This is a question often asked by those responsible for the conservation and enhancement of ancient instruments, both in museums and in private collections.

The prestigious luthier and guitar-restorer John Ray spoke about this dilemma -focused on guitar - during the Badalona 2017 Guitar Conference, the event organized by our association on the bicentennial of the great luthier Antonio de Torres.

In this interesting lecture, John Ray also explained to us the main difficulties involved in restoring a historic guitar and some of the techniques he uses in his work.

"Don't let the music stop!"

 

This has been Ljubica Bukvić's desire - and ours too - at this year's Autumn Guitar Concert, held with only 5 people in attendance due to COVID-19-related restrictions, but with many more live viewers on our YouTube channel.

You are watching at one of the pieces that Ljubica performed. To see the full video of the concert, click below.

Unfortunately, these events planned for this year have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic:

  • Badalona Guitar Festival 2020
  • V International Competition for Young Interpreters
  • Young Talents' Concert
  • Summer Guitar Concert.

We celebrated ONLINE our traditional Autumn Concert, with Ljubica Bukvic.
