Montenegrian Guitar Duo in Concert
The MONTENEGRIN GUITAR DUO is frequently invited to prestigious international events (e.g. Concertgebouw- Amsterdam, Festival Internacional de Musica y Danza de Granada, Kotor Art Festival, Koblenz Guitar Festival, A Tempo music festival, Guitar Foundation of America International Guitar Convention, Shenyang International Guitar Festival- China, Daejeon International Guitar Festival- Korea), for recitals and concerts with orchestras, as well as for masterclasses, lectures on transcribing Bachs music and adjudicating competitions.
Their performances have been highly acclaimed by both audience and critics who praise their historically informed performances of J. S. Bachs English Suites in a new, fresh approach on two guitars. Their repertoire includes the transcriptions of ancient music and original compositions dating from the 19th, 20th and 21st century, with a special emphasis on the contemporary music originally written for two guitars, as well as improvisation. MGDs ultimate goal is to broaden the guitar repertoire and further integrate guitar in the big family of classical instruments.
Their debut CD with works by Domeniconi, Piazzolla, and Bogdanovic was published in 2013 by the Montenegrin Music Centre. This first of two CDs of Bachs English Suites, a world premiere of this unique project, transcribed by the duo, was published in 2015 for Naxos Records, sending critics all over the world raving. English Suites Vol. 2 was recorded in October 2016 and will be released in 2017.
