AURBURN, CA (MPG) - As part of Auburn State Theatre’s 2025 Acoustic Guitar Series, Muriel Anderson brings her virtuosity of the 20-string harp-guitar along with uplifting songs, melodies and gentle humor that leave her audience smiling. Muriel is celebrating the release of SAILING DREAMS, her innovative CD, and board game, inspired by a sailing trip from Long Island, New York to Penobscot Bay, Maine. This multimedia show brings you on a seafaring tour of music and

images with a backdrop of stunning visuals by photo-artist Bryan Allen.

One of the world’s foremost fingerstyle guitarists and harp-guitarists, Muriel Anderson is the

first woman to have won the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship. Her CD “Nightlight

Daylight” was chosen as one of the top 10 CDs of the decade by Guitar Player Magazine and her

“Heartstrings” recording accompanied the astronauts on the Space Shuttle Discovery.

Guitar World Magazine lists Muriel Anderson as one of the top 50 guitarists of all time and she

has recently been listed among the top ten female guitarists. Among those she has

performed/recorded with over the past 3 decades are Chet Atkins, Les Paul, and Tommy

Emmanuel.

This concert is made possible by our sponsors, Mary Ann Flemmer Arts & Environment Fund at Placer Community Foundation and Dean Prigmore & Patrice Taylor.

“Just one hell of a great player …a great personality and what I like is the touch that Muriel has

on the guitar, the way she plays it like we all wish to play, " said Les Paul.
