   About Michael Partington
Michael Partington is one of the most engaging of the new generation of concert players. Praised by Classical Guitar Magazine for his lyricism, intensity and clear technical command, this award-winning British guitarist has performed internationally as a soloist and with ensemble to unanimous critical praise. Audiences are put at ease by his charming stage manner and captivated by his musical interpretations. His innate rhythmic understanding and sense for tonal colour combine to form some of the most memorable phrasing to be heard on the guitar. He began playing guitar at age 6 while growing up in Wales, gave his first public performance at age 7 and won his first competition at age 9. He has trained with many of the worlds greatest guitarists, including Oscar Ghiglia, Eliot Fisk, Eduardo Fernandez, Manuel Barrueco and David Russell, who commented on his exquisite good taste and fluid perfection. He is currently head of the guitar program at the University of Washington in Seattle. For more information and more MP3s please visit my web site: www.michaelpartington.com

Michael,

It was a real pleasure and an honor to take classical guitar instruction from such a consumate and fantastic guitar player as you. Although it was an introductory class, I still learned a lot. The scope of your playing really amazes me. I am most greatful for the fact that you introduced me to and made me appreciate tremendously, the art of classical guitar.

Thanks for adding me to your friends list.

All the best with respect.
