dick Dale. A deep interest in Indian rhythms has led to studies and performances with percussion virtuoso Selvaganesh Vinayakram and his family band. Keith has also played in a wide variety of Jazz and Rock bands.
