Westwood, Lee
British guitarist and composer
Folk/Classical/World Music
Born 1982, Lee Westwood is a British guitarist and composer. His pieces draw from Folk, Classical and World music, and have a cinematic, visual quality.
He predominantly writes for solo guitar, but also composes for other instruments, including flute. Lee uses the tuning DADGAD, bringing a fresh sound to his work. In particular, this brings a very unique element to his ensemble works.
Lee often plays with Altus flautist Philippe Barnes, and gigs continuously around the UK and Europe.
