“Home“ by Laura Snowden: Remembering Julian Bream

This video is part of our online series: Remembering Julian Bream. The New York Guitar Festival invited some of our favorite artists to reflect on the life and musical legacy of the Grammy Award-winning classical guitarist and lutenist Julian Bream, who died at his home in Wiltshire, England on August 14, 2020, at the age of 87.  Laura Snowden was a student of Julian Bream, and was entrusted with the premieres of several pieces that Bream commissioned.  The London-based guitarist is also a member of the folk band Tir Eolas.   Her compositions include choral music as well as works for guitar.  The NYGF and the performing artists are asking viewers to donate to MusiCares.
