For the love of guitar
The Classical Guitar Society of Calgary (CGSC) was established in 1974 with the primary goal of fostering enthusiasm for and exploration of classical guitar music. Our dedicated community has transformed Calgary into a significant classical guitar hub in Canada. We bring some of the best classical guitarists from around the world to our city to perform and teach masterclasses. We celebrate and promote our homegrown talent in an annual showcase concert and through performances at different local establishments. We nurture community via our guitar orchestra and our monthly social gatherings. It is our hope we can pass our passion along to you, so that you can also experience the joy of classical guitar.
Our concert season is made possible with the generous support of our donors, our members, Calgary Arts Development, and the Alberta Foundation for the Arts. If you are a donor of $25 or above, we will gladly offer you a tax receipt for your contribution.
