To join the included Flamenco Guitar Course, you need to have at least some acoustic guitar playing experience, although not necessarily Flamenco. The group will be limited to a maximum of 4 students and within this number, the teacher is well able to accommodate different levels of ability.
Your amazing teacher for the guitar course is the accomplished solo player and accompanist, Gabriel Cabrera. Based in Malaga, Gabriel is originally from Alcala de los Gazules.
Past students have been thrilled by both the high quality of his teaching
and his generous, friendly and patient approach.
The course will run for five days, 2 hours daily. It is expected that the time will be between 12.00 noon and 2.00 p.m,
as previously.
By the end of the course, you will have a great deal of material to take home with you. Gabriel speaks little English, but very much takes a "watch, listen and copy" approach to his teaching. He also provides you with written music in either manuscript or tab (according to your preference) and
recordings of your lesson content. This will keep you busy for months to come!
If you have previous Flamenco Guitar experience and are interested in trying your hand at accompaniment, we will try to match you with a dance student for practise sessions. You are welcome to sit in on, (and maybe play along with) the General Dance Class and there may be opportunities to play at our performances to local audiences.
