Sounds Of Freedom V
Sounds of Freedom 2015 was launched at the Salvatorre Lounge in Makati. Students of Teacher Jonathan performed on stage to the delight of friends and parents. The lounge has some of the most sought-after guitars considered collector’s items displayed on the walls. State-of-the-art equipment and band gear were on the stage. It was quite an experience for all of us. Aside from providing a platform for students to experience the full range of learning music through public performance, we thought that it would be good for students to experience what it is like to play using professional music equipment. Cheers to twelve years of awesome guitar education!

Recreation Redefined
Animaguitara is a brand under The Ghetto, a trans-disciplinary platform for creatives. Since 2006, Animaguitara has been providing workshops for schools and select communities in Metro Manila. We may not be as large as commercial music and art studios but we are the first to redefine recreation in the country.
We give regular opportunities for interested students to perform in public. We have mounted shows and featured our students across the broad spectrum of performance venues in Metro Manila. Because we consider our stakeholders as partners, the recital venues are selected by students, parents, and teachers. We are here to help nurture creativity and self-esteem, so that we may contribute to holistic human development. We build lasting friendships with our students, be they young or adult learners.
Our shows and workshops utilize top-of-the-line music gear. Having the right content and technology allow our musicians to be better equipped and inspired to continuously improve their craft and teaching pedagogy.
We have established ties with music experts, maestros, and top session musicians in the industry. We are part of a tightly-knit network of professional musicians, educators, performers, festival organizers, and cultural workers. Aspiring musicians who participate in any of our programs have the benefit of being part of this one big family in the creative sector.
We have a roster of formally-trained musicians who can share a wealth of experiences in the performing arts scene and use extensive instructional materials. We cannot underestimate the importance of formal training as this provides the necessary pedagogy and tools to educate and help young people. We make sure that our teachers are not only highly skilled performers but can actually teach young people of all levels, regardless of any genre, in such a way that their musical sensibilities will be enriched and hopefully, elevated.
We assist talented yet underprivileged musicians who can deliver quality music performance and instruction. As our advocacy, we make sure that we do not add to the number of exploited yet underdeveloped music graduates. It is our vision to nurture culture by giving opportunities for talented, highly skilled virtuosos who will inspire young people to dream. We provide them with platforms to teach and perform across the broad spectrum of music.
This is our commitment. Animaguitara started with the guitar in 2003 but that was only the beginning of a cultural revival. Animaguitara is now celebrating eleven years of quality music enrichment.
