My Take
Ana Vidović belongs to that rare breed of classical guitarist who was clearly destined for it from childhood. Born in Karlovac, Croatia, in 1980, she was a genuine child prodigy who racked up prizes and international competition wins around the world before most musicians have even found their footing. I have a soft spot for the classical guitar because it is so unforgiving; there is nowhere to hide on six nylon strings. Earning the Milka Trnina Award and studying at Peabody tells me she paired that early gift with real conservatory discipline. Prodigies who keep growing into mature artists are the ones I find most rewarding, and her trajectory reads exactly that way.
Overview
