Philosophy

The emphasis throughout the guitar curriculum is immersion in a wide range of musical repertoire, independent skills, sequential development of skills, and seeing the guitar as part of a great historical tradition. The guitar faculty believes that an exposure to the many possibilities of musical expression available on the guitar and an understanding of music theory applied to the guitar will help to broaden the student's perspective and make future musical experiences more rewarding.
