Can a collection of instruments possess their own unique individual voices?
In short: Guitarist Anthony Wilson explores the distinct personalities of John Monteleone's 'Four Seasons' guitars, a series of instruments created between 2002 and 2006.
In this MetCollects feature, Wilson discusses how each guitar in Monteleone's ensemble contributes a specific voice to the collection. The video accompanies the performance of Wilson's compositions, including "Jackson," "Alla Chitarra," and "Vida Perdida Acabou."
The 'Four Seasons' guitars, crafted by American composer John Monteleone (b. 1947), were acquired by The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2017 as a gift from the Abraham J. & Phyllis Katz Foundation in memory of Michael Allan Katz.
