Guitarist

Stuart Bahn is an experienced guitarist who continues to perform on the highly competitive London scene. Through many years of study and performance, Stuart has graduated from self-taught improviser to formidable eclectic musician covering advanced rock, jazz, funk, country, and latin. Having studied virtually all major playing styles of guitar-based music both harmonically and technically, there's not a great deal that Stuart has not already encountered.

History

Originally from the North East of England, now based in Ealing, west London, Stuart Bahn has spent the last decade performing throughout the UK including 4 years as Brian May in the immensely successful Queen tribute band 'Queen B'. Live performance has taken Stuart the length and breadth of the UK including some of the most prestigious venues, performing in front of audiences up to 15,000 people and performing alongside artists such as Space, Coolio, Alexander Oneal, Jason Donovan, Chesney Hawkes, 2-Unlimited and Big Brovaz. As well as live performance, performing live and recorded sessions for the BBC, and working as in-house composer for Channel 4 Television, it is surprising that Stuart still finds time to tutor the guitar giving guitar lessons privately at his home in Ealing. 'For me, one of the most disappointing things to hear is somebody saying that they'd like to play guitar, but don't think they could. Playing guitar is not hard, it just needs the right teaching methods, patience and a bit of dedication.'

Stuart has studied with some of the biggest names in contemporary music education including Charlie Banacos (Berklee College of Music, USA), Ed Byrne (Berklee College of Music, USA) and Shaun Baxter (The Guitar Institute and London College of Music, UK).

Guitar Lessons and Tuition

'Over the years I've been on the receiving end of both excellent guitar lessons and teaching methods and some poor ones. I have never stopped studying and analysing music and technique, so I've had a long time to understand what works and what doesn't, and also to realise that certain methods of teaching are not always suited to everyone. Guitar tuition and lessons must be tailored to the individual. It's for these reasons that a good one-on-one guitar tutor is essential for somebody that really wants to become a good guitarist' - Stuart Bahn, Guitar Tuition and Lessons, Ealing, west London.
