MARK ASHFORD “a truly remarkable guitarist” Classical Guitar
Mark Ashford is stunning audiences around the world with his unique lyricism and utter conviction to the guitar and it’s music. As Classical Guitar magazine commented;
“Ashford’s playing possesses such clarity and underlying adherence to the sense of structure of the music, as to render the innate difficulties of the guitar a long forgotten trouble that need no longer concern us.”
He has performed at many of the UK’s most prestigious music venues including the Wigmore Hall, South Bank, Fairfield Halls, St George’s-Bristol, Bridgewater Hall-Manchester, Sage-Gateshead and the Queen’s Hall-Edinburgh. Performances have also taken him to France, Spain, Italy, Finland, Holland, Hungary, Poland, U.S.A, Cuba, Barbados and have been broadcast on BBC Radio, BBC World Service and Classic FM.
Mark has recorded six CD’s including a recording of Rodrigo’s ‘Concierto de Aranjuez’ with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Nicholas Cleobury. His latest CD is with the newly formed Vida Guitar Quartet entitled ‘Love, the Magician’ BGS118 www.markashford.com
