Description
Join us for an amazing evening of guitar wizardry as BMCA welcomes the legendary Tony McManus on Thursday, July 16, at 7:30 pm. Hailed as the "best Celtic guitarist in the world", McManus is renowned for his uncanny ability to transpose the intricate ornamentation of fiddles and bagpipes onto the acoustic guitar. Audience members will experience a masterclass in fingerstyle performance that seamlessly bridges the gap between traditional Scottish roots, classical elegance, and contemporary jazz. This intimate performance in our Gale Jackson Theatre offers a rare opportunity to see one of Guitar Player Magazine's "50 Transcendent Guitarists" in the heart of Black Mountain. Tickets are available now for just $25, so be sure to reserve your seat for a night of world-class musicianship. Says famed guitarist Tommy Emmanuel, “Tony’s music is beyond beautiful, it's perfect."
