Ross began studying the guitar as a boy and quickly embraced the entire range of the repertoire, from Baroque lute dances and the Spanish romantics to contemporary compositions and traditional genres. Now based in Philadelphia and a dynamic soloist and chamber musician, his concert programs often span several centuries and many continents, including both ancient dances and Romantic masterworks alongside works in contemporary, popular and traditional styles.
An award winning performer and a graduate of GA State University and the Cleveland Institute of Music (MM, 2000), Ross has studied with some of the finest teachers in the world; including John Sutherland, John Holmquist, and Angelo Gilardino and has performed in masterclasses for many notable performers, including Paul Galbraith, Sharon Isbin, Christopher Parkening, and Eduardo Fernandez, Roland Dyens, Jason Vieaux and more.
Ross Mann is a classical guitarist, chamber musician and educator whose performances and recordings feature a broad range of music including contemporary compositions, early music and traditional music from the world over. In concert, via recordings, or through his publications and teaching, Ross presents an engaging array of music while offering insights and commentary on their backgrounds and origins.
