The joy of playing classical guitar extends beyond the prize (the perfect performance). It’s the daily journey and how we travel it. That’s where we find the gold. That’s where we discover the humanity, in both the music and in ourselves. | ||
— Allen Mathews | ||
Allen Mathews is a professional musician and classical guitar instructor who maintains a site located at: https://classicalguitarshed.com/ | ||
Every Tuesday, Allen posts a quote (which may or may not be specifically about music). He then goes on to tie the quote to a “teaching moment”. Allen’s “Quote page” is located at: https://classicalguitarshed.com/tuesday-quotes/ | ||
[Disclaimer: Although I have viewed many of Allen’s videos and subscribed to his emails for over a year, I have not personally purchased any of his packages of instruction as I am merely dabbling in “classical” guitar to see what it’s about. I have no other association with Allen or his site and have not requested permission to re-post this quote. If he requests it, I will remove or substantially edit this quote. — kmab] | ||
