Radford Universityâs 20th International Guitar Festival is back on the entertainment schedule, but online.
The annual event, canceled last year due to COVID-19, can be found at radford.edu/guitarfest. It again features its typically high octane lineup, with Jorge Caballero â a superstar on the instrument â atop the bill.
Guitar duo Khytar 12.6., Mesut Ozgen with violinist Cihat Askin, Thomas Viloteau, and Las Flamencas (featuring a vocalist and a flamenco dancer) round out the bill. You may watch right now, for free, as usual.
Peruvian guitarist Cabellero is both the youngest musician and the only guitarist to win the Naumburg International Competition Award, which is comparable to a Pulitzer Prize for musicians, according to the festival website. That prize is among many, with critical praise coming from all corners.

A decade ago on Wednesday morning, Virginians near Interstate 81 in Washington County were waking to frightening scenes that seemed otherworldly for our region, and to knowledge that people had lost their lives to swirling winds at Glade Spring.
On another day, it might have made national headlines, but amid the 2011 Super Outbreak of April 25-28, it was just a footnote in the largest recent chapter of American tornado history.
The 2011 Super Outbreak spawned 360 tornadoes, killing 324 people over four days from Texas to New York and the Gulf Coast to southern Canada, with more than 200 tornadoes and deaths on April 27 alone. Alabama was hardest hit, with 238 deaths as tornadoes gouged parallel tracks across that state like giant claw marks. Harrowing live images of a large tornado chewing up Tuscaloosa are a lasting memory from that day for many.
