David Kraus: Booking Information

Performance and Event Booking

Solo & Ensembles

Concerts & Workshops
Weddings & Private Affairs

I am available for concert venues, house concerts, weddings, anniversaries and

business affairs, or any occasion where the rich tone of a classical

guitar can beautifully enhance the setting.

Duos and ensembles can be arranged in an array of colorful sounds. Guitar duo,

voice, flute, chromatic harmonica, native American flutes, vibraphone,
or bass, are all nice choices. I will accomodate your requests.

I supply all of my own equipment including amplification, electrical cords, and

seating. If the distance from the playing area to a grounded power source

is more than 25 feet, I use a fine battery powered "PA" system.

A parking area close to the performing site where equipment can be easily moved

is greatly appreciated and I also ask there be a level surface

and an overhead cover for outdoor events.

My fee for weddings is $350.00 plus mileage @ $.50 per mile. This covers two &

one-half hours with the ceremony and arriving one hour prior for

set-up and consultation. A fifty percent deposit plus mileage

is required. Extra musicians are $250.oo per player.

To hear samples of my guitar playing and music styles go to Chronicles. There

is a wide selection of pieces both acoustic and electric to be heard

including classical, jazz, and pop.

I perform all music on the nylon string guitar (i.e. classical) for all styles of

playing. It is the most versatile instrument in the guitar family and
resonates with a richer and warmer tone than steel strings.

For availability and answers to any questions you may have concerning music

for your event, please write to me through the e-mail form

provided on the Contact page.

"David's playing is absolutely first rate. His solo and group performances at our establishment always draw an overwhelming response. And his lovely ensemble CD "Some Sort of Angel" is the music enjoyed every night in our dining room."

"We cannot thank you enough for playing at our wedding. The music was incredible. I can't imagine what the mood would have been without your music. The piece you played as we walked down the aisle was beautiful and made the moment feel very special. Thank you for being a part of our special day."
