BIOGRAPHY

Fort Wayne native Miguel Burney has been a guitar teacher, a performer, and an instructor for more than 10 years. He got his start by taking guitar lessons from a local guitar instructor named Taras Fossett. Since then, Miguel has performed all over the Midwest and East Coast. Miguel has a diverse musical background ranging from fusion jazz to metal, shred guitar, R&B, blues, and gospel music. He has directed music in churches, has won solo awards in jazz competitions, and has taught guitar lessons to students of all levels and age ranges both locally and internationally. In his spare time, he loves composing piano pieces and studying advanced music theory to further his musical understanding. Despite having a passion for performing, Miguel’s deepest desire is to teach. He believes that teaching leads to discovery, which leads to a musician’s unique voice. Miguel’s goal is to help you find and fall in love with your melodious musical voice and take your passion for music to uncharted levels.
