The Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University

Many students begin playing guitar because of an interest in popular music or jazz, so the number of years of private classical study is not always indicative of a successful applicant. The two things all of our entering students have in common is a love for classical guitar performance, and the ability to read music. These students have been highly focused towards classical music for several years, and have usually been taking private lessons for that length of time. Audition requirements are pretty flexible, but do include several styles of classical guitar music.
