SOLD OUT

Please note: Due to demand, all concerts for the Phillips Music 2024-25 Season are now sold out.

Djibouti-born guitarist Raphaël Feuillâtre makes his Phillips debut with an exciting and varied program expanding upon his debut album for Deutsche Grammophon, Visages Baroques ("Baroque Faces"). As the title suggests, Feuillâtre sheds new light on Baroque-era composers through arrangement and reimagining on the modern guitar. At the Phillips, he will expand this concept to also include composers of the last four centuries resulting in a captivating retrospective by this young musician on the vanguard of contemporary classical guitar. Feuillâtre will play works by J.S. Bach, Franҫois Couperin, Jacques Duphly, Domenico Scarlatti, Miguel Llobet Solés, Isaac Albéniz, Augustín Barrios Mangoré, Astor Piazzolla, and Roland Dyens, many heard here in arrangement by Feuillâtre or his contemporaries.

About Raphaël Feuillâtre, guitar

Raphaël Feuillâtre made his international breakthrough in 2018 as winner of the prestigious Guitar Foundation of America (GFA) International Concert Artist Competition. He had already been tipped as a rising star in Europe following his victory at the 2017 José Tomás Villa de Petrer International Guitar Competition in Valencia and earlier prize-winning competition performances elsewhere in Spain as well as in France, Portugal and the Czech Republic. His progress around the competition circuit introduced him to many outstanding players and teachers; his José Tomás and GFA prizes, meanwhile, included opportunities for him to record solo recital albums under studio conditions and embark on concert tours of Europe, Brazil, Argentina, the US and Canada. His career was given a further boost when he was honoured by being selected as one of French performing rights association ADAMI's "classical discoveries" of 2021.
