Gabe Searles
Guitar Instruction

Gabe provides guitar lessos for all styles and all levels (from beginner, intermediate, to advanced).  His training started off with the classical guitar and then he studied rock, blues, folk, and various other genres. He has over 25 years of experience (in playing, performance, teaching) and loves sharing that experience to eager minds!

Lessons are tailored to each student individually, because Gabe believes every student is different and therefore will learn differently. Lessons typically start with learning to read standard notation and tablature (“Tab”), learning to count rhythm, learning basic chords, understanding the anatomy of the guitar and instruction on how to care for your guitar.

Advanced instruction is also available for learning barre chords, music theory, chord construction, lead guitar, fingerpicking, song writing skills, ear-training, improvisation, rhythm guitar techniques, and studying specific musical genres (from classical to blues to metal).

Gabe teaches Monday – Friday, 2:00-7:30pm

Wendy Payton
Piano Instruction
Wendy has taught for over 25 years and she loves working with students of all ages and levels.  Her "local" teachers were John Trenalone (Placerville), Dilworth Simmons (Sacramento) and Frank Wiens (U of the Pacific).  After graduate studies in Illinois and Iowa, she taught at the college level in the southeast.  This strong background allows her to focus quite narrowly if a student truly wishes, but she prefers to help each student toward musical independence through a variety of musical styles, skills and approaches

Wendy teaches Tuesday - Wednesdaqy
