World known master of the lute and guitar Edin Karamazov will have a recital in the atrium of the Rector's Palace on Saturday, September 17, as part of the International Late Summer Music Festival in Dubrovnik. Concert starts at 9 pm.
The media and the public around the world considere him the greatest master of the lute and the guitar today. His virtuoso performances got him numerous awards – he has won the prestigious Edison (2002), Premio Cubadisco for best foreign musician in Cuba (2009), Premio Goffredo Petrassi for the best instrumentalist in Italy (2011), the Brit Award (2007) and Diapason d'Or, just like several other awards and was nominated for a Grammy award (2001).
