The Folk Project Troubadour Acoustic Concert Series presents Muriel Anderson with Alex Prezzano
Muriel Anderson is a guitarist and harp-guitarist who embraces music from all over the world with grace, joy and gentle humor. She is the first woman to have won the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship. Her CD “Nightlight Daylight”, was chosen as one of the top 10 CDs of the decade by Guitar Player Magazine. Muriel’s facility across the genres of folk, classical, bluegrass, popular and international music is revered by guitarists worldwide. Among those she has performed or recorded with are Chet Atkins, Les Paul, Victor Wooten and Tommy Emmanuel. Her live performance is enhanced by a projected multi-media display of images and video clips on a screen behind her.
Alex Prezzano is a premier acoustic guitarist, songwriter, and composer. His range is extraordinary, his playing precise, and his arrangements inspiring. His repertoire ranges from the American Songbook classics like “Over the Rainbow” to a sparkling rendition of the Beatles “Ticket to Ride,” a longing version of Cindy Lauper’s “Time After Time,” a flashy piece from the Renaissance like “Canarios,” and a slew of wonderful originals. Alex is based in NYC and has performed in Broadway shows, and at beloved venues throughout NYC and North America. And he’s quite the singer, too. “All we can say is wow!”
