Phil Goldenberg

Classical Guitar

About

Performing as a guitar soloist Phil Goldenberg, has played in numerous festivals and recital halls across the United States. Most recently, Phil was awarded the 1st prize at the Charlottesville International Classical Guitar Competition, receiving a near perfect score for his performance of Capricho Arabe by Francisco Tárrega.

Earlier this year, Phil won the first prize - Peter Segal Award - in the 2018 Philadelphia Classical Guitar International Competition. Judges remarked on his "considerable sense of drama and varied color and dynamic range," as well as his sense of "pleasing calm, juxtaposed by moments of technical brilliance."

In 2015, Phil was a fellowship recipient at the Crown of the Continent guitar festival in Bigfork, Montana after winning first prize in the James Stroud Classical Guitar Competition. At that festival, he gave solo concerts and workshops, and collaborated with top musicians across all genres.
