Taiwan Guitar Seminar

This is Esther during her concert in Taiwan.  She was invited by the Taiwan Guitar Seminar to play a solo concert and accepted the kind invitation of Michael Luo and Alfredo Huang.  She is preparing a sequel to her Bach cd so she decided to play Bach a.o.

Since playing solo is not her favorite thing to do,  she asked the organization if she could add some chamber music to the program and that’s how the cooperation with mezzo-soprano Cheng, Hai-Yun and violinist Tsai Tsung-Yen started (see video below).

Rehearsing Piazzolla with Taiwanese violist Tsung-Yen Tsai. We were only supposed to play Monti’s Czardas, which we did, but we added #cafe1930, just for the fun of it. . .video by Alfredo Huang @alfredo5414 . #rehearsal #piazzolla #violin #guitar, #violist #music #kaohsiung .

Workshop

I too was invited,  to give a lecture and do some workshops. I talked about my way of working and I taught guitarists how to take care of their instruments and how to do some small repairments themselves.
