Sean Bennett, a lifelong musician, initially played classical pieces on piano and rock and roll on guitar. His experience backing an Elvis Impersonator led him to also play rock and roll on piano. Inspired by Beethoven’s innovative use of the piano, Sean incorporates some of Beethoven’s compositions into the night’s performance, highlighting the maestro’s impact on musical expression.
Matt Krolik fell in love with the classical guitar after being inspired by a performance by John Williams. Drawn to the challenge of learning pieces from the Golden Age of classical guitar, around the late 1800s and early 1900s, Matt will be performing selections, including works by Antonio Lauro, a Venezuelan guitarist who influenced a generation of classical musicians.
