Music Lessons--Mandolin and Guitar

 

With 40+ years of guitar playing and 35 on mandolin, Bill Cameron has plenty of knowledge to share with eager beginning and intermediate musicians.  

 

He teaches private lessons on both instruments in his home near McDonalds Corners (20 min north of Perth ON).  

 

He specializes in Celtic and folk styles, and can also show you bluegrass, country and rock riffs and licks.  Or perhaps you know some chords and strumming styles, and are looking for a better understanding of how to arrange and perform songs for an audience.  Whatever the style of music, Bill stresses learning fundamental musicianship as a way to advance towards your musical goals.  

 

Regular teaching days are Wednesday and Saturday, other times may be possible by special arrangement.  

 

Contact Bill to discuss your dreams and arrange a free introductory lesson!  

 

Below is a video sample of Bill demonstrating Celtic guitar technique --( don't be discouraged, this is an advanced level lesson!)
