This is Felicidade by Jobim. While this piece won’t be on our program, it gives you a great sense of Rupert’s style, tone, and musicality.

We’re excited to welcome Rupert back to Des Moines after nearly a decade. Join us for the concert, the masterclass, or both.

At the masterclass, you’ll have the chance to hear some of central Iowa’s rising classical guitar students learning in real time as they work directly with Rupert. It’s a unique window into the next generation of musicians.
