Classical guitarists are real-life Wolverines, said Adam Levin, an internationally acclaimed classical guitarist who will be performing with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra this weekend.
“We have really hard fingernails!” Levin said with a laugh. “Our fingernails are basically like having five picks. They allow for a lot of dexterity, speed, and control. But I was not blessed with the strongest nails. So, I have to reinforce them with acrylic, which is a powdery substance, and super glue.”
Levin’s performance with the orchestra will be the fifth in a series of concerts livedstreamed from Skyview Concert Hall into living rooms around the globe.

| 02/04/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) Nobody plays the classical guitar quite like Elliot Fisk. Perhaps that s why Luciano Berio chose to write one of his famously difficult Sequenzas for him. From the opening bars of Scarlatti sonata, Fisk puts the listener on notice that this is not going to be an album of quiet background music to play during dinner (as so many classical guitar recordings seem destined to become). This is an album of powerfully, even theatrically, performed mus

04/15/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) Quite simply put, as a guitarist Eliot Fisk is in a class by himself. He plays the instrument like no one else, can create an array of timbres, reveal the architecture of a work, and project an expressive range beyond anyone playing the instrument today.
