CORDOBA GUITARS PARTNERS WITH UCLA COMMUNITY SCHOOL IN SUPPORT OF MUSIC EDUCATION
SANTA MONICA, CA –Cordoba Music Group has donated 50 Cordoba guitars and cases in support of UCLA Community School’s Creative Expression Seminar Series. UCLA Community School is a UCLA-supported school located in one of California’s most high density, high poverty, and underserved neighborhoods in the mid-Wilshire/Pico Union area of central Los Angeles. Students actively participate in guiding their own education, and the Seminar Program provides various engaging opportunities for students to explore new interests and develop their skills. Part of the school’s Creative Expression series, and taught by 7th grade teacher Andre Feng, the semester-long “Guitar Heroes” program will run in both the fall and spring of this year. Middle school students will learn everything from the guitar’s anatomy to the works of Bob Dylan and the Beatles to an introduction to music theory. For those whose passion has been piqued beyond basic chords and strumming patterns, Music Theory is offered as a separate upper school course. Firm believers that a child’s first guitar makes a lifelong impression, Cordoba Music Group is proud to provide students with the tools they need to begin and pursue their musical endeavors.

Cordoba Music Group co-hosted a sweepstakes with Jose Ramirez Guitars earlier this year. The winner of the sweepstakes won a trip for two to Madrid, Spain including a private tour of the Jose Ramirez Workshop and Museum. Amalia Ramirez, her nephew, Enrique, and her foreman, Ricardo, showed them the ins and outs of how they handcraft their beautiful guitars. Here are a few photos from this once-in-a-lifetime experience!

We just returned from the annual MIAC trade show in Toronto. It was Cordoba’s first time exhibiting in Canada and we’re excited to participate again in the years to come. We brought with us some of the new models that we released in 2011 (including the Orchestra CE, the 12 Natural, GK Studio Negra and the Cuatro) and we’d like to thank everyone who stopped by for the amazing response and feedback that we received at the show.

“MIAC was a great opportunity to take our guitars ‘on the road’ outside of the states, and see how they would fare. I was actually quite overwhelmed by the warm and enthusiastic responses from all the Canadian Dealers AND our fellow exhibitors; I’m proud to confirm that Cordobas have an undeniable international appeal!” – Kurt Samson, Regional Sales Manager
