Benefit Concert Featuring Grigory Goryachev: Tickets and Sponsorship Information

The benefit concert is sold out. To join the waiting list, please email info@esperanzafund.org.

Please join us at 7:30pm on Monday, December 6 in the ballroom of the Carnegie Institution of Washington (1530 P Street NW) for a private recital by Grigory Goryachev, a Russian-born prodigy of classical and flamenco guitar. Debuting at age nine in the concert halls of St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Minsk, “Grisha” has risen through the ranks of the New England Conservatory and toured the world—from Reykjavik to Jerusalem to Andalucía—to become one of the youngest and most explosive masters of his instrument. You may have heard music from his second album, Homenaje a Sabicas, in the recent Julia Roberts and Clive Owen film Duplicity.

The concert will be followed by a champagne reception and private art exhibit featuring the stunning oil paintings of twenty-two-year-old Teresa Oaxaca, an American-born and Florentine-trained classical painter in the Tenebrist style.
