Dom is a plectrum / hybrid Blues (and Country) guitarist who, along with Alan, his dad,
were determined to add fingerstyle and classical guitar playing to their skills...
Our final jam session had the olive trees swaying as we mixed some wonderful bottleneck guitar,
with Latin, Blues, Classical and Rock and Roll styles!

Chris has concentrated on the classical guitar for the last two years -
For my Guitar Workshops he chose to immerse himself in my Jazzy techniques.
- Four string, root bass jazz chords and the patterns that I use with them...
- My auto bass ideas that are quickly learnt...
- The 12 bar blues played as a shuffle and with jazz chords and the fun of improvising over these...
- Plus some of my arrangements of songs with jazzy chords...

Linda from the UK applied herself for five hours of my Guitar Workshops each day!
A vivacious lady and talented musician , she plays six instruments - including a pink cello and a purple violin!
AnneMarie came by bus from Holland, a delightful lady and keen guitarist.
Sue and I were able to show her many of the fabulous sights around here in rural Spain.
Plus an evening of village theatre in Alomartes, and a brilliant Hungarian folk group in Moclin!
Well, you have to stick up posters... Sue tries to interest Albert in our GPS
