Canterbury Festival: Plínio Fernandes
22nd October 2024
Canterbury Festival returns to Westgate Hall for 2 weeks of entertainment!
Tuesday 22 October, Showtime 8pm
Festival Club at Westgate Hall
Tickets £20 (Incl. £1.50 booking fee)
We are delighted to welcome brilliant young guitarist and Classic FM Rising Star, Plínio Fernandes to Canterbury Festival for a concert that fuses the tradition of classical guitar with Brazillian folk music.
Born and raised in São Paulo, Plínio is an exclusive Decca Gold recording artist whose debut album Saudade (2022) hit Number One on the Billboard Traditional Classical Albums Chart. His second album released in 2023, Bacheando, explores Bach’s influence on Brazilian music. No stranger to the stage, Plínio recently embarked on a five-date duo recital tour of the UK with Sheku Kanneh-Mason including a sold-out performance at London’s Wigmore Hall. In addition to regular collaborations with Sheku, Plínio performs frequently with Lang Lang, including at his 2022 Royal Albert Hall concert.
A passionate advocate for music education, Plínio was invited to join London Music Masters as an ambassador, and is involved with performing, teaching and guiding young musicians in schools.
