The Instructors
Mark Hanson
Mark Hanson is one of the top educators in acoustic guitar today, having authored several dozen titles on a wide range of subjects relating to guitar and its players. Mark is a gifted player and arranger himself, having won a Grammy in 2005 for his contributions to the Pink Guitar - The Music of Henry Mancini recording. Mark's titles are published by Accent On Music LLC, which he and his wife Greta Pedersen founded in 1986. He was an editor and columnist at Frets magazine in the 1980s, and continues to write for a number of guitar publications. Four of his titles have been named to the Top 100 acoustic music publications by Acoustic Guitar magazine. Mark's CDs are heard regularly on syndicated radio and TV.
Guy Van Duser
Guy Van Duser is one of the greatest Atkins-style fingerpickers playing today. He is also a brilliant arranger (famous for his virtuoso "Stars & Stripes Forever") and a great fingerstyle improviser. We think Guy knows every song written between 1910 and 1950, and can play them all in any key. He is also a wonderful teacher, and was a hit with our students when he taught at our seminar in 2003. Here's an exciting piece of news from Guy: He has been awarded a full professorship at the Berklee School of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. We are thrilled for Guy, and thrilled once again to have him with us in Portland.
David Hamburger
Blues guitarist David Hamburger is a contributing editor to Acoustic Guitar magazine and the author of a dozen books, including the award-winning “Beginning Blues Guitar” and “The Acoustic Guitar Method,” also available on DVD from Homespun Tapes. David has appeared at Merle Fest and the Kerrville and Philadelphia Folk Festivals, toured with Joan Baez, and performed with Tony Trischka, Duke Robillard, Freedy Johnston and Cindy Cashdollar, among others. His guitar, slide guitar and dobro playing can be heard on his solo albums Indigo Rose and David Hamburger Plays Blues, Ballads and a Pop Song and with the Grassy Knoll Boys on their debut CD, Buckeyed Rabbit. He lives in Austin, Texas.
