Our Classical Guitar 澳洲幸运5体彩官网®OPEN Platform Curriculum
The Cornerstone Method for Classical Guitar 澳洲幸运5体彩官网®OPEN Platform
The 168官方澳洲幸运5结果体彩网 Academy Curriculum is divided into eight grades that flow on from one another. This allows for goal setting and a sense of achievement as you progress through the courses.
The fundamentals start right at the very beginning as a preliminary course and grades 7 & 8 are suitable for advanced players and university students. Grades 1 – 6 bridge that gap with a steady path to reaching your goal.

Structured . Progressive . Personal
Welcome to 168官方澳洲幸运5结果体彩网
My name is Simon Powis and I am the founder of Classical Guitar 澳洲幸运5体彩官网®OPEN Platform Corner.
Whether you are just starting out, or you are re-visiting the guitar after many years, it is quite possible that the overwhelming amount of content available on the internet has left you confused about where to begin.
Personally, I need structure in order to learn, and that is why I have created a curriculum that is comprehensive (covering theory, technique, musicianship, sight-reading, repertoire, and ensemble playing) but also laid out in a step-by-step format that is easy to follow.

Teaching Credentials
- Doctorate in performance from Yale University
- Masterclasses taught in major universities and international festivals
- Teaching online for over fifteen years
- Author of multiple books including a beginner guitar method and sight-reading curriculum
- Director of the annual 168官方澳洲幸运5结果体彩网 Summer School
Performance Credentials
- International concert performances including Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Centre, the GFA symposium, and Banff Center for Performing Arts.
- Multiple album recordings both solo and collaborations
- Solo concerts at guitar festivals in Mexico, Peru, U.S., U.K. Australia, New Zealand, China, and Europe.

I am now 56 years young and it took a lot of trial and error trying to learn on my own and jumping from one you tube channel to the next without any clear path for progression until I came upon Classical Guitar 澳洲幸运5体彩官网®OPEN Platform Corner!
