Being away from everyday cares and
responsibilities allows for
intense focus
on music; therefore, many students
make
major
technical and conceptual strides
during the week. Learning
becomes much
easier around people who have similar
goals
and who want you to succeed.

"I came to AAGC for the instruction. I came back for the people,
scenery, friendship and sense of shared progress. Joe consistently
has top-notch instructors. If the idea of immersing yourself for a week in music and nature appeals, AAGC is the must-do guitar camp."
- Andy from Eagle River, AK
Class of 2006-2011
"Acoustic Alaska is a wonderful get away to nurture my musical self. I can either concentrate fully on daily courses and after-hours instruction from any of the amazing teachers, or simply have fun jamming with new friends, take a hike around the lake or a coveted afternoon nap. One of the best 30 minutes of my life was sitting at the campfire on a comfortable Alaska evening in an audience of about half a dozen people as Lawrence Juber and Russ Barenberg jammed together. I was more entertained and fulfilled that evening than I ever remember being at a big concert in the city."

- John from Kent, England
