I just heard her in concert three days ago; there are not enough words to describe the wonder of it! She is beautiful in person as well as personality and of course in her music. Her speech and thoughts are so kind toward her audience and toward her work. I only learned about her within the past year but will now follow her onward. What a gift to us all!
Crème de la crème! We have come so far since the days of Segovia to the point where we now have outstanding women performers in a world that had been dominated by men since pretty much when the master himself introduced this style of instrument to the world masses. And here we have Ana, a child prodigy of the classical guitar, now a women leading a young generation of not just women but young classical guitarist. She has excellent technique and gives beautiful interpretations. Best of all, she comes across so humble and articulate, a great ambassador for the classical guitar. Segovia would be proud! My daughter is such a huge fan. Wonderful to see her in this interview. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Great comment. When I was younger I sought the best teachers I could find. One of my teachers had studied under Segovia, the other teacher studied under John Williams. It's a delight to find someone (Ana) who in my teacher runs rings around both those teachers.
I have heard the pieces she plays, played by other guitarists. No one plays them better than she. Also the guitar she plays is the best sounding I've ever heard. Listen with good speakers or quality headphones.
Most amazing answers I have heard to some fundamental questions. Her answers would apply to any instrument. It took me many years to guess some of these answers. She talks very professionaly and from her heart. I know she teaches at the college level.
I had the opportunity to watch Ana Vidovic here in Brazil twice in 2012 and 2013, for me it was 2 unforgettable and wonderful days, I hope she comes back here in Brazil and God willing I will be there in the 1st row to watch her, she is simply wonderful, charismatic, I love her interpretation and virtuosity!
Wonderfully humble. It's hard work, you do it patiently, you get nervous before going on stage, you focus on the music with which you really connect. I heard no vanity or pride, just gratitude for the opportunities your gifts give you, a determination to use them as well as you can and a deep desire to help others do the same. I am very impressed.
Hi Ana. I think you are an awesome young lady and a great guitar player. I am your fan. I listened to a concert in San Francisco with the Omni Foundation, and I enjoyed the one hour classical concert a lot. I called the Omni Foundation a few days ago and spoke to Richard, who was very nice; and he sends you greetings. I started to like the sound of the guitar so much after listening to you. Take Care. 😊
I really enjoy hearing her answer these questions and provide her thoughts and insights. She is such a phenomenal talent I am glad to see she is very happy to share her thoughts with her fans and students of classical guitar.
Very recently, I saw her performance on youtube, and I am just mind blown! I have been tweaking knobs and programming MIDI for 12 years, and I have been associated with music for over two decades, so I know that it is not just the amount of time she has invested in the craft, but the dedication and hard work clearly shows in her work. It is beyond comparision.... And not to forget the naturally gifted people like herself.... Bravo, the world is such a better place because of such individuals. Much love to them!
is pretty amazing how she play and interpret the score, respecting every single silence and decrescendo, magnific and congrats Ana you're so great guitar player and also please allow me to say you beautiful woman. Greetings
Great answer to the sixth question--about standard repertoire. That was my original attraction. When I was 17 my father gave me three old cassette tapes he had made. One was the etudes of Sor and Carcassi. The second was a Julian Bream recording of the Music of Spain. The third, and luckily, was a tape of Liona Boyd playing much of the aforementioned pieces as well as a Greensleeves arrangement of hers. I was hooked and my father bought me a $150 classical guitar. 95% of what I play today (36 years later) is from the early early 20th century back to the early Renaissance and on a much better guitar of course. But I guess the point is to play where your heart is. Where your love is. And that is what will bring forth what the composer intended and hopefully will transmit that feeling to your audience. Otherwise it can only be experimental. Thank you Ana for your tutoring.
I agree, remember, she is playing for herself too. Imagine polishing your skills for 30 years to be able to play (for yourself and enjoy) some of those demanding classics and your management tells you: i ve booked you a gig with the Rolling Stones!....nice but🥴 what, how, when, why ...heeelp.
A lot of hidden background work... for these few minutes of playing... But you have an inherited gift that only few have: the ability to translate a masterwork from the sheet music into others ears, so that the essence of the composition can be clearly percieved and understood. Thanks for using it for us.
What i liked about this was the direct answers. She wasn't waxing any lyrical nonsense. She was always very technically adept but as she gets a bit older and wiser, she is becoming musically much deeper involved. Everything she states here is spot on.
I couldn't imagine that it was possible to be as smart as Ana because she is, on my opinion, one of greatest musician of the World but so humble and generous by giving a lot of advices to everybody. No doubt that J.-S. Bach would have appreciate and would certainly have composed thousands of masterpieces to Ana !! Vive Dieu le seul qui pourrait nous faire remonter le Temps. Bises Jeff
Merci pour tous ces conseils : les étapes pour apprendre une nouvelle pièce... l'anxiété avant une performance, jouer pour le plaisir des gens, présenter des pièces qui nous conviennent et qui sont prêtes.
