Continuing its 49th Season, the UNLV Performing Arts Center resumes its celebration of 20 years of classical guitar artistry, welcoming the return of the Montreal Guitar Trio (MG3) on Friday, Feb. 6 at 7:30 p.m. The trio will perform in the Judy Bayley Theatre.
MG3 surprises, amazes, exalts, and ignites audiences with their dynamic and breathtaking stage presence. For more than 25 years, these multi-instrumentalists have sung and played the violin, mandolin, bass, and accordion – making their way into our hearts.
Their music ranges from Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Rossini, and Falla to Metheny, Haden, Tormé, Guaraldi, and even Piazzolla, De Lucia, Gismonti, Radiohead, the Beatles, Rush and Bowie. They also perform music closer to home, such as Jorane, Dompierre, and Lhasa de Sela, as well as their own original compositions. However, above all, they pay tribute to the great Ennio Morricone, every time and always.
The guitar aces Sébastien Deshaies, Glenn Lévesque and Marc Morin who make up MG3 continue to perform hundreds of concerts in the most renowned concert halls in America and around the world, including the legendary Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the BB King Blues Club in New York and the UNLV Performing Arts Center.
