About

I am a classical guitarist with a passion for emotive performance and cross-cultural dialog within the music. I discovered classical guitar at the 2019 Denver International Guitar Festival, where I heard elements of jazz, flamenco, South American folk and tango all fuse beautifully with Western Art Music traditions to create a wondrous and inspiring sound.

I began studies immediately, mentored by Dr. Patrick Sutton and Roger Harmon. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I took the opportunity of extra time to complete a BFA in guitar performance and thereafter begin my graduate studies at Lamont School of Music. In June 2023 I was awarded a Master of Music degree in Classical Guitar Performance and have since been busy touring throughout the region as a soloist and in chamber groups.

Music

Classical Guitarist Craig Winston presents a solo concert featuring music by Antonio Lauro (Venezuela), Manuel Maria Ponce (Mexico), and Eduardo Sainz de la Maza (Spain). These 20th century composers worked to create a fusion of their national musical cultures with broader influences of classical music aesthetics from Europe. Experience this emotive, energetic, and colorful program of solo guitar music.
