    About Alexander G.

    (1)
    I am a Filipino-American guitarist who recently relocated to Los Angeles to experience and participate in the vibrant art & music scene. I earned a Master’s Degree in Music Pedagogy from Texas Woman’s University under the internationally-recognized guitarist, Carlo Pezzimenti. Playing across the US and Europe with many national touring acts, I have been fortunate enough to experience many different avenues for music-making, as a solo, orchestra pit, big band, rock, and studio musician. Completely fascinated with guitar gear (both old and new, acoustic, electric, classical), constantly researching tone, amps, and the latest pedals and effects. I love to experience and perform music from many different cultures and regions. Therefore, I feel comfortable teaching a wide variety of styles (classical, jazz, rock, metal, bossanova, Filipino kundiman, etc.). I always strive to use my medium to observe, explore, and celebrate different cultures as well as my own. My lessons are personally catered to each student’s interests and abilities. Whether you are a beginner, looking to learn the basics, or a seasoned player, looking to maybe hone your skills, I can help! Contact me today and let’s make some music!
