A magnetic performer, prolific recording artist, and a curious and wide-ranging musical explorer, this is a chance to experience one of the most celebrated musicians working today in the intimate setting of the Crucible Playhouse.
Making a triumphant return to Sheffield, Scottish guitarist Sean Shibe presents a virtuosic tour of four centuries of music, including a transcription of Bach’s beloved first cello suite, Steve Reich’s thrilling masterpiece Electric Counterpoint and a recent commission by the UK’s leading contemporary composer Thomas Adès, alongside two of the standout works from his celebrated album Lost & Found.
“WOW! I thought I’d take a dutiful listen and couldn’t get my headphones off. Sean Shibe has made one of the best recordings of Electric Counterpoint ever!” Steve Reich
