Classical Guitar Scores

The following section represents all the classical guitar scores I prepared for my students and myself in the years I taught at the three Fargo-Moorhead Universities. Many are still works in progress. I taught everything from beginning classical to graduate level concert classical guitar.

​

Over the years my students were privileged to do masterclasses with some truly top tier artists. That list includes Christopher Parkening, Berta Rojas, Phillip Rukavina, Sharon Isbin, Charlie Byrd, and Adam Holzman.

​
