About Jonny

I am a guitarist, composer, arranger, and educator.
I have performed and recorded with the likes of The Mad Professor, Polar Bear, Giorgio Serci, and my own critically acclaimed group Oriole.
I have taught at Weekend Arts College, Southwark Blue Note, and Community Music as well as leading many workshops including at Cheltenham International Jazz Festival. I currently teach for Wandsworth Council and privately. I'm also writing music for a feature film which will be released next year.

Reviews

BBC Music Magazine – “Outstanding” *****

About the lesson

Above all, I try to make lessons clear and enjoyable, but also help with:

Learning your favourite songs or pieces accurately
Learning the fretboard and understanding some theory
Techniques to help you play with more ease
Timing issues, by using backing tracks and loops
Understanding a variety of styles; rock, pop, blues, jazz, world and folk
Scales, theory and ear training, if you are interested
Beginners, advanced, old, and young students are all equally welcome.

I can teach you songs and pieces of your own choice, see the scores section. I have also found that the structure of Trinty College Rock and Pop books and graded exams are a great structured way to learn.

For the classical guitar I endeavour to facilitate:

A solid and up to date right and left-hand classical guitar technique
A rich and broad Classical repertoire taking you on a journey through Spain, South America, and beyond, also back in time exploring Bach’s beautiful Lute music.
Knowledge of music theory and sight-reading
Some knowledge of composition and how the pieces have been built
Understanding of interpretation and sound quality
Great marks in Trinity College exams

All lessons are currently online due to Covid-19, this can be preferable in some ways, as students are comfortable in their own space. I teach via Skype or Zoom and have a great set up, so both the video and the sound are very clear.
