About Tony

Dear prospective student,

I would like to share a few words about myself. I am a professional classical guitarist, chamber musician and educator. I am a graduate from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music where I received my Bachelor and Master of Music degrees, as well as a Professional Studies Diploma under the tutelage of famed classical guitarists Sérgio Assad and David Tanenbaum. I am the winner of various classical guitar festivals including the Sierra Nevada, Sinaia, Craiova and Assenovgrad classical guitar competitions and hold awards from the Portland, Louisville, Tennessee and SFCM Concerto Competitions. I have participated in organizing and judging various events including the Walnut Creek and Sierra Nevada Guitar Festivals. I am an active performer both as a soloist and a chamber musician with the Pacific Guitar Ensemble, a group consisting of SFCM guitar faculty and selected alumni. I have appeared in concerts at major guitar festivals and concert series among which are La Guitarra California, Guitar Foundation of America, Omni Foundation Guitar Series, Cranbrook Music Guild and various classical guitar societies. I have a passion for teaching and have given performances and masterclasses at Portland State University, Fullerton State University, Humboldt State University, UC Santa Cruz and others. As an instructor I was the classical guitar faculty at the top rated charter Oakland School for the Arts for six years and maintain a large private studio.

I look forward to meeting you and guide you through your musical journey!

I am passionate about classical guitar and take joy in teaching this art to kids and adults of all ages and levels! I have been teaching guitar for over fifteen years and take great enthusiasm in it. I focus on proper technique, which will allow the guitarist to play relaxed and with ease; musicality, which is such an essential part of classical guitar music, as well as having a beautiful sound. I will provide you with a good approach to guitar playing including exercises to strengthen your technique and ways to practice in order to build a solid playing foundation. I am patient but will also challenge my students to progress naturally.

My students have participated in various guitar festivals in the Bay Area and have received awards from the Walnut Creek and San Francisco Bay Guitar Festival and Competitions. My Oakland School for the Arts Classical Guitar Ensemble holds the highest 'Superior' ratings from the South Bay Guitar Society for four years in a row and have been granted the Tom Gardin Memorial Scholarship in 2016.
