From the editor:
We are already halfway through our Sundin Music Hall season, with four concerts already presented and five more to go.
Our January and February artists are coming from milder climes
to brave the Minnesota winter weather. Our community concert
series is heating up with radio time expanding our listening audience and giving our local artists more exposure and opportunities to be heard. We do our best to welcome all of our artists from
near and far and that means you are needed! There is room for
more of us at every concert and you won’t want to miss a note. In
addition to presenting great music, we are holding a raffle this
year for a beautiful Ramirez classical guitar, to benefit the society.
Please see the article in this issue. Here are some winter events to
look for:

Quaternaglia, January 24
Q
uaternaglia Guitar
Quartet (QGQ) is
widely acclaimed
as one of the top contemporary classical guitar ensembles. QGQ is known for their
artistic excellence, enthusiasm
and for their contributions to
the expansion of the guitar
quartet repertoire. Over the
past twenty plus years, the
ensemble of Brazilian guitarists Chrystian Dozza, Fabio
Ramazzina, Thiago Abdalla and Sidney Molina, has established a broad canon of original pieces and bold arrangements, in
which various Brazilian composers, including Egberto Gismonti,
Almeida Prado, Paulo Bellinati, Sérgio Molina and Marco Pereira,
have collaborated with the quartet. The quartet’s performance first attracted the attention of international critics in 1998, after it was awarded the Ensemble Prize
at the International Guitar Contest of Havana. The group’s inaugural album - which includes the most important quartet works
by Cuban composer Leo Brouwer- marked the beginning of a
long and productive collaboration with the composer, which
culminated in the Brazilian premieres of Concerto Itálico and
Gismontiana. Brouwer himself also conducted the group in performances of his works at MASP’s Grande Auditório (São Paulo),
at Theatro da Paz (Belém do Pará), and at Theatro Nacional de
Havana (Cuba). Quaternaglia Program for January 2015

Carlevaro Festival” (Uruguai, 1996), Quaternaglia has performed
in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington D.C., Dallas,
Lisbon, Porto, Coimbra, Buenos Aires, Caracas,
Havana, and in more than fifteen Brazilian
states. Quaternaglia has also been the featured
soloist of many orchestras in Brazil, Cuba, and
the United States, including performing The
Journey of the Weary Souls and Forrobodó, concertos composed by Sérgio Molina and Egberto
Gismonti for Quaternaglia’s performance at the
“First International Guitar Festival of Round
Top” (USA, 2005). Quaternaglia’s discography includes the
albums Quaternaglia, Antique, Forrobodó,
Presença, Estampas and Jequibau as well as
Quaternaglia’s DVD recorded live. In 2008 Quaternaglia made
the Brazilian premiere of Gismontiana, a concerto for four guitars
and orchestra written by Leo Brouwer and conducted by the composer himself in his first visit to the country. The musicians of Quaternaglia Guitar Quartet use four guitars
custom-made by renowned Brazilian luthier Sérgio Abreu.
Miroslav Tadic, February 21
M
iroslav Tadic was born in Tuzla, Bosnia-Herzegovina (in
the former Yugoslavia).
He left his home at age
19 to study guitar at California
Institute of the Arts, where he now
teaches. During his student days
he learned how to improvise continuo on guitar and worked on an
ambitious project of arranging and transcribing The Well
Tempered Clavier for two
guitars (in original keys). Eventually he had to make a decision whether to switch to lute or to stay with guitar and play
repertoire that is directly meant for that instrument. He opted to stay with guitar and started developing his own compositions and improvisations that utilize his classical technique. In its Jan/Feb 1994 issue, the editors of Acoustic Guitar
Magazine voted his recording, Window Mirror, which includes
J.S. Bach’s Suite for lute in G minor, BWV 995 one of the five
essential classical guitar recordings of the 1990’s. He has writcontinued on p. 4

ten music for a number of award-winning experimental film,
theater, and dance works. In their January 1997 issue, the editors of Guitar Player magazine voted him one of the world’s
thirty most radical and individual guitarists. In addition to his musical offerings (which includes a 26
cd discography, dvds, published guitar works, a full time
faculty position at California Institute of the Arts, multiple
tours and performances), Miroslav makes his own guitars.
There is a terrific, thoughtful interview with the artist from
2012 with Scott Collins from Guitar-Muse that is published
on Miroslav’s website, <www.miroslavtadic.com>. For
those readers who are interested in learning more about this
eclectic, fascinating musician, I highly recommend the reading the entire piece.
Below are some of Miroslav’s thoughts from that article
on his repertoire, on how to choose repertoire, and on being
“original.”
“[In my music] you have a combination of classical music which
is structured and fixed. Then you have some improvisation that’s
completely open. Then you have some traditional folk music and
then the Flamenco, which is also a highly structured music. So it’s
just a weird combination of things that (because I know them fairly
well) I can combine even though there’s apparent distance between
them. They are connected. That’s why I’m able to make
instruments. That’s why I can cook. I really feel that
ultimately it’s all connected. What you do is a reflection
of who you are as a person. The way you relate to people
you know or don’t know, how you drive or how you do
anything. It’s connected. It has to do with you as a person and with your bottom line and your aesthetic. Your
aesthetic is your understanding of what is good, what is
beautiful and what life is.” … “One thing is that we need
to feel and understand what we’re really connected to
and to pick a few things [to focus on]. You have to pick a
few things because you really can’t be in command of all
of the other stuff.”… “To me, being original just means
being true to yourself. Some people waste a lot of time trying intentionally to be original through weird repertoire
or instruments or appearance and I don’t think that’s
really where it’s at. Where it’s at is just trying to find who
you are and that will reflect in the things you do. That’s
the hardest thing in life – finding out who you are.”

Local Artist(s) Spotlight
2014-2015 Community Concerts Series
The 2014-2015 Community Concerts Series presents local
musicians offering great music, free to the public. MGS is
delighted to partner with Hosmer Library in Minneapolis to
offer four community concerts this year. These concerts feature
just a few of the many excellent guitarists we enjoy in the Twin
Cities, and represent the musical diversity that we love about the
guitar. Tune in to KFAI radio the Sunday morning before each
concert for an interview and on air performance with the artists.

Live radio interview on KFAI, Sunday, January 11, 9 a.m.
Reuben Ristrom
Reuben Ristrom has been
a major figure in jazz guitar
on the Twin Cities music
scene for nearly 50
years. His career spans all
facets of the music business:
night clubs, concerts, recording work, industrial shows
and jazz festivals locally
and all over the country and
Hawaii, a few sessions with
the Minnesota Orchestra, and all sorts of jobbing – solo and with
small groups. He also entertains seniors with his banjo and singing. His style ranges from Dixieland to main-stream jazz and he
has played with and recorded with some of the best in the business—locally and nationally. He records on his own label, T.C.
JAZZ, and a few releases with John Sheridan’s Dream Band on the
Florida based Arbors Jazz label.
Ristrom is a University of Minnesota graduate with a Bachelor
of Arts and Master of Fine Arts degree in studio art. After graduate school he decided to stay with music for a while and never
pursued an art teaching career.
Concerts are on Saturdays at 2 p.m., and are free and open
to the public. Hosmer Library is located at 347 E. 36th St.,
Minneapolis, 55408.
