– IN CONCERT –

Sergei Basshes
Classical Guitar
Saturday, August 14 · 3:00 p.m.

Sergei was born in China to Russian parents. When he was 14 years old, he emigrated to South America, and for four years resided in Santiago, Chile. His involvement with music began there as a bass player in several bands featuring ethnic Russian, Gypsy and South American styles of music.

He later moved to New York City, where he became a protégé of Vladimir Bodri, a close friend and promoter of Andres Segovia. Sergei also studied in California with George Sakellariou, one of the elect disciples of Segovia, and attended master classes by Miguel Abloniz, Abel Carlevaro, Alexander Lagoya and David Russell.

Sergei has been studying and playing classical guitar for more than forty years, and teaching for thirty years. His students have gone on to become good players, some attending conservatories, and some pursuing music careers.

Sergei has been performing and teaching on the Mendocino coast for the past twenty-five years.
