The Australian-born artist, Craig Ogden, is one of the most prominent guitarists of his generation.
He made his debut at the
Royal Albert Hall with the Philharmonia Orchestra performing
Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez in a Classic FM live broadcast
and has since regularly appeared at all of the major London
venues as well as those in most countries around the world.
This will be Craig's second visit to The Courtyard in only a few months. You can also catch him here performing with the Northern Chamber Orchestra on September 19 2007.
"Guitar lightly amplified, he gives a spangled gleam or a sunburnt caress to every note." The Times
