      Get to know Robert Weintraut

      I'm Robert. I moved to the Easter Shore in 2016, and began teaching elementary music in Somerset County. Prior to moving to the Eastern Shore, I taught Guitar and Music History at various colleges, including Rowan University, Lynchburg University, and Gloucester County Community College, among others. I'm a classical guitarist and lutenist. Playing guitar has brought me all over the world; I've been fortunate enough to perform in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. I earned Bachelors degrees in Classical Guitar Performance, Jazz Education, and Jazz Guitar Performance. I also hold masters degrees in Classical Guitar Performance, and in Music Education. I've been teaching private guitar and piano lessons since 2006. I've had many great teachers over the years. Some of the most influential have been Joseph Mayes, and Julian Gray. They have been an inspiration to me, and I strive to be as great a teacher as they. In my free time, I enjoy furniture building and lutherie. I have been building guitars since 2010.
