Classical Guitarist / Musicologist / D.M.A.



“His musical sensibility and elegance reflect a delicate soul and rare brilliance. He is, without a doubt, the most gifted and intelligent teacher I have ever met.”

-Paolo Schianchi, Artististic Director, PerCorsi Tra i Borghi – Parma, Italy

“Bryan is one of the rare musicians whose music-making is balanced between the intuitive and the intellectual. His teaching concepts are clear, direct, helpful, and always contribute to the expression and understanding of the music whatever the style may be. Bryan’s playing is characterized by excellent technique, a strong and impressive tone, high energy, and conviction of interpretation. In a word, beautiful.” 

– Professor Robert Guthrie – SMU

“I have greatly enjoyed the playing of Bryan Burns, a young guitarist of taste, refinement, creativity, and a uniquely gorgeous and personal sound. I wish this fine colleague the great success that he so richly deserves.”
