Guitar
quartet attraction from Australia, super-group of mixed national
genealogies, and of adequate, seemingly distant and therefore unlinkable
authors' sources, which are in an extraordinary serious,
but fun way picked on the stage as well as on renowned CD editions,
group Saffire (Karin Schaupp, Slava Grigoryan, Gareth Koch, Leonard
Grigoryan), is an association of expressly independent virtuoso
of classic guitar, joined by chance for one concert in 2002, with
already formed and highly evaluated individual careers, but since
then they are working as enthusiastic chamber musicians with mutual
open appetite for contemporary composing production, specially
including works dedicated specifically to their ensemble, authors’ break-through
events of at least one of their own member (Gareth Koch), but also
for certain rock classics – in that sense, their version
of Deep Purple, number „Highway Star“ is famous?!
Cherishing their own interpretative natures inside such powerfully
organized chamber guitar all-star gathering, Saffire quartet
has during the last couple of years from its inception, performed
industriously throughout Australian continent, New Zealand, Asia,
United States of America and Europe, recording alongside enthusiastically
evaluated records with provocative program, in a unique instrumental
combination of three classic guitars and specimen like "Good",
pedal steel, baritone and flamenco guitar, with some others,
for their completely spectacular playing show, in the honor of
creative meeting of classic, ethno music, folk and rock.
Concert is realised with help of Australian Embassy in Belgrade.
Executive producer: BELEF – Center.
