Diego Miranda Email & Phone Number

Recording artist and classical guitarist Diego Miranda is an active teaching artist in the Phoenix Metropolitan area. Diego began his hybrid collaborations at a young age with bands of all genres, including folk, indie, funk, rock, psychedelic and electronic music, all of which inspired his summer 2017 EP, Ancient Fortress. That summer, he also placed as a semi-finalist in the Wilson Center Guitar Competition. His collaborative spirit has continued to extent as a chamber musician, including orchestral and choral performances such as Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s Romancero Gitano, Purcell’s The Fairy Queen, Handel’s Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day and Xerxes, and Paul Fowler’s Behold the Man. Following his studies abroad in England with Gilbert Biberian, Diego was eager to apply his new teaching philosophies and artistry to organizations in his hometown, such as the Phoenix Conservatory of Music, Harmony Project PHX, Pan-American Charter School, and his growing private studio. During the summer, Diego leads the content creation as the Audio/Video Coordinator at Madeline Island Chamber Music, a distinguished chamber music training program in Lake Superior. Diego holds a Bachelor of Music from University of Denver and a Master of Music at Arizona State University. His teachers have included Frank Koonce, Ricardo Iznaola, Jonathan Leathwood, Gilbert Biberian and Laura Husbands. As a teaching artist, Diego’s passion is to lead students to become autodidacts in a comfortable and respectful learning environment by helping them achieve a superior sense of self-efficacy.
