About
Thank you for considering me for your event.
I have been playing and teaching the classical guitar for nearly 30 years. I am originally from South Africa and was founder of the Durban Classical Guitar Society in South Africa and have perfomed extensively in South Africa and the USA.
I can provide mainly classical guitar music from early Renaissance, Baroque, Flamenco, Latin through to modern and contemporary music.
I am also an accomplished tenor and will sing songs for weddings and other events such as ;
Time to say Goodbye, Halleluia (Leonard Cohen), The Prayer, The Wedding Song(There is Love), Amazing Grace, Morning has broken, Ave Maria, Annies Song, Danny Boy. Somewhere over the Rainbow/What a wonderful world, Bridge over troubled water.
Here is some of my repertoire to play for a wedding.
For the wedding processional - Mendelssohn's Wedding March - or Wagner's Bridal March - or Pachelbel's Canon in D.
For the guests as they arrive.
Bach
Jesu Joy of mans desiring. Rondo and Gavotte . Prelude from the 1st Cello suite and Little Prelude. Air on a G string.
Vivaldi
Autumn from Four seasons. Lute suite in D 3 movements.
For meditative pieces during readings or while you sign the register
Two beautifully romantic pieces
Romance or Spanish Folk song or Recuerdos de la Alhambra(Memories of the Alhambra- a very old Moorish castle overlooking Granada in Spain.
Two Pavanes (15th century stately dances ) by Luis Milan.
For music afterwards or social events.
Flamenco (Alegrias, Malaguena , Soleares, Farruca, Rumba, Fandango etc)
Villa- lobos Preludes and Studies (contemporary Brazilian classical guitar)

Albeniz - Asturias and more
Classical Gas, Anji and other Light Jazz.

Wedding
in Greene, ME

"Brian is a proffesional of the utmost caliber, and a gentleman as well. I would recommend him most highly for any event, but his sensitivity to the needs of a wedding seems to be a special talent he posseses. His talents lent an unforgettable element to our wedding, and elevated the event to a much more sophisticated level than it would of otherwise been the case. Thank you sir, for being a part of a day that will be remembered in our two families!"

"As a performer for the Hospitality Dept. at UNH's Gourmet Dinners, Brian was a pleasure to work with. He was professional in all aspects of his work. This was a themed dinner, so he kindly provided music selections that went along with the theme. His two performances were enjoyed by all who attended the dinners. I would definately recommend him for your event."

"Brian met with the wedding couple prior to the wedding to select music. They only had the highest of praise for him. At the wedding, he accommodated our request to play on the beach and by the reception area. He is a very talented musician. Our guests loved his music. We would highly recommend him."

"Brian Cullen was an excellent choice for our wedding. He played during both the ceremony and reception cocktail hour/dinner and our guests were complementing us on our choice of music. His style was a perfect compliment to our vision for our wedding, summer, relaxed yet somewhat traditional, airy, and fun. We had some timing issues with the reception due to the caterer but Brian took it all in stride, playing some amazing music during dinner.
I would recommend Brian Cullen to anyone looking for music at their event. His professionalism and courtesy are only surpassed by his talent."
