We offer Guitar lessons here at Dancin’ Stars and we are
eager to have you as a guitar student on Tuesdays from 5-9pm or Thursdays from 5-9pm with Harold Donnelly.
Harold Donnelly is an active member of the Vancouver music scene playing
with various groups and teaching. He holds a Diploma in Contemporary Jazz
guitar from Vancouver Community College, and is currently working towards a
Music Education Degree from Capilano University. Over the years he has recorded
many albums with various Vancouver based musicians. One current project is with
local guitarist John Sponarski. The two front a group called ‘
Portage and Main’, which released their debut full length
in March, and embarked on their first Western Canadian Tour last June.

“ I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could
always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and
ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with
music.” ~George Eliot
“When I hear music I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I
see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and the latest.” ~ Henry David
Thoreau
