The 5th Shenzhen Bay Guitar Festival took place from November 27th to December 1st, 2024, offering five days of musical festivities that brought a series of performances to the city. The event attracted professionals, music lovers, and guests from around the world, all coming together in Shenzhen to experience the infinite charm and innovative energy of guitar music.

The opening concert featured a mind-blowing flamenco performance by Wang Can, the first professional guitarist from China in this genre, alongside flamenco singer Tao Jiarong and dancers La Máquina and Shi Yiqi. The festival also invited internationally renowned guitarist Diego Campagna and China's emerging classical guitar talent Fan Shilong to deliver a stunning classical guitar solo concert.

A particularly striking performance in this concert was "The Bridge of the Birds," a Chinese-inspired guitar piece composed by renowned Italian guitarist and composer Carlo Domeniconi as a tribute to Professor Chen Zhi. The performance brought to life the timeless Chinese folk tale of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, transporting the audience to the banks of the magpie bridge. There, listeners could almost feel the profound longing and love between the two lovers, separated by the vast expanse of the Milky Way.

Since its inception, the Shenzhen Bay Guitar Festival has invited nearly 100 world-renowned musicians and hosted nearly 30 international top-level classical guitar concerts, along with over 70 masterclasses and lectures. Today, it has become an important cultural brand of Shenzhen, showcasing the city's inclusiveness and innovation in the cultural and artistic fields, while attracting global attention to Shenzhen.
