The West Sussex Guitar Orchestra, directed by Linda Kelsall-Barnett, is joined by special guest soloists including Amanda Cook and Sam Brown to dedicate an evening of classical guitar to Sasha Levtov, founder of the West Sussex Guitar Club, in the wonderful acoustic of Christ Church.

Renowned classical guitarists Amanda Cook and Sam Brown are both former students of Sasha Levtov and each began their career with the West Sussex Guitar Club, which he founded in 1993. Sasha sadly passed away in 2025 but he has left a wonderful legacy for the guitar. Guitar Harmony, New Gala Quartet, past students and club members Paul Thomas, Chris Sweatman and Lydia Hepworth and Jacob Wells-Luttrell will also be performing. Come and listen to the guitar in ensemble ...... in an eclectic mix of atmospheric, well loved repertoire, to include Pachelbel Canon in D, Sailing, The Barber of Seville Overture and Adelita, to name but a few.
