I wrote a Christmas song! It’s an upbeat, acoustic guitar with vocal, “Christmas Lights Are Shining.”
I hope you listen and enjoy!
Merry Christmas,

2013 Winter/Christmas Recital!
The 2013 Winter/Christmas Guitar Recital is set for this Sunday, December 15th. at 6PM! It will be held in the beautiful sanctuary at University Congregational Church (9209 E. 29ht St. North, 67226) Participating students should plan to arrive starting at 5:30 to check in and get tuned up, earlier (closer to 5pm) if a sound-check is required so we can start promptly at 6pm.
Casual dress is fine. Invite whomever you want, no cover charge or tickets to sell. But we are asking that everyone bring a canned good or staple food item to benefit the Kansas Food Bank. Please be sure to hang around for the Group Picture and the Grab Bag giveaway (sponsored by Midwest Drum & Percussion) for the participating students afterwards. It should last about an hour.
I have a blast conducting the Mini-Recitals. Students are doing a great job gaining experience while playing songs by artists that they are interested in studying. It’s great to give students that are motivated to perform a chance to do so in an encouraging setting. It is a fantastic way to hone performance skills, enhance repertoire, prepare for auditions, meet some fellow students & parents and see results from your guitar lessons as you progress.
Over the years we’ve had a wide variety of music performed at each recital from beginner melodies, solo guitar pieces, singing and playing contemporary songs and jamming along with backing tracks. Students often pick a pretty wide range of music to perform: Steely Dan, Bob Dylan, Cream, Jason Mraz, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Jimi Hendrix, Kerris Dorsey, Radiohead, Megadeth, The Beatles, REM, and Lynryd Skynyrd just to name a few…check out some of the most recently added highlights http://www.guitarrw.com/ !
Be sure that your plans for this Winter and Spring include participating in the new series of Mini-Recitals! We plan to offer more opportunities like this throughout the year, so keep practicing and be ready for your chance. Looking forward to doing more in 2014!

Guitar Ensemble “The Story of Us” (Taylor Swift Cover) July 2013 Guitar Recital
This performance by the Summer 2013 Guitar Workshop Ensemble (l-r: Dylan, Matt, Kaleb, Madeline, Dallas & Nathan) was recorded at Midwest Drum in Wichita on July 26th. This recital was the culmination of a week-long workshop where we met for an 90 minutes every morning and learned 3 cover songs, as well as covered several topics that are relevant to guitar playing and music-making. It was a fun time!
Recitals are offered for students that are ready and willing to step out of the practice room on to the stage. I hope you will agree this is a good and fun way for developing guitarists/musicians to hone their performance skills in a encouraging setting.
Each recital typically features a wide range of students and reflects each student’s musical interests at the time. What you’ll hear could be a landmark achieved in a lesson series, a challenging work-in-progress or a shining addition to his or her repertoire. In any case it is an honor and privilege to cast these and see students as they progress!
