Bluvenduo is the guitar duo of Zhanxiang Shi (Shanghai) and Sebastian Robles (Edmonton). Formed in San Francisco while studying with acclaimed guitarist Judicaël Perroy, the duo has since performed in San Francisco, Paris, Geneva, and throughout Alberta, Canada.

Known for their expressive artistry and imaginative programming, Bluvenduo performs a diverse repertoire featuring original transcriptions of works by composers such as Rachmaninoff, Schubert, and Haydn, alongside contemporary music. The duo actively collaborates with composers to expand the guitar duo repertoire, including the premiere of Lukáš Janata's XII: Antiphōna in Geneva in 2022. Sebastian Robles' own compositions also feature prominently in their programs.

Bluvenduo proudly performs on Knobloch strings and continues to refine its artistry under the guidance of Judicaël Perroy at the Haute école de musique de Genève, sharing a musical vision that balances two distinctive voices into one unified ensemble.
