Thibaut Garcia

Thibaut Garcia, the Franco-Spanish guitarist, was born in 1994 in Toulouse, France where he began learning the guitar at the age of seven. At the age of 16, he was admitted to the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Dansede Paris where he completed his Batchelors degree with honours. In 2015, he was named sponsee of the Académie Charles Cros.

He has won many awards since 2008, including the Valle de Egues in Spain and First Prize at the Ana Amalia competition in Weimar, Germany. Since then, he has won the first prize in several international competitions, in particular the Guitar Foundation of America at Oklahoma City, USA in 2015, the José Tomas at Petrer, Spain in 2014, the International Competition of Seville, Spain in 2013.

Thibaut is now in demand by leading guitar festivals worldwide. In 2016 he toured in the USA and Canada giving over 60 recitals and made his concerto debut with the Orchestre National du Capitole deToulouse. In 2017, Thibaut was appointed BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist, with opportunities to give solo recitals and appear as soloist in concertos in the UK. He will notably make his debut in London’s Wigmore Hall in 2018.

In 2016, he signed exclusively with Warner Classics/Erato for his recording projects, with a first release Leyendas. His second album, Tribute to J.S. Bach, will be released in the autumn of 2018.
