Venice, CA – On Friday, August 28, 2009, the G2 Gallery will present The Gonzalo Bergara Quartet. The all acoustic Gonzalo Bergara Quartet plays a modern variant of 1930's Django Reinhardt-inspired Gypsy Jazz. Composer and lead guitarist Bergara mixes cascades of arpeggios with the sounds of Paris and his native Argentina and is supported by an ace clarinetist and a honed rhythm section. Bergara is fiery and focused, while the hard-swinging band takes the audience for a ride.
The Gonzalo Bergara Quartet is formed by Gonzalo Bergara on lead acoustic guitar, Rob Hardt (Strunz And Farah)on clarinet and tenor sax, Jeffrey Radaich on rhythm guitar and Brian Netzley on upright bass.
The event begins at 6PM with a reception followed by music beginning at 7PM.
