CHRISTOPHER PARKENING - GUITARIST |
|
Autographed and inscribed 8” x 10” photograph of the American virtuoso guitarist. A pupil of Celedonio and Pepe Romero in Los Angeles, he made his recital debut in 1959. At the age of 15, he was the youngest member of Andres Segovia’s master class at Berkley. The guitarist entered USC as a cello student of Gabor Retjo and also studied with Gregor Piatigorsky. His 2nd year, he was given a post as the first guitar instructor at the University, eventually leading to his hiring as professor of guitar there from 1971-1975. He launched his career with a U.S. concert tour in 1969 and eventually left academia for a concert career, where he has become one of the most recorded musicians of all time. Parkening at one point left the instrument, only to return. |
