The Neurosciences Performing Arts Program
present

Improvisational Maestros Jeff Linsky and Michael Spiro will join as a "tour de force" at The Neurosciences Institute, 10640 John Jay Hopkins Drive, San Diego 92121, on Friday June 12th at 8pm.

This is a concert not to be missed. Jeff and Michael are both consummate soloists in their own rights but together they will wow San Diego audiences with their musical creativity and virtuosic style.

Linsky, a San Diego local, has played all over the world - literally.

"I have had the good fortune of performing in many of the world's finest concert halls, from the Sibelius Theater in Helsinki to the Esplanade Theater in Singapore. Because of my unique improvisational approach to the solo guitar, I have also been invited to present master classes and workshops at music schools around the world, including the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, The Musicians Institute in Hollywood, Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, State University of New York, Escola de Música e Tecnologia in São Paulo, the Sibelius Institute in Helsinki - the list goes on and on.

Privately, I have performed for Presidents and Royalty, even the Dalai Lama, as well as the poorest of the poor. We regularly visit the leprosy patients of Kalaupapa, the remote Hill Tribe People of Northern Thailand, and the "favelas" of Brazil. I've played with gypsies in Cologne, recorded with bossa nova legend Sergio Augusto in Sao Paulo, met and performed with many of my heroes - you get the idea. It has been a very rewarding, charmed life of musical adventures."
