Celebrating Latin music from Europe as well as North, South, and Central America, Adam will be assisted by Geoffrey Day, violin, and Lan Lam Day, keyboard.The renowned American magazine Classical Guitar called him “a virtuoso at the top of his game” and CBC music described him as an “ardent ambassador for classical guitar,” including him on their list of the top 30 musicians in Canada under 30 years old. Adam has commissioned over two dozen new works since 2019 and recorded five albums with the Analekta, Atma, and Leaf music record labels. His album Focus, dedicated to new Canadian music for two guitars, was awarded “classical recording of the year” at the East Coast Music Awards in 2021.
