Acclaimed for his artistry, warm tone, and captivating programs, Lyle has played at such esteemed venues as Carnegie Hall, Freight & Salvage Stadium, the Tilles Center, the Hanoi Opera House, as well as numerous other concert halls around the globe.

In addition to playing solo recitals and as a concerto soloist with orchestras, Lyle has performed in the prestigious Ile de Ré International Guitar Festival in France, in the Iserlohn Classical Guitar Festival in Germany and in the Polish Guitar Academy in Poznan, Poland to name but a few career highlights.

As a performer, Lyle has become an integral part of the San Francisco music community, both as a soloist and as a chamber musician. Besides classical guitar, Lyle is proficient on double bass, mandolin, bouzouki, banjo, and lute.

He has released a digital solo album entitled, Lyle Sheffler-Classical Guitar.

Due to the several guests who reserved free concert tickets and then neither cancelled their ticket(s) nor attended the concerts, we have had to shift to the following process. To ensure that tickets are actually used, guests are required to...

1. purchase a paid ticket in advance to reserve space(s), and
2. check in in-person at the event with Gabby, Anissa, or designated JCC staff member.
3. After the concert, tickets will be refunded via Eventbrite to those who checked in in-person. Called or emailed check-ins are not accepted.

Those who do not check in in-person, at the event (as indicated above) will forfeit their ticket(s) for that concert. Unused tickets are non-refundable & non-transferable to other concerts.
