About this concert
GRAMMY® nominated Swedish guitar player and songwriter Yngwie Malmsteen brings his neoclassical metal playing style back to the Bilheimer Capitol Theatre! Yngwie’s career has spanned over 40 years with over twenty albums to his name. His first solo album, Rising Force (now considered the bible for neoclassical rock) was released in 1984 and made it to #60 on the Billboard charts. As a young boy, Yngwie originally had no interest in music, but that all changed on September 18th, 1970 when he saw a TV special on the late Jimi Hendrix. The day Jimi Hendrix died, the guitar-playing Yngwie was born. Don’t miss Yngwie Malmsteen’s return to Clearwater only at the Bilheimer Capitol Theatre!

Yngwie was brilliant even though there were a couple of technical issues, which did not spoil the enjoyment. It was great to see the maestro in action. What a brilliant performer and show. Yngwie please come back to the UK soon.

Yngwie J. Malmsteen Biography
Yngwie Malmsteen is one of rock's premiere virtuoso guitarists. Yngwie has dominated the world of solo guitar for two decades. When he was barely 20, Yngwie exploded onto the music scene with his jaw-dropping technique of lightning fast harmonic minor scalar riffing. His 1984 album, "Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force," established seemingly overnight the style now referred to a neo-classical melodic rock. A legend in both style and technique, Yngwie's long career reach new heights when his totally classical work for orchestra and solo electric guitar, "Concerto Suite," was released, proving that his classical credentials were genuine. A respected musician among both his peers and his fans, Yngwie continues to play and compose at a level of mastery that many career musician only dream of.
