As a winner of Artists International, New York Concert Review described his Carnegie Hall debut as “gracefully presented, and expertly played...each note was purposeful and focused, as was each was rest.” With a string of international scholarships and prizes under his belt, including the Australian Music Examination Board’s highest honour, the Fellowship in Music Australia (F.Mus.A), his previous engagements have included performances and master-classes at the Festival Internacional de Guitarra Mérida (Mexico), ICPNA International Guitar Festival (Peru), and the Shell Darwin International Festival (Australia), In 2006, Mr Borg was invited to perform for the internationally televised address of President Hu Jintao, Peoples Republic of China, to the United States of America.
