This is a bold clash of ancient and modern played on acoustic and electric guitars. Shibe, one of the finest young guitarists today, begins his program in the 17th and 18th centuries with delicate, intimate miniatures for lute. Two short works by James MacMillan bring us to the modern era before Shibe picks up a Fender Stratocaster for Steve Reich’s Electric Counterpoint, a multilayered tour de force blending jazz, pop, and African styles, Shibe negotiating its rhythms with pinpoint precision. Originally scored for bagpipes, Julia Wolfe’s Lad is a screaming, relentless portrayal of grief. And David Lang’s “Killer” is the album’s ferocious showstopper, a fitting end to this thrilling journey.
Just a few years out of school, classical guitarist Sean Shibe quickly made a major impact with a powerful, fully formed style and novel programming ideas.
Of Scots and Japanese background, Shibe was born in Edinburgh in 1992. He started the guitar as a youth, but nothing initially suggested the accomplishments to come: his instrument, he told the Scotsman, was a "20-quid guitar" his mother saw in a shop window and bought for him. His school happened to be giving guitar lessons at the time, so he signed up. He went on to study at the City of Edinburgh Music School (where he was the only guitar student) and City of Aberdeen Music School, but the moment of ignited passion came when he met with Allan Neave, chief guitar tutor at the Royal Conservatoire Scotland. The teenage Shibe moved to Glasgow to study with Neave, graduating in 2013 (he was the school's youngest undergraduate ever) and also taking classes at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Dance.
By that time, Shibe's career as a performer was well underway. In 2011 he won a Royal Over-Seas League award, and major festival appearances followed at Neuk, Lammermuir, and Brighton. In 2014 Shibe gave his solo debut at London's Wigmore Hall, and he became known for both Romantic concertos (Rodrigo) and those by composers exploring a more modernist idiom (Takemitsu). During this period he continued his studies with Paolo Pegoraro in Graz, Austria. Shibe made his recorded debut in 2015, performing guitar pieces by Peter Maxwell Davies on a Linn album of music devoted to that composer. His solo debut followed two years later with an album of music by 20th-century English composers surrounding a trio of pieces by John Dowland at the center. In 2017 Shibe toured China and developed his softLOUD project, a program of Scottish lute pieces juxtaposed with electric guitar works by Julia Wolfe and David Lang.
