Hi! Thanks for stopping by and enjoying my Solo Classical Guitar Music!
Please overlook my negligence in updating/booking using my Gig-Masters interface/page with performances/testimonials. I hope it will not dissuade you from enjoying an Original LIVE John Chapman Solo Guitar Performance. You may read my reviews/testimonials at johnchapmanguitaristdotcom and enjoy listing to 30+ song samples there.
I have performed with top-notch musicians and artists who perform with Blood Sweat and Tears, Branford Marsalis, Buddy Guy, David Bowie, Dave Mann, Harry Belefonte, Joey Calderazzo, Natalie Cole, John Lucien, John Scofield, Leslie West, Mike Stern, George Porter, Sheryl Crow, Spyro Gyra, Sting, Tina Turner, Natalie Cole, Tower of Power and others. These performances were mostly electric guitar and steel string.
Now, over the past three years, I’ve been focusing on performing on a Nylon String Classical Guitar and I really enjoy the solo aspect of performing in more personal and intimate settings and growing my solo guitar repertoire.
**** Please recognize that I perform with creative, fresh and exciting improvisations that bring great live artistic energy in conjunction with each venue/guests in the room that's challenging to duplicate during recording and clients always comment on how I sound really amazing in person.
Wedding Ceremony
Music is one of the key elements of your wedding, you'll replay the melodies from your special day over and over again in your mind for years to come!
I extend myself to learn special song selections for your wedding ceremony or special event celebration and will meet you in person or on a conference call which ever is more convenient so you may hear me perform live prior to your wedding date to help you choose the special ceremony songs for your processionals and recessionals that feel right for you. I also provide portable amplification for outdoor venues at NO EXTRA CHARGE.
I truly enjoy working with clients to create the appropriate musical ambiance that meet their taste and style to support the proper musical mood for a lasting and memorable event.
Please feel free to contact me regarding any details. The more information you provide about your special event event celebration the better.
I look forward to speaking with you!
Have a great day!
Best Regards,
John
