Classical Guitarist

Chichester

Public liability insurance of £10 million

I first fell in love with the guitar at age 10, when I began learning and performing in concerts and competitions at the West Sussex Guitar Club, one of the largest Classical Guitar appreciation societies in the UK. Furthering my musical education, I pursued studies at Chichester College and BIMM, where I was honored with the Batchmeres Dodd Award for Creative and Performing Arts. Through this experience, I found my passion for learning music and performing, and have since helped create beautiful atmospheres at events. Now, my repertoire spans three hours of music, with a range of traditional pieces, film soundtracks, and popular tunes to enhance any event. I love learning new pieces, so if there is something not on my guide set list that you love, then please let me know and I can learn it for you! Available for weddings and events, as well as performances at venues such as pubs, restaurants, hotels and care homes. I'm only a message or phone call away - please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions at all. I'd be more than happy to help and provide a complimentary call to discuss further.

Emily was truly wonderful! She arrived 30 minutes early to set up, and knew what we wanted without needing much guidance and matched the music to the vibe throughout the event. All of our guests also commented how lovely her music was.

Emily’s playing was quite delightful and suited our party perfectly, adding much to the atmosphere. She was also very professional, efficient and prompt. I very much hope we might have an opportunity to ask her again.

Lovely lady, played beautifully and took on board everything that was asked of her. Everyone of the 20 guests expressed what a very accomplished musician, if not directly to Emily certainly to me. We would have no hesitation in booking her again or recommending Emily to anyone.
