Overview

What makes John Bernard Guitar Studio the leader in guitar lessons, banjo, and bass instruction? Simple: I’ve developed a program that’s tailored to meet the needs of beginning students. Why is that so important? Because a good beginning can mean the difference between success and failure in any endeavor.

For intermediate students, I offer general  musicianship training. At this level, students become proficient at working with a metronome, counting complex rhythm, reading standard notation, and playing duets.

For advanced students, I offer insights on technique, performance, artistic considerations, and arranging and recording — all important  skills for any successful musician. Advanced students also learn how to perform under pressure, making my program the ideal solution for those considering a career in music.   

Another unique feature of my music training program is the emphasis I place on singing. What prompted me to do this?

• it deepens the learning process
• it builds confidence
• it heightens musicianship
• it’s more fun for the student (as well as listeners!)

The goal however, is not to train good singers, but to provide an environment that encourages students to use and develop their voices while performing for an audience.

If a structured program that encompasses technique, music history, music theory, singing, note reading, and performance skills sounds appealing, then John Bernard Guitar Studio could be the perfect place for you or your child to study music.
