Concert Accolades
"Classical Guitarist Amy Hite has a knack for bringing to life the composer's original intention, with a calm, sure command of the instrument's technical demands. Amy showed in her solo recital that she is capable of conveying the various emotions in the music she chose, which is, after all, what it's all about."
- Daniel Roest, President/Artistic Director, Sacramento Guitar Society
"Amy Hite’s performance was exciting and fresh. The highlight of her performance was Bellefleur by Pieter van der Staak. Her technique and phrasing in the piece were well considered allowing the music to breath. Amy has a pleasing stage presence and I look forward to hearing more from her in the future."
- Michael Nigro, Long Beach Classical Guitar Society

- Sarah R., Recruitment and Admissions Officer, UC Irvine
"Amy Hite's artistry provided the atmosphere we had always envisioned for our wedding day. The ceremony took part in an unusual location - an airplane hangar - so in addition to the beautiful music, we were impressed by Ms. Hite's complete poise and professionalism in handling the unconventional setting."
- Lauren & Carl Schmid
"From our first encounter with Amy through to our wedding day, she was a pleasure to work with. Our wedding took place on a gondola in the Long Beach marina....not exactly your traditional setting, but Amy was very accommodating. We heard comments all night about how beautiful the music was. Thanks Amy!"
