Children’s Beginner Guitar Groups

admin — Sun, 03 Oct 2010 13:20:08 +0000

We’ve got an exciting new programme of children’s beginner guitar groups starting at the Gloucester Academy of Music in November. Tuition will be in small groups of 3 -5 students, and it will be based around a staged teaching plan. At each stage students will receive the success of achieving a new level.

The groups will run on Saturday afternoons, with the first groups beginning on Saturday November 6th. New groups will then begin every half term.

The price for 10 lessons is just 75 pounds, making it an affordable way to start your child learning an instrument.

Guitar @ Gloucester Academy of Music

admin — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 18:57:47 +0000

From September I’ll be taking up the role of guitar teacher at Gloucester Academy of Music. The Academy is the latest incarnation of Gloucester’s only junior conservatoire. It has a long history for producing musicians who have gone on to professional performance careers, and it continues to have an outstanding reputation for string and wind teaching. It’s located in the heart of Gloucester, with parking onsite.

Up until now there has been no guitar department at GAM, giving us the opportunity to establish an exciting new department. My aim is to establish an active community of guitar students of all standards – from absolute beginners to advanced players – having one-to-one tuition, playing in groups, taking advantage of regular performance opportunities, and having great fun with their music.

We are now enrolling our first students. Lessons will begin mid-September. If you are interested or you know someone else who might, please either contact me direct:

New Look!

Today I’m launching my new-look website. I want it to be more interactive, and to hear back from all of you. Please email me, twitter or comment on any posts.

This new look comes at a time when there are a few new things happening for me too. In September I will begin studying in Bristol, at the University of the West of England, for an MA in Music Therapy. I am extremely excited about that.

Also from September I will begin work with Gloucester Academy of Music, setting up a brand new, vibrant guitar department. Gloucester needs this centre for guitar, and I have very high hopes for what we can achieve.

Hopefully I can juggle the odd “A 21 Guitar Salute!” around these new projects!

Cheers, Chris
