Washington Post-praised guitarist David Rogers explores the musical landscape of 16th-century Spain through the lens of Valencian court musician Luis Milán. This program blends Arab and European influences with an organic, improvisational spirit that is both historically rich and deeply moving. 
Also featured will be Sephardic and North African music that originates in the Andalusian traditions.The second part of the program will feature 20th and 21st century Spanish music which blends these traditions to make the Spanish and Flamenco music of today.
Poetry readings will punctuate the afternoon with readings from the early and modern Spanish traditions.
Termed, 'a prominent guitarist,' by the New York Times, David Rogers maintains an active solo and ensemble career as a classical guitarist and performer on early plucked strings. The Washington Post has praised his ‘astonishingly florid’ solo improvisational passage work.He has been called a 'modern master’ of the classical guitar' by 20th Century Guitar.Classics today.com has praised his ‘first rate instrumental artistry,’ and the Lute Society of America Quarterly has called his technique ‘formidable.’He is an endorsing artist for Aquila Strings, (Italy) and his compositions has been featured in major guitar magazines such as Fingerstyle Guitar in the United States and Akustic Gitarre in Germany.
David has recorded for Dorian, Callisto and Focus Recordings. He has taught master classes throughout North America, including the San Francisco Conservatory, The University of Southern California and The Interlochen National Arts Camp.

REVIEWS
“...Playing the vihuela (a guitar relative), David Rogers held everything together with a few poignant plucks, vigorous strumming and the occasional astonishingly florid solo...” 
The Washington Post
“...Music to listen to, be amazed by, and to dream upon.”
Akustik Gitarre 6/07
“...first rate instrumental artistry...”
ClassicToday.com
"...David Rogers played his vihuela (a 16th-century precursor to the guitar) not in the tasteful, restrained way of early music groups, but like a lead guitarist in a rock band. He laced the likes of 'De el pobo' with improvised, speedy solos way up into the wailing region of the fingerboard..."
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"A modern master of the classical guitar... David Rogers has a remarkable grasp of 16th Century Baroque guitar music
