Kurt is a guitarist and teacher with over 30 years of experience playing music and working with students. He is an active member of several bands, including the acclaimed jazz/world group Eucalyptus. Kurt is very excited to work with students of all skill levels and of any age. Beyond the basics, he can offer specialized instruction in jazz/chord melody guitar, bluegrass and electric country, heavy metal lead guitar/shred, R and B/funk, and improvisation. His approach prioritizes the individual student's learning style and emphasizes the importance of having fun, keeping things lively, and making sure that the curriculum suits current musical interests. Above all, Kurt is dedicated to passing on a passion for all things guitar: its history, its techniques, and the joy of playing it with others.

Kurt’s rate is $30 per 1/2 hour lesson.
