Robert Brown, classical guitarist

The sound of the classical guitar can provide the perfect atmosphere of elegance and intimacy for a wedding ceremony, dinner, cocktail party, or any other event. I enjoy working with clients to make sure the music is exactly what they want for their event.

In addition to solo guitar, I also offer some chamber ensembles with guitar. Just as with my solo guitar work, I've also developed for each of these groups a large repertoire of my own arrangements of popular songs, as well as the standard classical music repertoire. Let me know if you'd like to see the repertoire list(s) for any or all of these ensembles:

- violin/guitar duo
- cello/guitar duo
- violin/cello/guitar trio

Wedding Ceremonies are a particular interest of mine. I have been performing music for wedding ceremonies for more than 20 years, and I find it to be among the most rewarding and interesting work I do. Every wedding is as unique as the couple themselves, and I find the entire process of preparation for a wedding to be very satisfying. From working with the couple as they choose the ceremony music to the actual performance of the music on the couple's special day, I really enjoy the whole process. It's always an honor to be able to help to create exactly the ambiance that a couple wants for their wedding.
