Join for an evening of guitar with Sean Shibe, renowned for the originality of his programmes and fresh approaches to classical and contemporary music for guitar.

Returning to Lakeside, for his first solo night, in this concert Sean Shibe performs music spanning 400 years from Scottish lute pieces to Thomas Adès’ Forgotten Dances which Shibe premiered in autumn 2023. Born in Edinburgh in 1992, Shibe is a former BBC New Generation Artist, a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship 2012 winner, a Royal Philharmonic Society 2018 Young Artist Award winner, a multi-GRAMMY nominee, and the recipient of the 2022 Leonard Bernstein Award.

Have a listen to Sean Shibe

What’s really striking is the way in which Shibe sustains a world of intensity and introspection through playing that buzzes with vitality. The attention to detail in his playing is breathtaking; nothing interrupts the flow of the music, and nothing is done purely for effect.”
