Join us for evening of romantic and romantic-inspired music presented by one of today's most exciting young artists. Ms. Sardo will perform repertoire by Fernando Sor, William Walton, J.K. Mertz, and more. Since placing in over 15 international competitions, Chicago-born guitarist Marisa Sardo has emerged as one of today’s most exciting young artists to see perform live. Born in the U.S.A from Italian parents, she holds a dual-citizenship and is an active musician in the Italian and American music scenes. In 2022, she was one of the only classical guitarists to win 1st prize in the New York Laureate International Music Competition. In 2021, she won 1st prize in the Twisted Spruce International Music Competition. In 2019, she won 1st prize in the Grand Prize Virtuoso International Competition and performed in Amsterdam and Salzburg in the winner’s concert tour. She has performed in numerous venues in Europe as a guest soloist, including the Mozarteum University in Salzburg, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, San Simone church, Accademia Chigiana concert hall, and other various venues in Italy. Marisa was also selected to be a guest artist for the 2022 season at the Chicago Guitar Festival, and she was the guest artist for the 2018 season at the Associazione Culturale Alirio Diaz Concerto di Chitarra in Costacciaro, Italy. Marisa will be releasing her first album with Frameworks Records in fall 2022, which will include works by Sor, Mertz, von Sehrwald, and more.
