Learn more about the Caz Guitar Program

 

The guitar program is offered in all sessions except Young Musicians.

The guitar program at Cazadero is designed with the skills of its participants in mind. Students should be able to play major and minor scales of at least one octave, be familiar with basic chords in first position, and be able to read single-line melodies fluently. A foundation in classical technique is preferred.

Examples of the desired requisite level for Cazadero guitarists can be found in Frederick Noad’s Solo Guitar Playing Book I. Students in the Middle School Session should be able to play "Spanish Study" on page 49; students in the Junior High School Session should be able to play "Etude" by Ferdinand Carulli on page 83 of the same book. Students in the High School Session should be able to play the pieces starting on page 112, including the 'Canary Jig" by Sanz, pieces by de Visee, or the anonymous "Pezzo Tedesco" (from Chilesoti's collection), or something similar.

At camp, music will be played in guitar ensemble, chamber music in mixed ensembles and solo, if desired. We will work primarily on acoustic instruments. Guitarists interested in Jazz Band must demonstrate some familiarity with jazz chords and will play amplified guitars in the jazz band and in guitar ensemble format.
