Terry Pazmiño - Ecuadorian Guitarist
 Music from Central and South America
The compositions and performances of Pazmiño are the result of his constant search for his Ecuadorian/Andean roots as well as indigenous sources of South American music. In his youth he focused on Ecuadorian popular music, such as the sanjuanito, pasillo, capishca and yumbo. Subsequently, he traveled to Venezuela and France to study with three masters of the instrument: Antonio Lauro, Alirio Diaz and Alberto Ponce to receive international recognition and become the guitar embassador of Ecuador. In his NEGS recital he will present his own works and Ecuadorian traditional music arrangements, as well as works by Brazilian, Venezuelan and Paraguayan composers.
