Full Biography

Henry Robinson's passionate, poetic performances have been praised for their musical integrity and depth of atmosphere. Henry's sensitive interpretations of his wide ranging repertoire have been warmly acknowledged by distinguished musicians and audiences in various settings from international concert stages, guitar and music societies and festivals, to weddings and corporate functions.

Having taken up the guitar at the age of eight, Henry went on to study music specialising in Classical guitar performance at the Norwegian Academy of Music, Oslo, studying with Sven Lundestad, and with John Mills and Christopher Stell at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Cardiff where he graduated with a Bachelor of Music with a distinction in performance, a prize for highest academic marks, the John Mills Prize for the most outstanding guitar performance in competition and a Masters degree focussing on Contemporary chamber music with guitar. He went on to have lessons with Graham Devine and Mark Ashford and win scholarships to attend both the West Dean and Bath International Guitar Festivals, taking numerous masterclasses with guitarists including David Russell and John Williams.

Henry has gone on to give concerts at music festivals and for music societies throughout the UK and Europe. Following a performance at the William Walton Festival in Oldham attended by Lady Walton, Henry was invited to perform at her estate on Ischia, Italy the following year. He has also played for the Singaporean Prime Minister, and at the Bolivar Hall International Guitar Festival in London and at international festivals in Germany, France and Slovenia.

Hurrah for Henry Robinson!

5 stars - Henry Robinson are Highly Recommended
booked Henry Robinson for their Wedding in Ceredigion May 2024

“There are not enough stars with which to rate this chap! Henry is such a personable, gentle, lovely and talented fellow. Everyone adored him and the mood he created with his gorgeous guitar playing and his good-spirited banter. Henry and I arranged beforehand that he would play something special for me during my walk down the aisle, and our plan went flawlessly, my groom was in tears at the song (however unusual it may have been)! I am so appreciative and recommend him highly, he worked magic at our wedding. ”
