About this concert
âPerformers should not be afraid of playing good musicâ says Sean Shibe â the visionary, multi-award-winning Scottish guitarist whoâs single-handedly redefining the way the 21st century thinks of his instrument. âAnd listeners should try not to be scared of listening to itâ. No worries on that score, as Shibe pairs the worldâs favourite guitar concerto with the first hearing (in this form, anyway) of a flickering, fantastical modern classic by the innovative Spanish composer Francisco Coll. The passion rises like heat-haze; no wonder, then, that guest conductor Delyana Lazarova has framed it with visions of wonder: Rimsky-Korsakovâs very Russian postcard from Spain, and the sorcery, secrets and ear-tingling sensations of a real ±«Óătv SSO favourite, Stravinskyâs âFirebirdâ.
This concert ends at approximately 3:40pm.
