Since landing in NYC two years ago, the Italian classical guitarist Marco Cappelli (a student of Oscar Ghiglia) started to develop a unique style which includes avant garde compositions, improvisation, live-electronics, hard rock sounds, classic licks, and much more. This melting pot of sounds, is rarely heard on a classical guitar. At The Monkey he will present a program of his own through-composed/improvised music using the so-called Extreme Guitar, which has 8 sympathetic steel strings running under the regular 6 nylon strings.
