  • Welcome…

    Welcome to the Blog of Scott Russell, Liverpool-based classical (and contemporary) guitarist, teacher and composer. I decided to set up this Blog in January 2010 to try and communicate better with current and prospective clients. I plan to update the page regularily with news and information about my working life, as well as use it to share interesting and useful things that I come across on the internet. If you are interested in booking me as a performer, teacher or composer, there are links to pages which detail the kinds of functions, lessons and music compositions I may be able to cater for. Thank you for visiting my blog, and please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or feedback you may have, or if you are interested in getting a quote for services.
