Testimonials……………for solo guitar

Dear Lawrence,
We want to thank you for the fine performance at Sarah and John's
wedding at the Museum of Man in May 2007. The selections were absolutely beautiful and perfect for the Spanish influence of the architecture of the Museum. The classical pieces for the processional and recessional contributed to the elegance of the ceremony. The guests expressed how much they enjoyed the beauty of your classical guitar performance.
Linda Hall, San Diego CA

 

It was our honor to have Lawrence Spector play his Classical Guitar at our wedding. He worked patiently with us to find just the right song selection for the special occasion. Lawrence genuinely loves to play the guitar and this is reflected by his exceptional talent. He was polite, punctual, and professional during all of our encounters. It was a joy working with him and we are pleased to have this opportunity to recommend him to all couples desiring a peaceful and heartfelt musical performance at their wedding.

Sincerely,
Mr. and Mrs. Daniel and Aimee Harrington, San Diego CA


Testimonial …………………Guitar and Violin

 

We were honored to have at our wedding an amazing classical guitarist, Lawrence Spector and violinist, Beth Folsom.  Their music effortlessly & ever sweetly contributed to the ambiance of love and cheerfulness we wanted to set throughout our wedding Ceremony & Reception.  Lawrence & Beth are absolutely wonderful and a perfect joy to work with.  Their music complimented each other exquisitely yet each clearly can stand on his own!! The extraordinary musical pieces deeply warmed our hearts and the hearts of all our guests!  Their "meditation" piece particularly blew us away.  The sweet feedback of guests & family poured in for weeks.  Absolutely no doubt - their music tenderly escorted our guests to a place where they could feel the authentic peace & joy of our love celebration!  And......for dancing.... simply awesome.  We all could feel they place their whole minds, hearts & souls into their work. Absolutely, hands down a "must have" at any wedding as a duo or each on his own!! Either way you can get 'em!
 
In deepest Gratitude ,
Mr. & Mrs. John Pollock
Encinitas, CA
