Abstract

This article presents an analysis of a survey answered by classical guitar teachers of Brazilian public universities, as far as the technique and repertoire used at these institutions. Departing from a broad participation (95.4% of the universities offering a degree in classical guitar), it was possible to draw a map of classical guitar teaching in Brazil. The results may raise questions about the pedagogy and the profile of the guitar alumni.
