LEWISTON — Guitarist/composer Cristian Amigo and drummer Gustavo Aguilar will give a concert on Friday, March 4, at Bates College.

The concert is open to the public at no cost, but reservations are required through the Bates ticketing website, www.batestickets.com.

Amigo is an American player, composer and producer who explores the spaces between Western art musics — classical and jazz — and popular music. Known as an acoustic and electric guitarist with an improvising bent, Amigo writes and performs avant chamber music; electronic music; music for opera, theater, film and performance pieces; and American roots music.

 A percussionist and composer, Aguilar has honed his musicianship for almost two decades. His commitment to combining notated and improvised elements has earned him the reputation as an “intuitive, methodical mystic.”

 The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m.  in the Olin Arts Center Concert Hall, 75 Russell St. For more information, call 786-6135 or e-mail olinarts@bates.edu.
