Ana Vidovic comes from the small town of Karlovac near Zagreb,
Croatia, and started playing guitar at the age of 5. At age 7, she gave
her first public performance and at the age of 11 she was performing
internationally. She became the youngest student - at age 13 - to
attend the prestigious National Musical Academy in Zagreb where she
studied with Professor Istvan Romer. Ms. Vidovic’s reputation in
Europe led to an invitation to study with Manuel Barrueco at the
Peabody Conservatory, from which she graduated.
Vidovic is an extraordinary talent with formidable gifts, taking her
place amongst the elite musicians of the world today. She is known for
her beautiful tone, precise technique, well-defined phrasing, and
thoughtful artistry and musicianship.
Her international performance career includes frequent recitals,
concerto engagements and festival appearances in most of Europe’s
cultural destinations including Amsterdam, Brussels, Budapest, Copenhagen, London, Oslo,
Paris, Rome, Salzburg, Vienna, Warsaw and Zagreb. Her tours have also taken her to
Australia, Brazil, Israel, Japan, Korea and Mexico. Equally impressive is the fact that she
has recorded 6 CDs. Mel Bay Publications has released Ana Vidovic’s DVD entitled “Guitar
Artistry in Concert,” a journey through the music of Torroba, Piazzolla and Pierre Bensusan,
Sergio Assad, Stanley Myers, Villa-Lobos and Agustin Barrios Mangoré, and “Guitar
Virtuoso,” a performance of works by Bach, Torroba, Paganini and Walton.
