The Norfolk Guitar Duo - Classical Guitar Duo

An outstanding classical guitar duo from Norwich, bringing together two sisters who have played together since the age of 5. They have extensive performing experience both in the UK and further afield, including recitals in Hungary, Austria, and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. One is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music, and both sisters have studied with Carlos Bonell, as well as having masterclass coaching with numerous world renowned guitarists, including Julian Bream, David Russell, Leo Brouwer, John Mills, Vladimir Mikulka, and Nikita Koshkin.

This duo play everything from Bach and Tarréga to The Beatles, Scott Joplin and the Gipsy Kings, covering classical music, popular song, jazz and latin, enchanting audiences with their virtuosity and great range of expression. In addition to concert performances, they regularly provide music for weddings and other functions, and
by using discreet amplification can entertain small private parties as well as larger events. They have also proven to be very popular for light entertainment at corporate events. Whatever the occasion, they can provide the perfect musical accompaniment.

"A beautiful sound and a sensitive.....evocative performance" Julian Bream

Weddings
This duo can provide the ideal accompaniment for your wedding day, playing during the ceremony, in the background while you have your photographs taken, then while your guests gather for a drink, finally providing the perfect atmosphere for the wedding breakfast. If you have already made plans for other music throughout your ceremony, they are equally happy to play just for your reception.
Once you have decided to book this act for your wedding they are more than happy to help you choose the music. Clients often want something a little different, and you may already have an idea of what you would like. They are happy to arrange a special piece for your event if they don’t already have it in our repertoire.
