Bogdanovic ANNOUNCEMENTS Grant Ruiz has composed the music and is performing live on stage for the Collaborative Theater Project’s production of Don Quixote (based on the two novels by Cervantes, and not Man of La Mancha). The production is full of action, comedy, pathos, and insight. You can get tickets and information at ctpmedford.org. Tickets are now on sale for our Friday, March 3 concert featuring Jâca at Grizzly Peak. Jâca is an exciting clarinet and classical guitar duo who will also be participating in a Britt Education residency to visit local schools March 1-3. The guitarist is Ashland’s own Jaxon Williams, who was initially trained by Joe Thompson and has become an international performer. This concert is highly recommended, so please tell (and bring) friends! Tickets are available at our website, guitarsocietyso.org. Kent Jensen in Salem is selling a 1972, hand-crafted 12-string guitar made by Ashland luthier W. B. Windt. He has dropped the price from $13K to $5K OBO! Windt was hired by Angus Bowmer, OSF’s founder, to be the theater company’s music director in 1953, a job he held until about 1972 (per this Mail Tribune article from 2011). Please contact kentknail@gmail.com for photos and more information if you’re interested.
