GOSHEN — Goshen College present International Guitar Night at 7:30 p.m. March 9 at the Goshen College Music Center.

A touring guitar festival, International Guitar Night brings together interesting and innovative acoustic guitar luminaries for an evening of solos, duets and quartets that highlight the dexterity and diversity within the world of acoustic guitar.

The 24th-anniversary lineup includes:

• Vietnamese Thu Le’s nylon string artistry stretches from classical to contemporary with her unique blend of Vietnamese and Western musical influences.

• Brazilian Marco Pereira, a composer and performer, first toured with International Guitar Night in its early days and returns for his final go-round in 2024, with his tapestry of bossa nova and classical styles.

• Australian Minnie Marks, a blues slide guitarist and singer, is not only new to International Guitar Night but will be making her North American debut.
