Grammy Award-nominated guitarist Paul Galbraith will perform music by Debussy, Ravel, Bach.

Paul Galbraith's recording of the Complete Bach Violin Sonatas and Partitas (Delos) was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award in the category of Best Solo Instrumental Album. This 2-CD set was also chosen as one of the two best CDs of 1998 by Gramophone Magazine, which called it "a landmark in the history of guitar recordings." It received a Four Star rating in Stereo Review, and reached the TOP 10 on Billboard's classical charts.

Galbraith has been featured twice on National Public Radio's All Things Considered and numerous times on Performance Today. He made his New York début at the Frick Collection, receiving a rave review in the New York Times.
