Every lesson with my teacher is unique and exciting ~ November 2006
I started studying classical guitar with Alfred Alexander when I was four and a half, in April 2000.
In the beginning, I was quiet, hardly saying a word to him and communicating with him by pointing my fingers while sitting safely in my mother's lap (A position unsuitable for a classical guitarist I later found but a sight to see.) Thankfully that lasted for only a year and now you can't stop me from talking. Considering the various musical works that we go through, I currently study with my teacher for 3 hours a week. Alfred is very knowledgeable and thorough, a great guitarist with an understanding of various musical styles and ready to give examples to make things clearer for me. He is also patient and tolerating a lot of my gimmicks, appreciating my style of learning. Sometimes when we play a duet, it becomes a duel for me as I race him to the end, forgetting what a duet is. |
