Alexandra Whittingham – Guitar Recital 

Recognised by The Guardian as “a young 21st-century virtuoso”, Alexandra Whittingham’s creative spirit is reshaping classical music and defying conventions. At the age of 16 she began to film her performances of popular guitar repertoire as a personal project, rapidly creating a large community of fans worldwide with over 50 million views.  

Having just signed exclusively to Decca Classics, recording continues to play an important part in Alexandra’s career. Her debut album ‘My European Journey’, released in 2021, was described as “a superb debut” by BBC Music Magazine and lead to her being chosen as one of Classic FM’s ‘Rising Star’ artists in 2022. Alexandra has enjoyed recent performances at the Cayman Islands Arts Festival, Texas’ South by Southwest Festival and Rome Guitar Expo with recitals in Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels and London, a tour across Ireland, and will embark on a 30-date North American tour in early 2025.
