60-plus-year-old Harmony archtop guitar: anybody interested?
Before I put it up for sale on eBay, might any MMO guitar players be interested in acquiring my Harmony Broadway archtop acoustic guitar, with hard case? Research indicates this variation was built between 1944 and 1951. Let me know! - Tate

World-class Guitar+Cello concert Thursday evening, Nov 21
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! These two are great players. They also consistently put together interesting programs of music. Their concerts are always a lot of fun besides showcasing world-class musicianship. It seems almost unreasonable that one can hear such great performances FOR FREE!! - Ray
Dances and Melodies of Spain and Latin America in the Library’s Great Hall -- St. Thomas Univ, St. Paul campus, Thursday Nov 21, 7 PM
“It's music like you've (almost) never heard it before . . .”
The Arpeggione Duo of guitarist Dr. Christopher Kachian and cellist Dr. Thomas Schönberg will perform in the Great Hall, located on the second floor of O’Shaughnessy-Frey Library Center on the St. Paul campus of the University of St. Thomas. The duo will perform a variety of pieces from Spain, Ecuador, Brazil, and Argentina.
This marks the second time the library¹s Great Hall, noted for its excellent acoustics, stained-glass windows and vaulted ceiling, will be used for a concert.
Schönberg and Kachian, who are educators as well as performers, formed the Arpeggione Duo after meeting at the Guitar Festival of Sollentuna, Sweden, in 2004.
They tour annually and have recorded three albums. Samples can be heard here http://www.arpeggioneduo.com/
Schönberg is a native of Sweden and was accepted to the Royal Music Academy of Stockholm at age 13. He received his doctorate at the University of Hartford, Conn., and is dean of the Lidingo School of Music in Sweden. He performs throughout Europe, Asia and the United States on a Guarnerius cello built in 1711.
Kachian, whose doctorate is from the University of Minnesota, heads the Guitar Studies Program at St. Thomas and in 2011 was inducted into the renowned Sigma Alpha Iota International Music Fraternity<http://www.sai-
