Thibaut Garcia, guitar

Fri, Dec 13, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Thibaut Garcia (Guitar)
At the age of 30, Thibaut Garcia has already arrived on the Mount Olympus of guitars: the Franco-Spanish musician has won many well-known competitions, performed with famous orchestras and solo in the most beautiful halls worldwide and recorded a highly acclaimed album with the countertenor Philippe Jaroussky (»À sa guitare«). He now presents his latest project at the Elbphilharmonie: a programme all about the Paraguayan composer Agustín Barrios Mangoré, who Garcia describes as the »Chopin of the guitar«. In addition to Mangoré’s own works, transcriptions that the composer produced also ring out – for instance of Beethoven’s famous »Moonlight Sonata«. Agustín Barrios Mangoré (1885-1944) was one of the greatest composers and guitar virtuosos in South America and beyond. »Today, he is one of the most important composers of guitar repertoire,« says Garcia. »His music is a fine artistic blend of South American folk music, inspired by the jungles of Paraguay and the romanticism of Chopin and Schumann – composers he admired.«
