Hiroya Tsukamoto - Fingerstyle Guitarist

Saturday, April 6, 2024  11:00 a.m.
Library Community Room
Join us for this eclectic, immersive, and mesmerizing performance by international acclaimed guitarist and songwriter, Hiroya Tsukamoto. He will take us on an innovative, impressionistic journey filled with earthy, organic soundscapes that impart a mood of peace and tranquility. 

Hiroya is a Japanese-born fingerstyle guitarist who moved to the United States in 2000 to attend the Berklee College of Music. Needless to say, he’s not only a dizzyingly agile fingerpicker, but a soulful and transcendent performer, with compositions that combine instrumental guitar work with lyrical performance and spoken stories from his life. Tsukamoto has been recognized for his talents on stages such as at Blue Note in New York City, Japanese National Television and United Nations, and by scoring second place at the International Fingerstyle Guitar Championship both in 2018 and 2022.
