Regular readers of this List know how highly I recommend the East River Guitar Series -- and it only gets more attractive as the weather gets nicer (pay no attention to those predictions of rain on Tuesday:  there can't be any rainleft!).  Classical solo guitar music is some of the most appealing stuff there is.  This huge window-fronted warehouse on the LIC riverfront is a marvelous setting for it.  And the warehouse is attached to a mad open-air Serbian riverfront bar and grill that is just pure fun!  This installment of the festival features Rupert Boyd, an extremely good guitarist from Australia, who will play selections by Bach, Sor (whose music I just adore, if you care), and -- I said last week he was the greatest living composer of guitar music, and I'm not gonna walk that back -- Leo Brouwer.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  What part of "mad open-air Serbian riverfront bar and grill that is just pure fun" didn't you catch?  This is your night, right here.  If you need more to eat than hearty grilled sausages, go up the street to John Brown Smokehouse for good barbecue (but hurry:  it closes at 10).
