\n Peppino D&rsquo\;Agostino doesn&rsquo\;t just play the guitar. \; He composes\, arranges\, collaborates\, improvises and has even been known to sing a song here and there in both English and Italian. \; Widely recognized and appreciated the world over as one of the premier guitarists anywhere D&rsquo\;Agostino will bring his unique style to Dana Point in this must see musical presentation. \; \; Peppino&rsquo\;s influences range from Chet Atkins to Paco de Lucia to Doc Watson and Leo Kottke. \; A native of Italy\, D&rsquo\;Agostino has made his considerable international mark as a musical artist on the guitar since he arrived in America a little over 25 years ago. The readers of Guitar Player Magazine voted him &ldquo\;Best Acoustic Guitarist&rdquo\; in 2007\, and the following year in Acoustic Guitar&rsquo\;s &ldquo\;People&rsquo\;s Choice Awards&rdquo\; \;he won a Bronze medal for Best Acoustic Album of All Time for his 2002 release Every Step of The Way (tying with Leo Kottke\, one of his prime inspirations). \; Another Bronze award was awarded as Fingerstyle Guitarist of the sameYear. As said above\, it&rsquo\;s not just his talent that makes D&rsquo\;Agostino so notable\, but what he does with it.
\n\n Peppino latest CD &ldquo\;Nine White Kites&rdquo\; has received rave reviews and is getting significant air play since it&rsquo\;s release in late 2010. \; For information and reservations call Lord Of The Strings Concerts at 949-842-2227 or go to the Lord Of The Strings website at www.LordOfTheStringsConcerts.com
