ur music selections included classical pieces, the Beatles, Ashoken Farewell, and the Grateful Dead, and he played each perfectly and beautifully. Several of my guests commented on how amazing the music was. Rafael communicated promptly, he was willing to learn new pieces for us, and having him really made our ceremony feel both special and beautiful. I highly recommend Rafael.

learned two pieces we asked him to play that were not already in his repertoire, and he played them with breathtaking beauty. He brought his own amplification equipment, and he sounded great, despite the not-so-great acoustics in the parish hall. He is an incredible musician, talented, kind, and generous. We highly recommend him!
Rafael is a great musician and our guests loved it! Fantastic choice for a classical guitarist.
