The Sydney Guitar Collective (SGC) was established in early 2023 through the generous sponsorship of Simon Powis, founder of Classical Guitar Corner. The
sponsorship provided a platform for emerging professional musicians to continue pursuing their passion for chamber ensemble performance beyond their
university studies.
Since its formation, SGC has steadily expanded its performance profile and now seeks to act as an ambassador for both the classical guitar and guitar ensemble.
Looking ahead, the ensemble aims to develop educational initiatives that introduce classical guitar to regional communities and groups with limited access
to music education.
SGC is led by Musical Director Dr Janet Agostino and features Manuel Diewald, Tobias Dracoulis, Jonathan Moran, Reede Palmer and Alexander Frendo, a group
of Sydney based classical guitarists active as performers and educators.
Limited seating for 50 guests in a lovely home with a performance space and comfortable seating. The performance will begin at 6pm and will be followed by dinner and drinks (provided) and a chance to mingle.
Hosts Bill and Libby want to offer opportunities for Canberra audiences to share their passion for the classical guitar, its varied and interesting repertoire and for the very high level of talent present in the region.
