The Library's Autumn Concert Series takes place on Fridays from September 4 to October 23. Each concert will begin at 1 p.m. in the Winn Room. Doors will open 15 minutes prior to the performance. On September 11, we will have Alex Guillen on the guitar, performing a range of flamenco, classical, and Latin standards.
Alex Guillen grew up in Chula Vista in a Mexican-American household where music wasn't something you watched — it was something that happened. Spanish guitar at family gatherings. Mariachi at neighborhood celebrations. Boleros on the radio. He studied formally at Berklee College of Music. He trained with flamenco masters Diego Corriente, Manuel Valencia, and José Antonio Rodríguez. He worked with jazz guitarists Bruce Arnold, Larry Koonse, and Peter Sprague, and studied under Latin/world fusion pioneer Jorge Strunz and Latin jazz legend Chucho Valdés.
