Nicholas Goluses is a professor of classical guitar at the Eastman School of Music at the University of Rochester.[1] Goluses has held the Andrés Segovia Chair at the Manhattan School of Music, as the founder and chair of that school's guitar department.[2] He has recorded seven albums for Naxos including "Bach: Sonatas Transcribed for Guitar" and "Sor: Fantaisies / Progressive Studies."[3] He is one of the only guitarists to have transcribed and recorded all three of Bach's violin sonatas.[4] James Jolly in the Gramophone Classical Music Guide 2010 wrote that Goluses' Guitar Collection: Sor set "a benchmark for present-day guitarists.” [5]
