As a concert photographer, I spend a lot of time watching musicians work their magic from behind the lens, and guitarists always make for some of my favourite shots. There’s something so satisfying about seeing someone completely own their instrument.

Ready to get swept up in some serious string magic? Enter for a chance to win a pair of tickets to International Guitar Night at Massey Theatre on 1/31 in 2027! Four wildly talented guitarists from around the globe will serve up flamenco, classical, jazz and enough jaw-dropping fingerwork to make your air guitar feel wildly underqualified.*
