One of the world’s foremost fingerstyle guitarists and harp-guitarists, Muriel Anderson’s evident joy of music, humor, and 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 Japanese koto, then a Bluegrass band, one-minute launching into a Beatles’ tune and the next, a Spanish classic.
