where music meets community

In 2022, Nick Cutroneo Guitar Studio launched its Concert Series to complement Glastonbury’s cultural offerings by presenting professional classical music in smaller venues that make the art form inviting and accessible.

Over the years, NCGS’ Concert Series has expanded upon its success. NCGS is proud that the series is brought to small venues.

NCGS is committed to maintaining its Concert Series as a small, intimate program that delivers the depth and resonance of a larger concert hall experience while remaining accessible to all audiences, ensuring meaningful musical experiences.

The Nick Cutroneo Guitar Studio 2026 Concert Series is made possible by the Norma and Natale Sestero Fund at the Greater Hartford Gives Foundation (formerly Hartford Foundation for Public Giving).

Nick Cutroneo Guitar Studio Concert Series Presents:
Volterra Project Trio

Sunday, November 22, 2026 | 4:00 PM

Buckingham Congregational Church

Glastonbury, CT

The Volterra Project Trio reimagines classical guitar trio music, drawing inspiration from European impressionism, Mediterranean folk melodies and cinematic scores.

Antigoni Goni, an internationally celebrated Greek guitarist, is admired for her exquisite sound and distinguished solo and chamber career. Italian-born Luca Isolani, a researcher and performer with a deep focus on folk influences, bridges the worlds of classical, jazz, and contemporary music. Maarten Vandenbemden, a Belgian guitarist, arranger and pedagogue, is lauded for his creative energy and commitment to education and outreach. As a trio, they merge their diverse expertise to breathe fresh life into the repertoire, treating the guitar as a miniature orchestra, exploring its unique sounds, dynamics, and colors.

In 2022, the trio released Medio Siglo, an album dedicated to the renowned luthier José Luis Romanillos, recorded using his last four guitars. The album has been praised by Soundboard Magazine for “the deep use of colors and the dazzling arrangements”.

Their new album, PAROLE IN MUSICA, released in May 2025 is followed by an international tour, touching both Europe and US.
