1st December
Mexican classical guitarist, Morgan Szymanski, invited me to Bolivar Hall to hear him, a pianist and a singer in Balada Mexicana. A Celebration of Classical Music.
Morgan Szymanski
Morgan has asked me to respond to his music through my artwork for a project he is running: The Sketches of Mexico Project. The above sketch of Morgan playing the captivating and beautiful Mexican music was drawn during the performance.
The pianist
Unfortunately the pianist due to play was ill, a marvelous pianist took her place but I didn’t catch his name. Tenor Jesus Leon sang accompanied by Morgan and by the piano.

Today I start work on a painting on canvas in oils and acrylic for Morgan Szymanski for The Sketches of Mexico Project.
Still a chance to hear Morgan Szymanski if you live near Sleaford at Sleaford Music Club, 9/12/2011.
