Jonathan Wilson has been playing the guitar since 1976. To say that guitars are his life would be an understatement. His career has included teaching, selling, repairing, designing and building guitars. His ideal instrument was not on the market; he had to create it to make it exist. Along the way, other players expressed interest and commissioned Mr. Wilson to build them. 2 GuitarViols represents his dream ensemble, format, and vehicle for his music. Not too long ago, his dream of having an ensemble with a second GuitarViol player appeared in the person of a local guitar player named Oscar Islas. Oscar commissioned a GuitarViol from Jonathan and began studying Viola da Gamba and Violin music. Jam sessions followed and the possibilities were compelling. The result is the group 2 Guitar Viols that you now hear.
