The Guitar Whisperer:
Richard Durrant

Richard Durrant

A concert by Richard Durrant is so much more than a classical guitar recital. It's hard to pin down whether he takes his cue from Bream, Rembourn or Jansch - but take all three as a starting point. Durrant's solo repertoire is made up of his own beautifully crafted solo pieces and a range of carefully chosen ancient and modern guitar music from around the world. His performance style is relaxed, friendly and often hilariously funny - his playing is intense, sensitive and shockingly virtuosic.
