Testimonials and Feedback
“Michael has played at our wedding venue and was excellent. His musicianship was faultless,
and he was professional and very friendly to deal with."
Greg Beedle; Gants Mill
"I attended 4 classical guitar concerts of Michael's on the P&O Oceana and found each of
them a moving and wonderful experience. His technical skill ensured each piece was
interpreted perfectly giving me the intended imaginary scene complete with relevant emotion.
In between pieces he was informative, self-effacing and absolutely charming...quite a delight!"
P&O Cruises; Passenger Feedback
"Thank you for the great concerts on the P&O Adonia we really did enjoy them and your
company. Trust you and your guitar arrived home safe and sound!"
P&O Cruises; Passenger Feedback
"Hi Michael No words could come near to say how much I enjoyed your performance last
evening. It was simply heavenly, and for me, could not be matched anywhere else! To be
basking in lovely music so beautifully performed was such a privilege and enriching
experience. I loved the way those gentle tones faded away to a whisper in the Satie, and the
flamboyant drama of the Giuliani. These are just two of the so many sources of great
inspiration for me. You and your new guitar are a perfect match! Looking forward to next
time..."
Gloucester Cathedral; Audience Feedback
"Dear Michael, On behalf of all at WVM, a huge thank you for giving us a great concert this
afternoon. The audience were greatly appreciative, not only of your technical skills but of your
obvious passion for the music and love of the instrument. Your communication with the
audience also added greatly to the understanding and enjoyment of the varied and well
chosen programme!"
Organiser; Wye Valley Concert Society
"I found Michael’s playing very evocative - in the Spanish pieces I was transported back to a
hot summer in the nineties when I stayed in Aranjuez overnight and visited that wonderful
palace, and the to Granada with its Moorish overtones and the hints of flamenco.
Mesmerizing!"
Wye Valley Concert Society; Audience Feedback
