This concert will feature the cross-cultural mix of Minnesota guitar virtuoso Steve Tibbetts and Norwegian hardanger fiddler Knut Hamre, as well as the Newman and Oltman Guitar Duo with the Turtle Island String Quartet in the world premiere of a new composition by Dusan Bogdanovic (himself an outstanding guitarist). Bogdanovic draws on American jazz, Byzantine music, Western classicism and his own Balkan roots.