Tive a oportunidade de assistir Ana Vidovic aqui no Brasil por duas vezes em 2012 e 2013, pra min foram 2 dias inesqueciveis e maravilhosos, espero que ela volte aqui no Brasil e se Deus quiser estarei lá na 1º fila para assisti-lá, ela é simplesmente maravilhosa, carismática, adoro sua interpretação e virtuosismo!
Hello Ana my name is Edward from Los Angeles. I just want to say, I also play Classical Guitar for about 41 yrs. In 1986 I met the Great Master Andres Segovia thru a good friend of mine C. Parkenning it was the highlight of my Life! and I would Just like to tell you, if Segovia was alive , I would definitely make sure he knows who you are . Edward Los Angeles
i would have love to ask this QUESTION to her: DO YOU ADVICE guitarists to play multiple style That are likely compatible (for example classic + Flamenco) or to stick in one type of guitare
it would be great to hear you play the blues Ana, even one vid an hour long. And do you write yourself? and many thanks for the amazing content you have shared. I listen every night.
Many of the comments are about the intelligence she's presenting. Do you see the bubble that she has developed, incredible, just gorgeous, huge, stunning, from her eyes to her hair line, that, that, is the intelligence, that your seeing and from her connection to the instrument. Music makes you smarter , smarter because it rearranges your perceptionairey animal mind and you begin thinking in the language of the existing energy transfer in the. universe. She has completed this by learning sonic,,, energy transfer. This one,,, is a powerful female, who, has learned well. She has my respect and admiration, so far.
Hello Ana! Are all your scores written in the G clef only? What about to read some music for guitar in the F clef and in the C clef... well, what I am doing so far is to rewrite some guitar scores in F clef and C clef.... I'd like one day to show them to you, would be a pleasure to give you some of my scores. The music I am writing It is too easy, then for you would be as taking away a candy from a baby...What I am doing it is to play to match and connect the middle C sound with the real middle C note. In other words, for me to play the middle C in the guitar is the one that is in the 2nd string and 1st fret... and the middle C in the G clef is the one appear on the low 1rs ledger line... therefore, I decided to use the C clef instead the G clef. You are my favorite classical guitarist, I admire your awesome talent... how do you do to memorize all those notes and so many long difficult and fast melodies and musical pieces? Wow! You are incredibly talented! Greetings from Tijuana!
Cara Ana, occorrono diciture scritte in italiano e in ogni lingua che ti consulta. Dear Ana, written translated captions are needed in the language of the local country one lives, f. i. italian. Thank you.
Please help me, someone! I obsess with music, and when I hear a piece it’s impossible for me to rest until I find it and learn it. So, what is the name of the wonderful, Baroque sounding piece which we here before Anna goes into the first question? We only hear a few bars of it, and I’m fairly certain it starts in D. That piece sounds so beautiful and promising, I have to know.
Hey Stephen. It's Domenico Scarlatti Sonata K.333. You can find the performance here: ua-cam.com/video/DkFOeIpS4d4/v-deo.html And the lesson to it on www.tonebase.co ;) Happy practicing! Igor
I think it is good when you do some crossover pieces. It makes people want to know more about the musicians. This leads to them to classical music. Your cover of Tears in Heaven sounded better than Clapton's. Your agent did not return my call btw after the Feb concert in 2023. You suggested I call her. You are the best representative for classical music guitar today, Imo. ❤😎
I know why Bach is weeping in the fugue appassionata n°rt4562 XXL or something like that : GOD has told him that a little girl will become a fantastic musician playing on a small guitarounette. BUT GOD also said in french to him that Moïse wouldn't have followers anymore : "Tout Bach que tu es, tu ne pourras pas refaire avec le Temps ce que Moïse a fait subir à la mer Rouge depuis des temps immémoriaux et tu ne pourras jamais entendre cette fameuse Ana, que je réserve pour un autre compositeur génial que je ferai naître en 1963." Merci Jeff
No, it is not an iconic piece. It's boring and I am sick of hearing it everywhere I go. The first part has nothing to do with the second and I have never been able to establish a connection between the two sections. There are hundreds of new and old composers who have written pieces that are enormously more enjoyable than Leyenda, and they actually make sense. Please let's walk away from this piece and start exploring the huge repertoire that exists for the guitar. Thank you.
My favorite classical guitarist.
Fast becoming mine too.

No, but actually is one of the best

Nice to hear Ana talking and giving out some good advice 👍
Thankyou so much Ana! You really change my perception on playing and how to practice classical guitar. Love you and may God bless you always..
Thank you, Ana!
