"A ravishingly beautiful addition. Nicholas Schuller's playing has a depth
and poetry that resonates long after the music ends. This is playing full of
subtlety and color - a hauntingly beautiful disc." - Kurt Erickson, Composer
Guitarist Nicholas Schuller is a graduate of the prestigious San Francisco Conservatory of Music where he studied in the studios of David Tanenbaum and Lawrence Ferrara. While in residence at the Conservatory he was also heavily influenced by the teachings of guitarist/composer Dusan Bogdanovic.
Nicholas has performed in master classes for several of the world's top guitarists wherein he received guidance from Pepe Romero, Manuel Barrueco, Scott Tennant, Mark Teicholz, and others.
Nicholas has distinguished himself by winning first prize at the 1993 Juan Serrano Guitar Competition, wherein, he performed for the late guitarist Laurindo Almeida from Brazil. Two years later, he became a recipient of the Rose Pollack scholarship for performers of stringed instruments.
Nicholas is a versatile musician in both solo and ensemble performance. He maintains an extensive repertoire with a particular interest in early and modern music.
Nicholas plays a cedar top guitar built in 2005 by luthier Paul Jacobson. The instrument is strung with a unique combination of D'Addario, Galli Genius, and Hannabach strings.
