Chandler Dillingham is quickly gaining recognition as a rising pedagogue and performer in the classical guitar world.

He has performed across the United States and Canada as a solo artist and chamber musician, earning prizes in multiple prestigious competitions at the national level. Chandler has also been invited to perform at prominent venues in the Midwestern United States, such as the Ravinia Festival and the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Concert Series.

"Chandler’s depth of perception and attention to detail set him apart from the new generation of classical guitarists."

​René Izquierdo
Guitar Head at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
​My teaching philosophy is anchored in two core values: purpose and versatility.

I believe that classical guitar students should be equipped not only with the technical skills required for success as performers but also with the ability to thrive in diverse environments. Under the mentorship of Professor René Izquierdo, I have developed methods that prepare students to excel in whatever path they choose, and my role is to guide them toward their fullest potential.
"Chandler is incredibly meticulous and insightful as a guitar teacher. His level of precision, paired with his musical sensibility, is precisely what is needed to take guitar playing to the next level."
