Hello there! I began my musical studies from a young age as my own teacher, ardently buying and studying literature on music. I made my recital debut on the classical guitar at the age of eighteen, and have since performed in concerto, chamber, and recital settings. I hold two degrees, a B.M. in Music Performance and a B.A. in Music Composition, and I am currently completing my Master’s degree in Music Education to further expand my abilities as an instructor. I have studied mainly with Grammy-nominated guitarist Jose Lezcano, but have also frequented masterclasses by world-class musicians such as Rafael Padron, and Scott Borg. I performed as a soloist for the KSC Orchestra directed by Don Baldini, and also for the KSC Guitar Orchestra in Boston, where I also premiered as an emerging artist before the renowned virtuoso Roland Dyens. I gave a performance before the governor of NH, Maggie Hassan, and her executive councilors upon request where she hailed, "Kyle Phaneuf is a talented young musician who exemplifies our strong tradition of talented Granite State musicians and Artists." After graduating, I was drafted into the Boston Guitar Ensemble and made my debut with them as a soloist at the distinguished Jordan Hall. I currently live in San Antonio, TX, where I teach guitar lessons in my private studio and online. Thank you for reading, I look forward to working with you!
