Richard Durrant is a composer and recording artist who defies categorisation. He is one of the leading guitar virtuosos of his generation who, uniquely, performs standing up.
Richard Durrant: the Art of Levitation
A wonderful live music event for both acoustic and classical guitar lovers and the musically curious. Featuring Richard’s original, haunting guitar music including his newly released track “The Art of Levitation”.
Indie-classical composer & concert guitarist Richard Durrant will also play music from the High Baroque, the English Baroque and (in a fascinating homage to John Renbourn & Martin Carthy) the English Folk Baroque.
Durrant’s intriguingly unpretentious style of delivery should not belie the emotional depth of his music; witness the onstage persona of an informative, friendly stand-up and the playing of one of the world’s most inventive, guitar virtuosos.
