Zaira Meneses is a classical guitarist who was born in Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico. Known as Mexico's "First Lady of the Classical Guitar",[1] Ms. Meneses is an active concert performer and is currently a professor at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, Massachusetts[2] as well as the Walnut Hill School for the Arts in Natick, Massachusetts.

Early career

As a teenager, Meneses co-founded and toured with the Orquesta de Guitarras de Xalapa as its youngest member.[3] When she was 17, Meneses won the top prize at a national guitar competition in Paracho de Verduzco. This led to a tour of performances of Joaquin Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez at venues throughout Mexico. Meneses pursued her studies at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, where she currently serves as a professor.[2]

Recent projects

Meneses has performed in concert halls such as Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, and the 92nd Street Y in New York City, where The New York Times said that her performance had "a fluid and colorful style".[4] Ms. Meneses has also performed at Boston's Jordan Hall,[5] the Wiener Saal in Salzburg, and the Great Hall of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music.

The independent release of Meneses' first album, "Latina", led to a contract with Centaur Records. Released in 2018, "Wunderbach" was Meneses' first Centaur album, featuring renditions of Johann Sebastian Bach music.[6]

Zaira Meneses was a founder of the Boston GuitarFest along with her spouse, and fellow classical guitarist, Eliot Fisk. She has served as the festival's co-director for nearly two decades.[7][6]
