Jim Falbo's concerts fuse classical and romantic music with many other styles and genres. Jim selects a wide array of pieces in concerts from his vast repertoire, including Latin, Spanish, and contemporary pieces on classical and acoustic guitar. His programs are a bit different than the norm for a classical music concert, as he favors playing many shorter tunes over long suites of music. His performances keep audiences and music lovers engaged with a style and technical ability that is lyrical and virtuosic from beginning to end. On any given night you might hear J.S. Bach, and Mozart pieces played next to upbeat Brazilian and South American tunes with contemporary artists like Eric Clapton, and the Beatles. Jim's concerts simply have something for everyone.
Classical Minnesota Public Radio host Steve Staruch describes Jim Falbo as "A true master...someone who has the chops to caress the listener into a seductive and gorgeous sound world." Jim Falbo began playing guitar at the age of 11 after growing up adoring Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, and 90's alternative music. His love for classical guitar came into fruition when his acclaimed guitar teacher Dean Harrington encouraged him to the technically challenging music of J.S. Bach and Agustin Barrios. Jim is a high-demand performer in various events throughout the Twin Cities, and upper midwest. He has put on a series of highly successful concerts at the James J. Hill House, and was a stand out performer in several Minnesota Guitar Society events in the past several years. His latest album "Latin American Guitar Legends" has been featured throughout the airwaves of Minnesota on 99.5 Classical MPR.
