HCC Guitar Series with Stephanie Jones

Description

The HCC Guitar Series provides an opportunity for our community to experience the artistry of world-class musicians right here at HCC's Dale Mabry Campus. Sponsored by the campus Student Government Association, the series has been fortunate to host classical guitarists including Pepe Romero, Jason Vieaux, members of the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet, Jorge Caballero, Beijing Duo, SoloDuo and Carlos Barbosa-Lima. The series also includes the first prize winner of the Guitar Foundation of America’s International annual guitar competition along with other talented performers whose classical guitar careers are ascending.

Stephanie won first prize in both the Uppsala International Guitar Festival Competition and the Hannabach Guitar Competition. She was also a finalist in the Deutscher Gitarrenpries and the Salzburg International Guitar Festival. In 2014, through the Fine Music Network National Competition, Stephanie was awarded the Young Virtuoso of the Year.

Stephanie has performed extensively around the globe, including three Australian tours, a New Zealand tour, and with the Weimar Guitar Quartet, a Germany and Slovenian tour. She continues to travel regularly for both international concert and festival invitations. Stephanie has released two albums, “Colours of Spain” (2015), and “Bach, the Fly, and the Microphone” (2009).
