Cornelia Monske and Olaf van Gonnissen will present the seventh "Historical Guitar Forum" on the theme of the "Spanish School" with the unusual combination of guitar and marimba. They will play and present a program specially arranged for this instrumentation with Spanish piano compositions from the late 19th century by Enrique Granados and Isaac Albéniz. Cornelia Monske has been a professor at the Hamburg University of Music and Drama since 2007.
Thanks to a scholarship from the German Music Council, she was accepted into the national selection of "Concerts by Young Artists" and premiered Tilo Medek's "Concerto for Percussion and Orchestra", among other works. Born in Tiengen/Upper Rhine, Olaf Van Gonnissen became known through his concert activities in the "Frankfurter Gitarrenduo" with Michael Teuchert. From 1999 to 2023, Olaf Van Gonnissen was a professor at the Hamburg University of Music and Drama and is also a lecturer at various masterclasses and festivals, a juror at many international competitions and co-editor of the new Karl Scheit Gitarren Edition UE.
