David Russell, classical guitar

The Baltimore Classical Guitar Society presents classical guitarist David Russell, who is world renowned for his superb musicianship and inspired artistry, having earned the highest praise from audiences and critics alike. Russell appears regularly at prestigious halls in main cities such as New York, London, Tokyo, Los Angeles, Madrid, Toronto, and Rome. His love of his craft resonates through his flawless and seemingly effortless performance and the attention to detail and provocative lyrical phrasing suggest an innate understanding of what each composer was working to achieve, bringing to each piece a sense of adventure. Russell received a Grammy award for his CD “Aire Latino” in the category of best instrumental soloist in classical music.

The New York Times wrote about his performance: “… Mr. Russell made his mastery evident without ever deviating from an approach that places musical values above mere display. It was apparent to the audience throughout the recital that Mr. Russell possesses a talent of extraordinary dimension.”
