鈥淧erformers should not be afraid of playing good music鈥� says Sean Shibe 鈥� the visionary, multi-award-winning Scottish guitarist who鈥檚 single-handedly redefining the way the 21st century thinks of his instrument. 鈥淎nd listeners should try not to be scared of listening to it鈥�. No worries on that score, as Shibe pairs the world鈥檚 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-Korsakov鈥檚 very Russian postcard from Spain, and the sorcery, secrets and ear-tingling sensations of a real 麻豆视频AV SSO favourite, Stravinsky鈥檚 鈥楩irebird鈥�.
