Acoustic guitarist Martijn provides live music with a wide repertoire of classical, romantic, Spanish and South American music, interspersed with poppy/jazzy music. Ideal as background music at a reception, dinner, birthday, toast; a stylish and special musical setting!
classical - acoustic - guitarist - romantic - popular - wedding - ceremony - reception - drinks - dinner - birthday - Spanish - South American - pop - party
The subtle presence of the guitar music and the warm sounds of the guitar create a stylish and relaxing atmosphere!
CUSTOMER'S WORK
Every occasion is unique and therefore I provide tailor-made solutions focused on your needs; for this we have extensive personal contact before a performance.
MINI-CONCERT
In addition to the background music I like to play a few pieces as a 'mini-concert', where I can tell something about the content of the music. Your guests will then have the opportunity to really listen for a while, which contributes to the overall experience!
CAN BE USED ANYWHERE
I can play acoustic as well as (light) amplified, I don't need a lot of space and I can be used anywhere. So even on locations without power,
such as in a park, in the woods or on the beach, anything is possible!
PROFESSIONAL
I have been a professional guitarist for over 15 years and have extensive experience in performing at weddings, dinners, receptions, birthdays etc. I graduated from the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and am, among other things, the regular guitarist in the ensemble of the famous star soprano Mirusia, with whom I tour at home and abroad!
Send me a message and let me know exactly what you are looking for; I look forward to playing on your special day / event!

We were so happy to have Martijn join us for our very first event in Amsterdam! His music was the first thing attendees heard upon arrival and really added to the vibe of the event and set us up for a great day. He played a variety of pieces on guitar, some of which were popular and some lesser known, which worked really well, and was timely, polite, helpful, and responsive on the day and in the lead up to the event. Thanks so much Martijn!
, Pieter Smit
I can recommend Martijn to everyone. We had a large Frivolent party at our castle, where we wanted to create a cozy atmosphere that would still have some of the chic atmosphere of the castle. We had hired Martijn for the whole evening to play guitar in the background. Not too present so everyone could also chat with each other, but still very much contributing to the 'fancy' atmosphere of the castle and the party. Martijn, thank you so much, for a perfect evening!

Dear Martijn, We would like to thank and compliment you for your fine musical support during our golden wedding celebration aboard the Thalassa. You did a great job. It must have been quite difficult for you to let your acoustic guitar music be heard sufficiently with 95 busy chatting guests. Thanks for understanding that and especially that it worked out well. Also nice that you wanted to support grandson Oliver during his first "performance" after four months of guitar lessons. He found it very exciting, but it went fine. We enjoyed your fine guitar music. Kind regards, Paula and Peter

Wij wilden graag dat de gasten met elkaar konden communiceren zonder dat de muziek overheerste. Dit heeft Martijn perfect uitgevoerd, ook de gasten waren lovend over zijn optreden. Kortom, voor herhaling vatbaar!!!
, Olivier
Thanks Martijn for a fine performance!
, Claudia
Martijn played very beautifully at my wedding! It gives extra atmosphere to such a festive day! I am very happy that I have chosen for this! Live music! Furthermore good communication, friendly and does what you want.... which songs when, which songs etc

He neatly kept his appointments. He did a good job. We had good communication. He was right on time. It was worth my money. I would recommend it to anyone.
, Ava

Martijn does what he promises. He creates a nice atmosphere with his music, feels the space very well and is also very pleasant to deal with and communicate with.
, Daniel
Martijn was able to be present at my father's funeral on very short notice. When I called him, I immediately felt that he sensed the situation. During the ceremony he took care of the moments of rest between the speakers on his acoustic guitar and after that he played some atmospheric and frivolous pieces during the French meal. Perfectly on time and a very engaging and kind personality.

Great. Nicely improvised. Had seen him on Utube, so let him go. Well and nicely communicated about the ceremony numbers and so you see that he does not vh first Thanks Martijn for all the chicken skins ;)

Martijn is easy to handle and flexible and feels good about the atmosphere

Martijn's performance gave an extra dimension to our party. At first his guitar playing was very atmospheric as background music and a bit later very cosy when we sang along with the golden oldies. Martijn feels the atmosphere very well. A special experience, highly recommended.

Martijn played on Saturday afternoon during our 50th wedding anniversary. We have been very happy with him and his music, neat man and he played nice quiet background music during our party! All our guests were also very enthusiastic about him. Martijn again thank you very much for your contribution to our cozy, atmospheric afternoon . Greetings from us Jacques and Ingrid

Super professional, stoneware and very sympathetic! Nice that he also studies a number on request.
, Tom
Giedre and Martijn have exceeded all our expectations with their music. They musically accompanied our wedding ceremony and subsequent reception and it was more beautiful than from a movie. Their professionalism and feeling for music made all those present at our wedding an unforgettable memory. We put in request numbers for the ceremony and left them free to fill in the reception. All the pieces of the puzzle fell together and we enjoyed it. Highly recommended! Once again, thank you very much. Thanks to you our wedding has become even more special than we had dared to dream. Yours sincerely, Tom & Tessa

Martijn has exceeded our expectations, he is incredibly musical and sensitive to the atmosphere during dinner. Hji plays with his feelings and that's because of his enormous talent incredibly well. The evening was extra good because of this!

Martijn took care of the musical entertainment for us in a professional way during lunch at the customer's afternoon. His pleasant music fitted well with the atmosphere and with his charming appearance he also makes an appropriate impression. The contact beforehand was very pleasant, Martijn was also last minute quick in responding and thought along well about the interpretation and details. We would certainly use his services again.

Martijn is a very professional artist, who knows how to translate the atmosphere at your reception into his music. So he is very flexible and also a very amiable person. In short, a topper at your party.
, User
We really enjoyed the professional musical accompaniment of our wedding. Martijn knows very well how he could make the music into something festive for us. He has a very charming charisma. We were very happy
, User
Martijn came to play during the reception of our wedding in Amsterdam. When the guests arrived Martijn was already ready to welcome everyone in a beautiful atmosphere of his guitar music. Our guests indicated that they were all very impressed, that's how the Spanish speaking guests described the performance as "maravilloso! It was unforgettable, and also the general cooperation with Martijn was very pleasant. We couldn't be there ourselves to receive Martijn, but he arranged everything himself with the location of the reception and was ready when the guests arrived. Also the other communication with Martijn was very nice, he likes to think along and responds immediately to questions. We would love to do it again, and then Martijn is definitely back. Thanks again.
, User
Really great... Martijn had contacted me by email to test my expectations and he did exactly that during my 50th birthday. Exactly as I wanted... in tune with the corridors and nice listening music. By the way, the website works really super easy. Highly recommended if you want to book a musician.Hans
