Sean Shibe

Matinee

A guitar concert at the Festspielhaus! A rare event in Germany, where the instrument tends to be associated with the campfire or rock music. In Spain, on the other hand, the guitar stands for pride and sorrow: the strict rhythm and its opposite, the act of losing oneself in improvisation. The Spanish national composer Manuel de Falla draws on both rhythmic rigor and improvisatory freedom to pay musical tribute to the French composer Claude Debussy. This masterpiece is just one of the works awaiting to be discovered in this matinee.
