It takes only four unresolved chords dancing across the strings of a classical guitar to evoke an entire nation's history and tradition. In the words of the renowned classical guitarist Eliot Fisk, "You hear those four chords, you're not going to think of anything but Spain."
These lingering notes are the star of Fisk's Boston GuitarFest XI, called "¡Viva España!" The festival is currently in full swing until June 19. It features youth workshops, competitions and performances. The theme is what Artistic Director Fisk describes as "the agony and ecstasy of the Spanish experience."
WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Paul Ryan said Thursday he will continue to speak out in defense of conservative principles, despite a warning from Donald Trump that Republican congressional leaders should "be quiet."
GOP leaders "have to get a lot tougher and be quiet. Just please be quiet, don't talk….we have to have our Republicans either stick together or let me just do it by myself. I'll do very well," the presumptive Republican presidential nominee said Wednesday.
