Programme Note

In this unmissable programme of polar opposites, he presents a first half dedicated to classical guitar, featuring JS Bach (BWV 996), before switching to electric guitar for Steve Reich’s hypnotic Electric Counterpoint.

The first guitarist to be selected for the BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists scheme, and to be awarded a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship, Shibe was a prize-winner at the 2015 YCAT International Auditions.  In 2018, he became the first guitarist to receive the Royal Philharmonic Society Award for Young Artists and the following year he won a Gramophone Award in the newly-created ​‘Concept Album’ category for his critically acclaimed recording softLOUD.
