Guitar Circle Colorado (GCCO)

 
There is never any end. There are always new sounds to imagine; new feelings to get at. And always, there is the need to keep purifying these feelings and sounds so that we can really see what we've discovered in its pure state. So that we can see more and more clearly what we are. In that way, we can give to those who listen the essence, the best of what we are. But to do that at each stage, we have to keep on cleaning the mirror. --John Coltrane

Colorado Beginner's Circle Forming
October 7, 2000
Guitar Craft is spreading from the left and right coasts of the US and is settling in the high country! Guitar Circle Colorado (GCCO) and the Colorado Beginner's Circle (COBEC) has been meeting monthly. At present, GCCO has 2 active members, whose present aim is to meet on a monthly basis in the Denver metro area and to focus on basic Guitar Craft technique through group practice of GC exercises, and to learn Guitar Craft repertoire. Both present members have previously attended Guitar Craft gatherings (NST weekends, official Guitar Craft).

At one of COBEC's recent circles, Bill Janssen, long-time Crafty, world-class saxophonist, Denver denizen, and GCCO patron saint attended to "observe and make comments".

Interested persons, novice or otherwise, crafty or not, should contact Dave Cialone for more information.
