The Philadelphia Classical Guitar Society series returns at 3 pm Saturday, January 31, with David Leisner, an extraordinarily versatile musician with a multi-faceted career as an electrifying performing artist, a distinguished composer, and a master teacher.

According to American Record Guide, Leisner is “among the finest guitarists of all time.” His career began auspiciously with top prizes in both the 1975 Toronto and 1981 Geneva International Guitar Competitions. He has toured around the U.S. and the world, including his solo debut with the Atlanta Symphony, a major tour of Australia and New Zealand, and debuts and reappearances in China, Japan, the Philippines, Germany, Hungary, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Sweden, Ireland, the U.K., Italy, Czech Republic, Greece, Puerto Rico, and Mexico.  

Next, kick off the Valentine’s season with “Love, Always: An Evening of Romance Inspired by the Great American Songbook, Broadway, and Classic Pop” at 7:30 pm Friday, February 13. Keith and Amy Spencer warmly invite you to a heartfelt concert filled with love songs that have stood the test of time. The music captures every shade of love, from first sparks to lifelong devotion, and is brought to life by an extraordinary jazz ensemble made up of some of the finest musicians in the Philadelphia area.

All performances take place in the Zlock Performing Arts Center on the Newtown Campus at 275 Swamp Rd. in Newtown, where there is ample free parking. Come early for refreshments at the Zlock Lobby Bar.  Learn more and purchase tickets at bucks.edu/tickets.
