Sharing Days

In 2017 I'm also planning to hold what I call "sharing days" at a venue close to where I live in Sutton Coldfield. This will be separate from "The Gordon Giltrap Guitar Academy".

The plan is to accommodate between 10 and 12 players who want to spend the day sharing all aspects of my music, my technique, composition, my advice on guitars, open tunings, nail care (yes even nail care) equipment, in fact as much information as I'm able to impart on the day. This will be aimed at mainly acoustic players but all players, electric or acoustic are welcome.
At times there may be members of the Academy to assist in any way they can. I'm really looking forward to it as it should be a fun INFORMAL gathering of players who like me love this instrument of ours.

This is a completely separate gathering to my more formal weekend courses planned for early spring, and obviously a different price structure.

The first "SHARING DAY" date is now confirmed as Saturday 25th of February, from 10am onwards.
There are 2 places remaining.(as of 29/1)

E-mail Sue Holton for more information.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Keep picking and Happy New Year one and all.
G.

My good friend and sound engineer Mike Stranks will be giving his invaluable advice on recording acoustic instruments, his choice of microphones, the placement of them to get the best results, in fact all things relating to items of this nature - including amplifying acoustic guitar on stage.
Don't miss out on this.
