Muriel Anderson multimedia event at The Alliance for the Arts Feb. 20

The Americana Community Music Association and The Alliance for the Arts present Muriel Anderson in concert on Feb. 20 with a multimedia show.
Muriel Anderson is a guitarist/harp-guitarist and composer, embracing music from all over the world with grace, joy and humor.
Muriel 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, and her “Heartstrings” recording accompanied the astronauts on the space shuttle Discovery. Among those she has performed/recorded with are Chet Atkins, Les Paul, Victor Wooten, Tommy Emmanuel and the Nashville Chamber Orchestra. Her obvious joy of music, humor and her facility across the genres of folk, classical, bluegrass, popular and international music is revered by guitarists worldwide. An engaging performer, Muriel’s unique approach to the instrument virtually transforms the guitar into a lyrical choir, then a marching band, then a Bluegrass band, one minute launching into a Beatles’ tune and the next, a Spanish classic.
Muriel’s multimedia show takes you on a journey in music and stories, with a backdrop of visuals artfully projected behind her. It is a musical journey through space and around the world. Truly an experience of all the senses, her show often incorporates aspects of her new project Acoustic Chef with visuals by celebrated photo-artist Bryan Allen. Her new TrueFire channel brings her in-demand teaching to a wider audience.
Ray Cerbone will open for Muriel Anderson.
The Feb. 20 concert starts at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20. Call The Alliance at 239-939-2787. The Alliance for the Arts is located at 10091 McGregor Blvd. in Fort Myers. Or visit online at www.artinlee.orghttp://www.artinlee.org
