The study of classical guitar is not for the faint of heart! classical study requires discipline, devotion, commitment, and serious study. .

Classical guitar instruction can build a great base of technique fundamentals for people who go on to study other styles, such as Jazz or Blues.

The traditional school of Tárrega and Segovia will be expanded with my lessons. I cover five-finger techniques, explorations of sonority (think Julian Bream and beyond), and what have often been called special techniques (percussion, harmonics, golpes . . . ). Traditional repertoire as well as original composition and improvisation will be covered.

For classical guitar we will use my favorite standard method book by mel bay, which will allow you to work ahead of lessons and develop ideas and questions.
