We are very happy to announce that Ana's new performance DVD by Mel Bay has been released. Ana takes us on a journey through the beautiful music of Federico Moreno Torroba, Astor
Piazzolla, Pierre Bensusan, Sergio Assad, Stanley Myers, Heitor VillaLobos and Agustin Barrios Mangore. This DVD also includes an interview with Ana and a photo gallery.
Ana Vidovic is an extraordinary talent with formidable gifts taking her place amongst the elite musicians of the world today.
Ana comes from the small town of Karlovac near Zagreb, Croatia and started playing guitar at the age of 5, and by 7 had given her first public performance. At the age of 11 she was performing internationally, and at 13 became the youngest student to attend the prestigious National Musical Academy in Zagreb where she studied with Professor Istvan Romer. Ana’s reputation in Europe led to an invitation to study at the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore, USA, with Manuel Barrueco, from where she graduated in May 2003.
At the age of only 23 Ana has won an impressive number of prizes and international competitions all over the world. These include first prizes in the Albert Augustine International Competition in Bath, England, the Fernando Sor competition in Rome, Italy and the Francisco Tarrega competition in Benicasim, Spain. Other top prizes include the Eurovision Competition for Young Artists, the Mauro Giuliani competition in Italy, the Printemps de la Guitare in Belgium and the Young Concert Artists International Auditions in New York.
Ana has given over one thousand public performances since first taking the stage in 1988. Her international performance career includes recitals in London, Paris, Vienna, Salzburg, Rome, Budapest, Warsaw, Tel Aviv, Oslo, Copenhagen, Toronto, Baltimore, San Francisco, Houston, Austin, Dallas and St. Louis.
Equally impressive is the fact that she has already recorded 5 CDs, and she will be releasing her 6th CD with the Naxos label in 2007. As well, Ana has a new performance DVD filmed by Melbay Productions, to be released in 2006.
In Croatia she has performed with the Zagreb Soloists and the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra and with Symphony Orchestra of the Croatian Radio and Television, as well as having been featured in three television documentaries by the eminent Croatian film director Petar Krelja.
