Petra Poláčková – Past Concerts

"A guitarist of extraordinary ability" (The American Federation of Musicians), Petra Poláčková began her guitar studies at the age of six and obtained her Bachelor and Master degrees with Paolo Pegoraro from the Universität für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Graz in Austria.

As a result of her musicianship, consummate virtuosity, and numerous first-prize awards, she has been invited to perform by many festivals around the United States, Europe, and Mexico. In 2020, she released her debut CD, WEISS, with music by the German lutenist Sylvius Leopold Weiss recorded on a 9-string romantic guitar.

Petra teaches in Austria at the Franz Schubert Music School Fürstenfeld, at Johann-Joseph-Fux Konservatorium in Graz, and was recently appointed Honorary Professor at the Royal Academy of Music Aarhus/Aalborg in Denmark.
