IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Annual Lead Guitar Showcase Concerts - Lead Guitar would have hosted 7 Spring Showcase concerts in May 2020 but all of them were cancelled due to state and local shut-downs during Covid-19. Our Executive and instructor teams rallied to create a slew of instructional videos on our YouTube channel to facilitate at home learning.We also produced two Virtual Showcase concerts in partnership with a donor GSI Found.and partner Cordoba Music Group, in which students were able to ask questions of high profile guest artists and play along to arrangements featuring those artists in online mass gitar ensembles. These videos have received thousands of views and spurred addtional donation to support our work.
