Kenny Hill Livestream Concert
Kenny Hill is primarily known as a classical guitar maker. Born in San Jose and living in the coastal mountains, he has been making fine and innovative guitars for over 50 years in his workshop near Santa Cruz California, and in other design and manufacturing projects around the world.
He is also a classical guitarist, having been playing and performing continuously throughout his career as a luthier.
Now, in the past few years he has been writing original music for classical guitar and developing as a composer. Although he has been interested, absorbed and active in many different kinds of music throughout his life, it wasn’t until these later “retirement years” that he has found the time and focus to get down to composing and playing all of this new music.
This program represents the music composed over this last two year period, starting around the 2020 covid lockdown and extending right up to the last few weeks. This music has been published in 3 volumes, Songs from Home, Stolen Moments Suite and Lost and Found, all available from GSP.
