Check this video out: https://youtu.be/tZ-tB0-DzOQ About Anthony Cullins Anthony Cullins aka "The Fallbrook Kid," a young musical prodigy whose guitar playing ability is years beyond his age. Anthony's musical influences include R&B, funk, soul, rock, jazz, and blues prominently displayed in his eclectic improvisational style he calls "psychedelic soul music", ranging from Eddie Hazel and Jeff Beck to George Benson and Eric Johnson with dozens of influences in between. Anthony recently turned 21 years of age and is currently working on two studio albums, a live record, and beginning to hit the road! "Anthony has guitar skills reminiscent of young guitarists Joe Bonamassa and Jonny Lang." (Boogie Magazine) "Hearing and seeing Anthony perform alongside veteran musicians made it easy to forget that he is so young. If you haven't heard him play yet, find him!" - Annette Higby, Echo and Buzz " ... he further dazzled my senses with the playing maturity of someone way beyond his years, demonstrating a total command of the fretboard with fierce string bends, wicked vibrato, and a lick vocabulary akin to a guitarist that's been at it for decades." - Wayne Riker, San Diego Troubadour "A special young man. I'd seen him working a few times as a sideman with other artists, but recently I saw a video of him doing his own thing and I was blown away!

This week on Roundtable, we bring together a few journalists covering one of the things we love most about San Diego: food.

Le Consort invites you to the baroque era, in which the trio Sonata was the most popular chamber music formation. This whirlwind program will spotlight examples by famous composers such as Bach and Telemann, alongside some unjustly neglected Baroque masters, illustrating the immense expressive range and creativity of this repertoire. With a few strokes of the two violins and cello bows and animation of the harpsichord’s keys, let yourself be teleported from the Venice of Albinoni and Gentili to the Naples of Porpora, with a visit to Telemann and Bach in Germany. The program concludes with a magnificent setting of “Follia”—the era’s most recognizable melody, and one which still resonates today. A great journey awaits you! Le Consort on Facebook / Instagram
