The Intimate Guitar

SATURDAYS @ 6PM AND SUNDAYS @ 9AM

The Intimate Guitar is Jim McCutcheon's weekly celebration of "the instrument held closest to the heart." Jim presents selections from a vast library of music and artists from around the world for the guitar in both solo and chamber settings. At the end of each program, Jim offers a bit of "dessert" - artistic, non-classical performances including jazz, fingerstyle and other fretted instruments.
