Tommaso Girotto www.tommasogirotto.com/ is an Australian guitarist whose playing is shaped by a broad musical education.
His studies have taken him from Australia to the UK and Germany, working with many of today's most respected teachers. He has been recognised in major international competitions and has appeared as a soloist at the Sydney Opera House. Tommaso is also passionate about introducing new music into the world and has collaborated with some of today's leading composers.
All in Twilight was borrowed as a title for the program from Torū Takemitsu's work for solo guitar. Takemitsu's exploration of colour and texture contrasts and compliments the deliberate use of space between notes - a concept known as "ma" in Japanese. This use of space also plays an important roll in the centre piece of the program, Sonata for Guitar, No.1. Crivici's new work was completed in the beginning of 2026 and draws upon his unique compositional style and a deep love and understanding of the work of J.S. Bach.
