Semi-retired Music Professor and Twice Grammy-nominated guitarist and composer. Over 40 years teaching experience, from absolute beginners to advanced students.

José was my guitar professor at KSC for four years. He is an exceptionally skilled guitarist and a highly dedicated educator, with extensive expertise in guitar technique, repertoire, and stylistic literature. His teaching is patient and encouraging while maintaining scholarly rigor. José’s passion for the instrument is evident in every lesson. For anyone seeking to advance their classical guitar skills at an academic level, I highly recommend Dr. José.

I wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend Dr. José Lezcano, whose teaching and musicianship have shaped me more profoundly than I can express. He is an absolute virtuoso—one of the finest guitarists I have ever heard—and an extraordinary educator whose professionalism, artistry, and dedication set the highest standard. José taught me everything I know; his guidance revealed a version of myself I didn’t even know existed and continues to motivate me to strive for excellence. Anyone would be incredibly fortunate to study with him, and I owe my growth and success as a musician in large part to his remarkable mentorship.
