Ashu - presented by Gualala Arts Chamber Music Series
Ashu has established an extraordinary ability to
communicate with audiences around the world through
his charismatic and emotive performance style. He
has repeatedly defi ed conventions by winning major
international competitions traditionally won by pianists
and violinists.
While most people have never heard the saxophone in
concert music, Ashu has begun to change this. He says,
"It's really an incredible instrument. It can play with such
emotional intensity, sing like a voice, and eff ortlessly
project in the largest of halls. It's capable of a lot of really beautiful things."
Hailed by fans and audiences around the globe for his
engaging stage presence, critics have raved that he is "as
much fun to watch as to listen to" (Chicago Tribune).
Ashu grew up in Walnut Creek, California, and moved
to Texas with his family at age 12. He graduated from
Northwestern University, a student of the legendary Fred
Hemke, and he currently is based in Chicago.
This performance is honoring donors R.C. and Tina Vasavada
