Madagascan guitarist Modeste's beautiful songwriting and intricate guitar playing have earned him a devoted following since coming to London in 1996. Hard to emulate and almost impossible to define, Modeste's inimitable style cuts between the stream of jazz and classical, yet retains the purity of his Madagascan roots. Self-taught on a 24-string African Instrument , Modeste has developed a highly original style and striking approach to playing , forging a unique blend of beauty, mystery and power. He stole the show on Radio 3's World on your Street stage at Womad last year, mesmerising audience with his serene voice and hypnotic melodies.
