For the Herald-Journal Three performers, together claiming more than 100 years experience, will bring their expertise to Wofford College Monday night in the school's final program of the Troubadour Series. The classical guitar performance will be at 7 p.m. in the Papadopoulos Room. Parham, originally a self-taught musician, is a founding member of the group. He studied with Jerry Young and later with Stevenson in Asheville. An electrician by trade, guitar is one of his loves.
Audience members tend to be surprised by the sound and dynamics created by the trio.
Stevenson is looking forward to playing in Spartanburg for the first time. Performing with a trio, he said, is like having a giant guitar. Stevenson is an honors graduate of the University of South Carolina School of Music and holds a master's degree in classical guitar performance. He directs classical guitar studies at Mars Hill College and Clemson University. Stevenson is also responsible for inventing the A-frame adjustable guitar support that is used by guitarists worldwide.
