About
The Guitar of Michael M
I play nylon-string (classical-style) guitar for a clean and engaging sound in Jazz, Brazilian, Latin, and Pop styles.

Ponticello Duo
My main project is Ponticello Duo with cellist Laura Boytz.
The two instruments naturally complement each other. I love accompanying Laura, but it also sounds excellent when Laura plays amazing "rhythm guitar" on the cello when I take my turn playing a melody or a solo.
​
We have a deep repertoire of American Songbook standards, beautiful Bossas and Boleros, and fun pop and R&B songs.
​
We can expand the duo with bass and/or percussion.
SFO Frequent Flyers
This trio started playing at a restaurant near the airport. Frequently.. A jazz approach for sure, but we also do Brazilian, Pop, and R&B. We like to have fun, but at a volume level that doesn't spoil your fun.
