Giffords to Guru - Pete Sen
Manage episode 325685598 series 2856729
Pete Sen is a co-founder of Gifford's Circus, a multi- instrumentalist/composer and director of an award winning music Tuition company called The Music Guru.
After spending a year playing the Irish bars in Paris with a thrash trad folk band called 'Fionn', he returned to England where he earned a degree at the London College of Music.
In 2000, he was invited by Nell Gifford who had seen Fionn play in Oxford to direct the music for a show she was starting. That show was to be Giffords Circus. He continued to direct the music until 2007 when he left to get married.
He started to teach music privately and clocked up quite a number of students on different instruments. He soon realised he'd need some help and in 2015, The Music Guru was officially set up.
As they entered the school circuit, Pete realised that peripatetic teaching was in need of reform and he set about trying to correct this and bring a new modern approach to music teaching that is more accessible and successful for the students.
He is.....Pete Sen
