Événement diffusé en streaming: Sean Shibe, guitar

One of the most original minds on his instrument, guitarist Sean Shibe performs a concert for every guitar music lover – the program’s first half on classical guitar, the second half on electric. A remarkably fluid artist, a Sean Shibe concert might find him playing a transcription of a Bach cello suite or premiering a work by a major contemporary composer or performing live against a pre-recorded tape of himself. He does all three in this program, which includes the New York premiere of Thomas Adès’ lush, sweeping, characterful Forgotten Dances – the composer’s first published work for an instrument other than keyboard – the New York premiere of a new work by the Pulitzer Prize-winning Tyshawn Sorey, and Steve Reich’s Electric Counterpoint for guitar and pre-recorded track, written for and premiered by Pat Metheny.
