About
With over 30 years of experience as a performing solo guitarist, Didier Bouvet creates beautiful music for every occasion. His refined and captivating classical and Latin jazz/Spanish guitar style can be tailored to any event.
His performances are always accompanied with a warm professional demeanor that is always service oriented. His styles include Latin jazz, classical, nouveau flamenco, and Latin rock (i.e. Santana, when appropriate).
He has played for clients, such as Chevron Texaco, Wells Fargo, Hitachi Technologies, Hornblower Yachts, and Excite. A partial list of clients, venues and testimonials are available upon request.
Didier's repertoire for wedding ceremonies includes traditional works by Bach, Beethoven, Pachelbel, Mendelssohn, and Handel, as well as classically arranged works of contemporary songs by Enya, the Buena Vista Social Club, Peter White, Santana, Stanley Myers (Cavatina), and others.
Given enough advanced notice, Didier offers the added service of learning and performing your favorite song to customize your wedding ceremony. You also have the option of extending his services for your cocktail hour and/or dinner reception, where he will play his one-man-band Latin Jazz and nouveau flamenco repertoire (see special events).
Whether it's a sophisticated formal dinner/cocktail affair for 10 or a rollicking outdoor BBQ for 200, Didier tailors the intensity, energy and overall mood of his performances to appropriately fit any festive situation. His portable and battery-charged P.A. system allows him to be set up at any location regardless of whether or not electricity is available. This system is a very smart, all-in-one, high-quality mixer/speaker system that can be charged for up to 5 hours. It can also be used to hook up a microphone for client announcements and speeches.

Didier was prompt and arrived at our event sufficiently early to be set up and playing on time. He had all that he needed for set up. All we had to do was establish from where he would play. The music choices was excellent for our event and Didier is quite an accomplished guitarist. We would not hesitate to hire him again and plan to for future events.

I highly recommend Didier! Didier joined me and my wife for our wedding, and played both the processional / recessional, as well as our cocktail hour . . . and he killed it! Our guests had such incredible things to say about Didier's performance and presence, and we're already thinking of the next event we can invite him to. If you are looking for a solo guitarist, you can't go wrong with Didier.

Didier was one of my favorite vendors during my wedding. He came very early, dressed appropriately, and of course, gave the best performance I've ever heard. I initially thought I was hearing a recording, but when I went in the room, I realized it was Didier playing! I'm very happy I went with him. He streamlined the planning process just made the whole thing stress-free. I wish I could have another major event so I can book Didier again!

Didier performed at our Dia de los Muertos event. He arrived promptly, was very professional and a pleasure to have in our company. His guitar playing is beautiful and everyone enjoyed the music. I will definitely hire him for future events.
