Richard Durrant - The Guitar Whisperer

One of the world’s most inventive, virtuoso guitarists presents a brand new show of jaw dropping beauty.  Experience Richard Durrant’s world of magical realism via the English Folk Baroque, the wilds of South America and JS Bach.

Composer & concert artist Richard attended the Royal College of Music between 1981 to 1986 and is a passionate supporter of music literacy.  He is celebrated in Paraguay for his playing of the music of Agustin Barrios and his lyrical, virtuosic interpretations of Bach’s works (on Guitar, Tenor Guitar & Ukulele) have received critical acclaim.

In the UK Richard has appeared live on BBC Radio 2, 3, 4 and 6 Music.

'Brimful of technically impressive guitar playing on the folk/ classical cusp, with nimble runs, deft arpeggios and quicksilver fingering.' - The Independent

'Durrant never lets his stunning technique overshadow this wonderful, timeless music. - The Sun

'One of the world’s most accomplished players.' - Guitarist Magazine
