Hi I'm George Schumann. I play solo guitar arrangements of popular love songs and songs from the Great American Songbook, perfect music for corporate events, birthday parties, weddings, cocktail and dinner receptions, restaurants, and other special occasions. All instrumental music, soft, quiet and elegant, perfect for guests to enjoy as background music while arriving and being seated pre-ceremony, and while dining or sipping cocktails.
I hired George to play at my firm's corporate cocktail reception at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center museum in Cincinnati. I was looking for a Jazz Guitarist to play for this special client social event and was thrilled to find George! He was very professional, talented and did a great job. His music created the right atmosphere for our event and provided a perfect touch. Thank you, George! I will be sure to contact you if I need a Guitarist for future events!
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thanks so much for hiring me Lourdes. You were an incredibly kind and gracious host! It was such a pleasure meeting you and playing my music for you and your company's employees and guests. I hope to meet you again sometime, and Happy New Year!
He was perfect!
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thank you Deborah, it was such a privilege and honor to play my music at Bill's retirement/birthday party. And, thanks to you, I got to reconnect with an old and dear friend who was one of the guests at the party. It's a small world after all!
George was absolutely amazing! We had a very small wedding with varying ages. He played beautiful music for our wedding, cocktail hour, dinner and then for some dancing. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the night and everyone was so impressed with the song selection he chose. So grateful we found him! Be even learned a song for my husband (Ripple by the Grateful Dead) to dance with his daughter. It was so beautiful! We HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend George! In fact, several of my guests asked for his card to book for upcoming events! Thank you, George, for making our day so incredibly memorable!
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thank you so much Suzy and Matt! It was so fun to play for you and your family! When I got home I told my wife that it was weddings like yours that made me glad I do what I do! Best to you guys always!

Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thanks Mary, I had an absolute blast playing for you guys! The location was so beautiful and you and your guests were incredibly gracious! Best always, George!
George was incredibly professional. He came early to set up his own sound system and played music for my entire event. He is a fabulous musician and all my guests were impressed with him.
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thank you so much Tamara, It was great meeting you guys, and such a pleasure talking music with your musician husband!! Good luck in your new jobs and new home!
George was so easy to work with and extended himself to do exactly what we needed. Lovely music for our service. He showed up early to rehearse with our singers and exceeded every expectation.
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thank you Bill, I sincerely appreciate your kind words, and I felt very blessed to have been permitted the honor of providing the music for the service. God Bless!
I asked a lot of George for my wedding. I asked him to play 3 songs that are not meant for the guitar at all (Jurassic Park theme song, Hedwig’s theme and Hooked on a Feeling). He played them so beautifully, without complaint or push back. He was fantastic. I absolutely recommend George for your events. He will not disappoint!
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thank you Sarah, I am so glad you included me in your super fun Halloween themed wedding, your guests looked awesome in their costumes, the location by the river was beautiful and the blue sky was absolutely gorgeous. I wish you and Joshua the greatest happiness and success!
With Covid our daughters wedding was turned upside down. After having to change the venues we got lucky and found George and his guitar. We texted/emailed back and forth, hashed out the details and I didn't have to worry about a thing. He was professional , prompt and the assortment of music he played , was just beautiful. George if you see this- our daughter thought it was perfect, better than the original wedding plans. Thanks for making her day truly special and unique. Continued success to you!

Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thank you so much Pam, it was such an honor and privilege to provide the music for your daughter's wedding! It was such a beautiful day in the park! Much success and happiness to you and your family 💜🎸
We are so glad we connected with George when looking for a musician for our wedding! We knew we wanted acoustic guitar playing for our intimate ceremony. George was quick to respond to all of our emails, questions, and requests. In addition to being attentive, he was professional and kind. George learned the songs we had in mind and added an extra special touch to our intimate wedding ceremony with his skillful guitar playing. George even played our songs for us when we visited the sushi restaurant where he is featured on Friday evenings. George traveled to both our rehearsal and event and showed up early with a smile on his face. He was friendly with guests and worked well with the venue staff. We could not have asked for a better or more professional musician! We highly recommend George if you are looking for a talented guitarist and kind person to help make your event special and stress-free!
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Kristin thank you so very much! I truly enjoyed playing your songs, your selections were great. Your ceremony was beautiful and the location you chose in Hocking Hills was amazing! I wish you and Paul much blessings and great success! Thanks again, George
I wanted a guitarist for the ceremony/cocktail hour of my wedding in October. George was nothing but professional, fun, and quick to respond. I had requested a couple songs to be played for the ceremony and he learned them for our big day! About a month or so before our big day, he invited my fiance and I to a sushi restaurant where he plays. He played our our songs for us while we sipped on wine and ate sushi. He was amazing!
He played our cocktail and our ceremony and we got so many compliments on his playing skills. He was A HIT at our wedding. I strongly recommend...he was willing to travel 50 miles to play our big day, and I can't thank him enough because I couldn't have imagined having someone else play our wedding ceremony.
If you're in the Columbus area, I recommend George with Romantic Guitar.
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:
Thanks so much for such kind words, and thank you for allowing me the honor and privilege of being part of your wedding celebration! Congratulations!
George performed during the ceremony at my daughter's wedding this past weekend in Columbus. Beautiful stylings of an eclectic mix.. Many of those in attendance commented on his lovely performance. George is wonderful to work with as well! Many thumbs up from this grateful father of the bride!
Response from Romantic Guitar by George Schumann:

A professional and classy musical experience to enhance the ambiance and atmosphere of your occasion. You and your guests will be delighted!
I started playing guitar in 1977 when I was 14, and playing guitar has been a passion of mine ever since. I have a degree in contemporary music (Five Towns College, Long Island, 1984) and I studied with great guitar players from New York to Columbus, Ohio. Now I teach guitar at a music store in Reynoldsburg!
Over the years I've played rock, blues, jazz, reggae, and I still play contemporary Christian music at church. I love playing at wedding ceremonies all over Ohio, and I keep busy performing at restaurants around Central Ohio.
I bring all my own equipment. All I need is access to an electrical outlet.
