Richard Chapman

I've been a instrumental teacher and classical guitarist throughout my work life but I'm keen to have a complete career change and move into helathcare.
This hasn't been a quick decision but after a lengthy process at looking at all the alternatives this profession really appeals due to its people orientated emphasis and solid career progression.

A graduate of Trinity College of Music, London, I teach the classical, acoustic, electric & bass guitar. I teach individuals from an elementary level up to grade 8 which includes the examination boards of the Royal Schools of Music, Trinity College of Music, Guildhall School of Music and Drama and Rock School. I also teach ukulele (beginner to advanced) and piano (beginner to intermediate) as well as theory. I have also run many guitar ensembles which have sometimes included other instruments. My students also play regularly in school concerts. As well as teaching I very much enjoy giving talks and demonstrations on the guitar in schools.
Professionally I perform as a classical guitarist which incorporates solo, chamber and concerto playing. I have performed in festivals and concert series throughout the UK. I also compose a lot of student pieces (varying standards) as well as more advanced pieces for the guitar.
