After his dazzling North Bay debut at the WCT this past spring, where he receivedfour standing ovations, guitarist Philippe Bertaud returns to the WCT for avery special performance on Wednesday, October 29th at 8 PM. Philippe began playing the guitar at fourteen. Jazz and classical guitar studies at the National Conservatory of Nice led Philippe to refine his art of harmony and composition under the renowned composer Jacques Charpentier. At sixteen he successfully began recitals, playing Bach, Mozart and Scarlatti among others. In 1990, inspired by his travel in Asia, Philippe began composing his own music and developed his personal language. This was the birth of Philippe’s new style “without border,” which uses a wide array of music elements from around the world. His eclectic taste in music (rock, jazz, ethnic and contemporary music, etc.) gave him experience with many styles from jazz to experimental music, which is reflected in his many CDs. While he tours the world appearing at such events as The Montreal Jazz festival, Euro San Francisco, Winter Festival, Rio De Janeiro and numerous others,it's venues like the WCT that offer Philippe a more intimate experience with the audience. Tickets will be available in advance {before going on sale} by calling Stephanie at the WCT office 707-459-0895. Prices are just $12.00. This performance is by special arrangement so WCT passes may not be used. |
