Richard Gilewitz

Richard Gilewitz has the amazing ability to make one guitar sound like an entire orchestra, fascinating audiences internationally with fingerstyle gymnastics on his 6 and 12 string guitars while spinning unbelievable yarns.

Gilewitz incorporates his own personality and orchestration into a sound tunnel of timeless musical history, offering a musical platter filled with colourful samples from European, contemporary, and Spanish classical works to traditional folk, blues and American primitive eras.

“His quick wit and twisted sense of humor has made him an entertainer as well as a fine guitarist. He interacts with his audience as he puts it, ‘the whole room is in concert.’ Whether it’s a workshop or concert, Richard leaves his audience with a unique experience” Fingerstyle Guitar Magazine.

"He's an accomplished player with incredible dexterity and imagination" Relix Magazine, Brooklyn NY

"These tales were delivered in a deep Alabama drawl that laconically reduced the audience to fits of laughter. We were introduced to his Father, teachers, friends, heroes and pet hermit crabs. And all these tales prepared us for music that had a flavour that tasted of the southern states of the USA" Penguin Club Review
