The 性视界传媒 Performing Arts Center is pleased to welcome the VIDA Guitar Quartet -- Mark Ashford, Mark Eden, Helen Sanderson, Christopher Stell -- at 8 p.m. Thursday, April 10, as part of the Allegro Guitar Series in the Doc Rando Recital Hall of the Beam Music Center. Their sense of ensemble and broad range of timbres and dynamics evokes "listening to an entire orchestra and not merely to four guitars ... magic" (Gramophone).
Since forming in 2007, VIDA has performed to critical acclaim in major United Kingdom, U.S., and European venues. They are sought-after festival artists throughout the UK and Europe and in 2011 VIDA made its U.S. debuts in Los Angeles (LMU Guitar Festival) and New York (Baruch Performing Arts Centre). In 2012 the members were artists-in-residence at CSU's Summer Arts program in Monterrey Bay, Calif.
Following VIDA's acclaimed debut CD, "Love, the Magician" (BGS118), the quartet released its latest CD, "Rhapsody" in 2013 featuring works by George Gershwin, Malcolm Arnold, and Adam Gorb.
