In this month’s CGC Academy Member Spotlight we’re featuring Academy member Chris Wilhite. This video is a live performance from the Student Open Mic Concert at this year’s CGC Summer School. Chris is here performing his own composition “Ensconced in Velvet.” We hope you enjoy! Give Chris your congratulations in the comments below.
It’s a beautiful piece, Chris. What a special moment to share your piece at Summer School.
Chris, this is a beautiful piece. It was great to hear it in person at Summer School, and I’m glad it’s posted here so more people can hear it!
Chris – Most excellent. You inspire me and add so much to CGCA – and to Summer School. I hope to see you again next summer.
Beautiful my friend. You are an inspiration to this community.
Thank you for the music!!!
Please don´t stop making your own music visible, for me it deserves beeing noticed.
Thank you, Chris. Very enjoyable and inspiring to hear a composition by a fellow CGA member.
Congratulations Chris on your composition and your wonderful performance of it at Summer School!
I just listed to your composition, “Ensconced in Velvet.” I am afraid I don’t have the language to describe my response to your music. It was so moving, it touch me in such a beautiful way, and as a very new student to classical guitar it makes me long to be able to play as you do. I hope you continue to write and share your music.
Chris you totally crushed it.
Nice piece!
Extraordinary !!
A little melancholy must inevitably set for us much older folks
when viewing your performance
We are not likely to have the time to achieve the level of
accomplishment that you have already so beautifully
demonstrated – your talent and hard work aside

Chris, I enjoyed it the first time I heard it at the SS. I have listened to it a couple of times again and enjoy it even more. Your feelings for the instrument and the music are apparent in your performance. Can’t wait to see what you have for us at the next SS.
Waooo just a beautiful composition and played beautifully. Congrats
Hi Chris – wonderful performance on the night and great to hear it again! Keep composing!
