Brad Richter’s guitar concert at the Jekyll Island Club Hotel promises to be an exciting, memorable concert experience and a first for audiences in this part of the country. Recognized as one of the leading guitarists and guitar composers of the 21st Century, he has brought new life to the guitar repertoire with a freshness and unaffectedness that transcend preconceived genres.

Throughout North America and Europe, Brad has performed as a soloist, with renowned chamber ensembles and in duos with artists such as Grammy winning cellist, David Finckel of the Emerson String Quartet. His performances and compositions are frequently heard on NPR and PBS stations around the United States, and he has also written and performed the score for the Emmy award winning PBS television series, The Desert Speaks. He as appeared at the Guitar Festival of Great Britain, the London International Guitar Festival, and the Aspen Music Festival among others. He currently teaches at the University of Arizona. The rugged beauty of the American Southwest continues to be a source of inspiration for much of his music.
