Will Truong

Learn a little more about Will:
"I enjoy learning new things in my music lessons.  My favorite songs to play are "Living' on a Prayer, "I Get Around" and "Fur Elise".   I am 10 years old and have been taking music lessons for about two years.  Do I have any other hidden talents?  No, I don't have any other talents that I know of."
His teacher, Mr. Sam, says "Will is one of the yoiungest and most talented students I have ever taught.  He just gets it.  He understands the staff and how it applies to the guitar fretboard (which is no easy task!).  He comes every week prepared to blow my mind and despite every challenge I throw at him, he never backs down.  Instead he absorbs it and just adds it to his list of skills.  I strongly believe that with Will learning at this pace, he can be an elite guitarist!"
