Grisha Goryachev

A native of St. Petersburg, Russia, Grisha Goryachev is renowned for his extraordinary musical sensitivity and technical virtuosity in both classical and flamenco styles, and is praised by guitar luminaries Paco de Lucia, Christopher Parkening and Eliot Fisk. Grisha is one of very few guitarists in the world who is reviving the tradition of solo flamenco guitar in a concert setting that was practiced by legendary flamenco masters such as Ramon Montoya, Sabicas and Paco de Lucia.

Aria Music Academy Private Lessons

Our goal is to cultivate/nurture a love for music in all our students to helthem develop into well-rounded musicians with strong technique, excellent listening skills and thorough knowledge of music styles. We will help each student to develop his/her full potential into a functional musician in all areas of music (sight-reading, technique, theory, transposing, improvising, performance, etc.) In addition, we hope to help foster a love of music in all of our students, and to help create an interest or curiosity that will encourage the student to want to learn.
