Virtuoso guitarist Peppino D’Agostino comes to 6OTS
OXFORD – 6 On The Square (6OTS) is now accepting reservations for the very talented, Peppino D’Agostino, who will be performing Saturday at 7:30 p.m. D’Agostino’s sound is what he describes as “Minestrone Music” - music that reflects his Italian heritage while honoring the complexity and versatility of the guitar. Peppino can sometimes be seen with an egg shaker or maraca in his right hand while continuing to play his guitar with his left. Get ready to be amazed!
This Italian born, virtuoso acoustic guitarist has been praised by the San Francisco Chronicle as “a poet … among the best talents around;” voted “Best Acoustic Guitarist” in Guitar Player Magazine’s “2007 Readers’ Choice Awards” and applauded by the San Diego Times as “potentially a giant of the acoustic guitar.”
D’Agostino said, “I want to stretch the limits of the acoustic guitar in terms of melody, harmony and rhythm, and add percussive effects while addressing those first three elements. Ultimately, my mission is to touch people in a heartfelt way both emotionally and intellectually.”
