The Grammy Award-nominated Texas Guitar Quartet is set to be in concert next weekend at the Bankhead Theater in Livermore for the final show of Del Valle Fine Arts’ 2025-26 season.
The group of Isaac Bustos, Joseph Palmer, Jay Kacherski and Alejandro Montiel have performed worldwide and are known for their “dazzling virtuosity and joyful music making”, DVFA officials said. Their Grammy nod came in 2022 for Best Choral Performance for their work on the ensemble for “The Singing Guitar”.
The Texas Guitar Quartet concert in Livermore will showcase the music of Spain and Latin America, including pieces such as Gioachino Rossini’s “The Barber of Seville (Overture)”, “Córdoba” by Isaac Albéniz, “Alborada del Gracioso” by Maurice Ravel, “Intermezzo” by Manuel Maria Ponce and a suite of selections from Georges Bizet’s “Carmen”.
The show is set for 3 p.m. next Saturday (April 25) in the Bankhead in downtown Livermore. Tickets are available at delvallefinearts.org or livermorearts.org. The guitarists will mingle with the audience at a complimentary sparkling wine reception after the concert, according to DVFA.
Each concert-goer will receive a free “sunflower grow bag” with sunflower seeds, composted soil, magic grow drops and a “Verdant Reverie” CD to enhance plant growth, courtesy of DVFA, Fertile Groundworks and the Livermore-Amador Valley Garden Club. DVFA is also in the midst of a donation-matching campaign through April 30 via the Community Health and Education Foundation.
