Cambridge Guitar Holidays - Tourist ActivityCambridge Guitar Holidays run intensive 'guitar for a week' courses for complete beginners and improvers. The courses are for adults and children 11 years plus. No previous music skills are needed for the beginners courses. Brochures are available on request.
Courses are designed for one or two students per course. Students can choose to receive one or two hours of tuition each weekday morning, Monday to Friday.
Cambridge is a beautiful old city, famous for its University Colleges, and where music and the arts are well supported.
Students can study the classical (Spanish) guitar or acoustic guitar. All standards of guitar playing are taught from complete beginners to advanced. Using a Classical (Spanish) guitar with nylon strings or an acoustic guitar with steel strings, beginners learn how to hold and tune the guitar, and start playing single line tunes. Fingerpicking techniques are covered, and the student explores how to produce the wide range of tones available.
On the Improvers Courses students study pieces of music in more depth, considering style, interpretation, tone, dynamic contrasts, and fingerings.
The Guitar Courses are taught by Mr Tim Christmas BA Hons, MA, who studied the classical guitar with Frank Winslade ARCM. He earned his MA from Cambridge University and is an experienced guitarist and teacher. Students from around the world please note that the guitar holidays are conducted in English.
