About this event
Grammy-winning Paraguayan guitarist Berta Rojas makes her San Francisco Performances debut alongside 11-time Grammy winner Paquito D’Rivera, the legendary Cuban-born clarinetist and saxophonist. Their duo brings together the expressive worlds of classical guitar and clarinet, weaving influences from Latin American folk traditions, jazz, and the classical canon. Presented as part of San Francisco Performances’ 2026–27 Guitar Series, the concert highlights Rojas’s celebrated artistry and D’Rivera’s genre-spanning virtuosity. The collaboration has earned acclaim at major venues, including a featured appearance at New York’s 92NY. An SFP promotional video showcases the pair performing Maxixe by Agustín Barrios, reflecting the duo’s affinity for Latin American repertoire. Set in the intimate acoustic of the Herbst Theatre, this recital offers a vibrant encounter between two master musicians who effortlessly cross stylistic borders.
