    International Guitar Night, North America’s premier mobile guitar festival, has featured the best performing guitar composers from around the world since 1995. Each tour, IGN founder Brian Gore invites a new cast of guitar luminaries to join him for special evenings of solos, duets and quartets that highlight the virtuosity and diversity within the world of acoustic guitar. Since the beginning, audiences have cherished the friendly informal ambiance of the performances. Participants have relished the chance IGN affords to express reverence for one another, and to collaborate rather than compete.For the January/February 2011 U.S. tour, Brian welcomes the British fingerstylist Clive Carroll, Alexandre Gismonti, a composer and classical guitarist who draws on both Brazilian and international musical traditions, and the virtuoso acoustic experimentalist Pino Forastiere, from Italy.

    There will also be a workshop on Tuesday, January 11 - please see the event page for more information.
