RADFORD – Radford University’s International Guitar Festival marks its 25th year bringing world-class musicians from across Asia, Europe, Latin America and North America to campus.
The festival features four concerts over two days, along with masterclasses, workshops and discussions designed for students, musicians and the public.
A highlight of this year’s festival includes Duo Chinoiserie, Bin Hu and Jing Xia, known for blending guitar with the guzheng, a traditional Chinese instrument, creating a rare and dynamic musical experience. The duo will also host a public discussion on intercultural collaboration in music. Other performers include Hao Yang, James Piorkowski, Christopher Wilke, Radford University students and faculty and a community guitar orchestra (Suzuki students ages 8+).
The event is set for Thursday, April 10 and Friday, April 11, with concerts held both days and additional masterclasses and discussions scheduled throughout, at the Davis Performance Hall in the Covington Center for the Arts at Radford University on East Main St. All events are free and open to the public, with no registration required.
