He\u2019s now won prizes in seven of the 10 he entered &#8212; including three\u00a0first\u00a0prizes &#8212; during his time at 51ÁÔÆæ.<\/p>\n<p>Taucher and fellow master\u2019s degree graduate Samuel Hines recently placed first and second in the prestigious Appalachian State Guitar Festival and Competition in North Carolina. Hines won second place in the solo artist competition at the <a href=\"http:\/\/louisville.edu\/music\/guitarfest\/competition-winners\">University of Louisville Guitar Festival<\/a>, while Taucher took third. Taucher won first prize in the Southern Illinois Young Artist multi-instrument competition, and Hines won first place in the <a href=\"https:\/\/floridaguitarfestival.wordpress.com\/previous-winner\/\">2017 Florida Guitar Festival<\/a>\u00a0and the East Carolina Professional Artist competition. Taucher won first prize in the <a href=\"https:\/\/schubert.org\/blog\/2017\/03\/06\/announcing-the-voice-brass-woodwinds-and-guitar-finalists-and-winners-from-the-schubert-club-competition\/\">2017 Schubert Club competition<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And the list goes on as students in 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s program make their mark in classical guitar \u2013 students have won a total of 54 prizes in competition since 2012, according to Izquierdo.<\/p>\n<p>But for all of them, it\u2019s more about the music than the competition. \u201cIt is competitive,\u201d said Taucher, \u201cbut you also meet a lot of people that are most passionate about the instrument. Some of your best friends are going to be the people you\u2019re working with in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Drawn to classical guitar<\/h3>\n<p>Taucher, who\u2019d played piano, saxophone and electric guitar when he was in elementary and high school, started taking classical guitar lessons as an undergrad at Florida State University. \u201cTo me it seemed like the perfect blend of what I loved about the piano when I was younger and the electric guitar.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hines started teaching himself to play in high school. \u201cEvery day I played a little more. And then during my senior year, I realized that this was what I wanted to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both students came to 51ÁÔÆæ because they wanted to study with Izquierdo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRene was doing a concert on a weekend, and I asked if I could audition with him and have a lesson,\u201d said Taucher, then at Florida State. \u201cIt was one of the best lessons I ever had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hines lauded Izquierdo too.\u00a0\u201cHe is not just a teacher, he is a mentor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Izquierdo encourages students to enter the competitions but leaves the decision to them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a chance to play, to perform, to be seen,\u201d Izquierdo said. \u201cThey need to develop a good stage presence. If they want to make a living as a guitarist, they need to be able to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And, he added, the competitions give students goals. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to be just endlessly practicing without a specific goal. So this is a way to keep them engaged. The fact that they won is a great thing, but it\u2019s not necessarily what I am most interested in. It\u2019s a statement of their hard work and our work together.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Not just talent<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s not all about talent, Izquierdo said. \u201cI take pride in the students who are talented and able to play at a high level right away, but also in those who work hard and do well. There are a lot of things that talent won\u2019t do that discipline and consistency will do. Where there\u2019s talent and discipline \u2013 those are the great ones, like these two.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The students, in turn, admire Izquierdo\u2019s dedication to both performing and teaching. \u201cHe\u2019ll fly in from China and be teaching in the next few hours,\u201d said Taucher.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is hard sometimes,\u201d admitted Izquierdo, who says he has found his passion in a blend of teaching and performing. \u201cPart of the reason why I keep an exhaustive performance career is so I can stay on top of what is happening, improve my own playing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Rene says something about how to play something,\u201d said Taucher, \u201cwe can trust that a lot because he actually can do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>All three are focused on improving the overall level of playing and interest in classical guitar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a lot of great things going on here,\u201d said Izquierdo, who is seeking to bring more young people into the program and introduce the music to others through school and community concerts, a classical guitar society and ambassador programs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel like we are just beginning, and I won\u2019t stop until we get the best program possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taucher received his master\u2019s degree in May and Hines plans to finish at the end of this summer. Both will then be moving into their own careers in teaching and performing.<\/p>\n<p>Izquierdo is proud of his students, but credits them for the hard work needed to compete successfully and build careers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are the wind, but they are the ones steering the boat. They can take it wherever they want to go with it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the guidance of Rene Izquierdo, associate professor of music, 51ÁÔÆæ classical guitar
