Our very own YMS guitar quartet, comprising Rosie Bennet, Daniel Penney, Sergio Bucheli and Kevin Loh, worked with William Kanengiser of the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet and René Izquierdo of Cuba/USA at the 23rd International Symposium, held in Iserlohn, Germany from 10 to 17 August. The festival is now one of Europe’s largest and of international renown, attracting the world’s leading international guitarists and ensembles.

Rosie, Daniel, Sergio and Kevin were selected to play as part of the final concert, performing Béla Bartók's Six Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm (arranged by YMS guitar teacher Richard Wright). Kevin was also selected to play a solo piece by Federico Moreno Torroba, the first movement of his Sonatina.
