CGT + MG3

NEW STUDIO RELEASE CELEBRATES 10 YEARS!

Featuring six virtuoso guitarists from three countries (Canada, Belgium, and US), California Guitar Trio (CGT) and Montreal Guitar Trio (MG3) fuse over 50 years of combined performing experience into one unique six-by-6-string ‘phenomensemble’. In a pleasantly surprising way, CGT’s steel stringed-guitars blend naturally with MG3’s nylon-stringed guitars, as each trio’s fret boards chase the others’ original compositions and new arrangements of progressive rock, world, jazz, and classical music.

NEW STUDIO RELEASE CELEBRATES 10 YEARS!

Featuring six virtuoso guitarists from three countries (Canada, Belgium, and US), California Guitar Trio (CGT) and Montreal Guitar Trio (MG3) fuse over 50 years of combined performing experience into one unique six-by-6-string ‘phenomensemble’. In a pleasantly surprising way, CGT’s steel stringed-guitars blend naturally with MG3’s nylon-stringed guitars, as each trio’s fret boards chase the others’ original compositions and new arrangements of progressive rock, world, jazz, and classical music.

Inspired, in 2009, by an impromptu studio session together in Montreal, CGT and MG3 released a live recording in 2011, landed showcases at numerous arts presenter conferences, and sustained co-bill touring throughout North America. Their latest studio release, In A Landscape, refreshes the Trios’ touring schedule in the coming seasons.

Like their performances, the members of the ensemble offer a variety of configurations, leading guitar-oriented workshops, school performances, masterclasses, and demonstrations for aspirant and seasoned musicians. CGT/MG3 is the perfect concordance for festivals and performing arts centers.
