Objectives: To post concerts by guitar societies, music series, or individual artists. Help me update this page by emailing: admin@classicalguitarcanada.ca. I’m hoping this will be a useful tool for artists and agents planning to concertize in Canada allowing them to see who is presenting and where. If no link is available for the concert it will be as plain text or you will get a (via.www) to show where I found out about the concert. I’m trying to credit the source material so people can explore outside of this site…
