Katona Twins: Guitar virtuosos - Classical/Jazz/Gypsy/Tango/Rock/Pop
Details
Critically acclaimed by the Daily Telegraph as "the classical world's best known guitar duo", Peter and Zoltán Katona effortlessly transfer from classical (such as Bach) into tango, jazz and gypsy swing, into pop and rock.
The twins combine flamenco finger picking techniques with the energetic stage presence of lead guitarists; they have toured the world and performed live to half a million people in arenas across Europe.

START TIME
The music will likely start at 19:30 but in order to get seats (and to sit together), I recommend us arriving at the Holywell Music Room at 19:00.
I will likely be in the Kings Arms pub at 18:15 so we could meet there then walk round the corner to the music room. Details to follow - see the MEETING UP section below.
SEATING & VENUE
The seats won't be allocated, so it's about us turning up early and grabbing a bench if we want to be together/in the same area. The Holywell Music Room is a lovely space and many musicians perform acoustically - i.e. no amplification required.
Built in 1748, the Holywell Music Room is said to be the oldest purpose-built music room in Europe, and hence Britain's first concert hall.

Feel free to join me at the Kings Arms pub at prior to walking round to the music room which is very close by.
