guitarist

“the soul of an artist...technical virtuosity

of the highest caliber, and a

heightened sense of musicality”

- Guitar International

“Matt Palmer is one of the most extraordinary young guitarists I have heard in the last few years. His ability on the instrument in quite outstanding and the ease with which he takes on the most challenging works of the guitar repertoire is impressive. I wish him all the success in his career that he clearly deserves.”

- David Russell, Grammy-award winning guitarist

“Classical guitarist Matt Palmer is one of a kind. Combining the soul of an artist, the technical virtuosity of the highest caliber and a heightened sense of musicality, Palmer’s uniqueness is also his greatest strength. While other guitarists posses a comparable level of expression, technicality and musicality, to find them all in one player, and at a young age, is a rare occurrence to say the least.”

- Matthew Warnock, Guitar International

“Matt Palmer is easily at the forefront of his generation of young American guitarists. He has redefined what is technically possible on the instrument, and plays both new and traditional repertoire with musical integrity and complete mastery. His star is surely rising - catch him on the ascent!”

- Douglas James, Professor of Guitar, Appalachian State University

“Funny how the top tier is redefined and becomes less crowded when a guy like this comes along....”

- Roger A. Cope, Classical Voice of North Carolina

“highly expressive and technically virtuosic....even the most difficult passages with the utmost clarity and incredible speed”

- Modern Guitars Magazine

- Steve Kahn, Founder, Charlotte Guitar Society
