In that time, I have consistently observed that every student comes to each learning experience with a set of skills ready to harness for further growth, whether performing lightning-speed musical flourishes or recognizing a song they’ve heard previously. My approach individualizes students' backgrounds and goals, expanding abilities and adding new skills in service of creative decision-making.

My teaching approach: I approach teaching music holistically. I prefer to not simply teach people solos lifted off of recordings. I have two degrees in music and prefer to teach 'music' vs. simply being a technician on the guitar. I help musicians find their musical voice. My influences are: Very wide influences. Great music excites me - from early music to Bach to Mahler to Gorecki; from Louis Armstrong to Miles to Wes Montgomery to Pat Metheny; from Beatles to Zepplin. If it's good, I'm interested.

  • Get a plan on paper about when your lessons will be before you start.
  • Pay a little at first to see if you like the teacher before you pay for a whole month.

  • If I have an urgent problem and need to cancel, what happens?
  • Can I choose some songs that I want to learn?

Reviews for Vista blues guitar lessons

Recent success stories from people in the Vista area.
Rene' M.
If you are looking for a piano instructor for yourself or, as in my case for a child. Let me HIGHLY recommend Daniel Castro. My son is 13 and has 3 levels of the bastien method under his belt, taught to him by his father. My criteria for an instructor was that he have some jazz background along with classical, as well as pop and rock etc. In other words fully rounded. I wanted someone who could ignite give my son the fundamentals that would allow him to open his ears and heart and create. And most of all my son had to like him. Bullseye. Daniel is a multi instrumentalist who has a love for exploring music in all its forms. He too is a student always learning. In my case Daniel has used jazz and blues as the entry way. We are 3 lessons in and he has my son swinging. Which in jazz is the life blood. I listen from afar to each lesson and I can hear that Daniel is patiently and intuitively laying a foundation block by block that will provide a launch pad for my son to not only explore music as it is, but also unlock his own inner creativety through improvisation. As well as the fundamentals that will allow my son to move in whichever direction he wishes to take it should he decide to continue with music later on. I hear my son opening up on the piano now when he practices and its only lesson 3.Daniel does it in such a warm, unhurried, encouraging manner that it is almost a peer to peer relationship. Daniel is intellegient, professional, very personable and always a gentleman. And I appreciate that. Whatever discipline you or your child are pursuing, I have no doubt that Daniel Castro can instinctually provide you a personal, customized lesson plan to move you towards your destination. My highest regard.
