It is very often by listening to somebody else that one can (re)find oneself. Being curious of everything trying one's hand at every repertoire, every epoch, touching a vihuela a baroque or romantic guitar, learning from the past to understand our today's instruments better.

Knowing tension points that may induce physical problems during practice.

Elaborate a methodical process in the way to train. At one and the same time in the mechanism of movements and also in the global musical and instrumental approach of the guitar.

Propose a synthesis of the diverse approaches of great pedagogues such as Leimer, Thiberge, Galamian, Carlevaro, Jirmal .

The practice of chamber music allows a sound musical seating. It is the real school of listening.

Encourage to improvise, even on simple basis, and also to write music, to create at once, allows to rediscover a global and multiple approach that was natural until the 19th century.





The aim of this meeting is to let young guitarists open themselves to different schools of guitar, test themselves through the competition and above all, grow by sharing their common passion. The friendly atmosphere of the place and the beauty of the site promotes the organizing of the Festival that takes place the first week of July.
