My old pals, Michael Newman and Laura Oltman – collectively known as the Newman & Oltman Guitar Duo – will be in Princeton tonight for a concert at Nassau Presbyterian Church.
The program will feature works by Spanish composers Isaac Albéniz and Manuel de Falla, Brazilian composers Paulo Bellinati and Celso Machado, Pulitzer Prize winner (and Princeton-raised) Paul Moravec, and several pieces created specifically for the duo by Cuban master Leo Brouwer – including, from what I understand, a world premiere.
Nassau Presbyterian Church is located at 61 Nassau Street. The concert begins at 7:30 p.m., and admission is free.
The event is part of the Princeton Summer Chamber Concerts series. For more information and a complete schedule, visit princetonsummerchamberconcerts.org.
