Luis B.
June 6, 2023Karla is a very talented classic guitar player
I have the opportunity to see Karla Garcia while she was performing as a solist with the Ontario Pops Orchestra at the Mirvish Theater in North York. Her performance was clean. She combined her great talent and her versatile style to perform in front of over 1000 people a beautiful and yet very complex repertory that included compositions from various countries including Argentina, Brasil, Colombia, Paraguay. She is extremely reliable, she confident, extraordinary artist and an amazing human being. Karla is a highly skilled professional. Since I met her I have invited Karla twice to perform in my private events and I’d like to recommend her without any hesitation to perform in front of both: small and a large number of people; either classic or popular.
Hired as: Bossa Nova Band, Classical Ensemble, Classical Guitarist, Guitarist, Jazz Guitarist, Singer/Songwriter, World Music
