Grisha Goryachev is renowned for his extraordinary musical sensitivity and technical virtuosity in both classical and flamenco styles.
Grisha is one of very few guitarists in the world who is reviving the tradition of solo flamenco guitar in a concert setting that was practiced by legendary flamenco masters such as Ramón Montoya and Sabicas. He creates his own interpretations of these masterpieces, using dynamics and tone colors usually associated with classical guitar. In May 2005 Grisha was awarded the prize for Best Performance of Spanish Music at the VI International Classical Guitar Competition “Julian Arcás” in Almería, Spain.
Grisha began playing guitar at the age of six, studying first with his father Dmitry, an acknowledged master teacher of the instrument. At nine years old, Grisha started his performing career as a child prodigy. His numerous performances in the most prestigious concert halls in the Soviet Union were highly praised.
Grisha received his Bachelor, Master and Doctor of Musical Arts degrees from the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, where he studied under famous guitar virtuoso Eliot Fisk. Since his immigration to the United States in 1995, Grisha has toured extensively in the states and abroad as a performer, instructor, and judge for many prominent festivals and venues.

Purchase Parking Permits
VISITOR PARKING
Parking permit is required for every vehicle parked on campus 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The permit cost is $3.
There are three ways to pay for a parking permit:
- Permits can be purchased online for all parking lots after 5 pm on the day of use. Type “Bellevue College” in the location search and select a parking lot. Lot 14 is the closest to the theatre.
- Parking Meters: Meters are located in lots 12, 16, the Public Safety Office, the 1st floor of the parking garage, and the north side of the gymnasium. I suggest using Lot 12 and 16. Unfortunately, there is no parking meter in Lot 14, which is the closest to the theatre. However, one will be installed next year.
- AMP Park App: You can pay for the permit using the app, but you need to have it installed on your phone.
