A trained classical guitarist and composer from Northern California, Gyan Riley has since expanded his work as a composer and instrumentalist, performing both classical and electric guitar in venues around New York City and across ten Eurpoean countries. This Sundday, Riley will be performing his own compositions, giving the world premieres of several new pieces alongside music from his 2011 Tzadik release Stream of Gratitude. His work has been described in the San Francisco Gate as "...virtuosic and often arrestingly beautiful." He is the son of legendary composer Terry Riley.
