Yamandú Costa: “The Guitar Is a Much Larger Instrument Than All Those Categories That We Make up, Which Are So Human and Earthly”

At Guitar Magazine, we want to create an inclusive perception of the guitar. Although we value classical guitar greatly, we equally want to remain diverse and embrace the many other schools of guitar, which arguably have some of the best guitar repertoire of the 20th century. This includes repertoire from Latin America and from southern Spain, and for this reason, we are excited to welcome an exceptional guest this month: Yamandú Costa.

Stephen Hough’s Highlights

We are delighted to present Stephen Hough as our Artist of the Month. He combines a distinguished career as a pianist with those of composer and writer. Named by The Economist as one of Twenty Living Polymaths, Hough was the first classical performer to be awarded a MacArthur Fellowship (2001) and was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the New Year’s Honours 2014. He was awarded Northwestern University’s 2008 Jean Gimbel Lane Prize in Piano, won the Royal Philharmonic Society Instrumentalist Award in 2010, and in 2016 was made an Honorary Member of RPS.
