By Time Period

Renaissance

A small collection of music from the renaissance period, including pieces by Dowland, Narvaez, and Milan.

Baroque

Includes selected pieces from famous Bach lute and cello suites, as well as selected pieces by Vivaldi, Silvius Leopold Weiss and other key composers of the Baroque era.

Classical

This set includes cornerstone pieces of classical music such as Pachelbel’s Canon (‘Canon in D’) as well as music by various classical guitar composers such as Matteo Carcassi and Fernando Sor.

Romantic

The romantic period was ushered in by Beethoven and typified by Brahms, so it would be a shame not to include some of their music in this set.

Modern 'Classical'

Despite the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras being long gone, they live fresh in the memory of many contemporary composers. Modern day classical guitar composers still write pieces in a reminiscent style, but with plenty of influence from contemporary styles such as folk, jazz and pop/rock.

By Style

'Classical'

The term ‘classical’ tends to get used to casually nowadays describe music written sometime before the 20th century. Whilst there are distinct differences between each musical era, Ed’s ‘classical’ set includes music from the Renaissance, Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods. It also includes some modern day pieces written in a ‘classical’ style.

Spanish

Ed’s Spanish set encompasses a range of authentic Spanish music. This includes pieces from as far back as the Renaissance, traditional Catalan folk songs, the romantic guitar music of composers such as Tarrega and Albeniz, as well as some pieces in a style reminiscent of flamenco.

Jazz

Jazz music works perfectly as ambient music in almost any setting. Ed’s jazz set includes a range of slow to medium ballads as well as famous jazz pieces such as ‘Summertime’, ‘All The Things You Are’ and ‘Fly Me To The Moon’.

Pop/Rock covers (instrumental versions)

Pop and Rock covers arranged for the classical guitar are a great addition to any wedding or event. Being instrumental, the music is none obtrusive but that doesn’t stop the occasional sing along! The Pop/Rock set includes everything from Coldplay and Adele to The Beatles and Eric Clapton. There’s even room for some Aerosmith, Kings of Lyon and Metallica!

Unique Arrangements

 What could be more romantic than a version of ‘your song’ being played on classical guitar as you walk down the aisle?

Ed can take any song from any genre and transform it into a beautiful arrangement perfect for your wedding.  This is a popular choice with couples looking to personalise their wedding ceremony with the songs they love.

Check The Repertoire List

Check the repertoire list to see if your chosen song is already listed.  If it is then you’re all set! Just ask Ed to play it when you fill out your booking form.

Make Your Request

If your song isn’t listed then simply make your request on the booking form.  If you definitely want a song which is not listed in the repertoire list, be sure to mention it when you request a quote.  There is a £25 fee for any song requested which is not already on the repertoire list.
