Crossing Continents: Ricardo Curbelo and Fiona Harrison in Concert @ Lauderdale House | England | United Kingdom

Ricardo Curbelo (Harp, Cuatro, Maracas, Vocals)
“A sheer delight to see and listen to” (Arran Music Society, 2016)

Fiona Harrison, (Classical Guitar)
“… a musician of great sensitivity both to her instrument and the mood of the music … gifted with a superbly confident technique.” (Hampshire Chronicle)

Travel on a rich and exciting musical journey with these two fine soloists.
Innovative Latin American harpist, composer and poet, Ricardo Curbelo, combines traditional music from a variety of Latin American countries, together with his own, spellbinding compositions. Vibrant, energetic and jazzy pieces contrast with more classical, enchanting melodies and tender vocals. He is delighted to share this concert with wonderful classical guitarist, Fiona Harrison, who will also present a fascinating and varied programme of music, crossing cultures and centuries from Renaissance England through to contemporary Japan.
