Thibaut Garcia & Isang Enders presented by Music Network
Prepare to be charmed by the quiet charisma and innate musicality of this thrilling new duo comprising Franco-Spanish guitarist Thibaut Garcia and German cellist Isang Enders, both young artists with rapidly-growing international reputations.
Recently dubbed “the new face of classical guitar”, 23-year-old Garcia has already cut a swathe through the world’s foremost guitar competitions — taking firsts in six of them — thanks to his gossamer light touch, wonderfully sensitive interpretations and a repertoire ranging from Piazzolla and Piaf to world premieres of compositions by composers such as Jean-Frédéric Neuburger and Vincent A. Jockin.
At the age of 20, Isang Enders was appointed principal cello of the Dresden Staatskapelle, making him the youngest section leader in Germany. Noted for his clear, penetrating tone and his big-hearted, dynamic performances, Enders has quickly established a name for himself working with such eminent conductors as Myung-Whun Chung, Christoph Eschenbach, Zubin Mehta and Vasily Petrenko.
