PAT METHENY SUMMER MUSIC WORKSHOP UPDATE

(August 2, 2012)

Two weeks ago the National Guitar Workshop filed for bankruptcy, and cancelled all their workshops. Pat decided he wanted to do everything in his power to make the workshop happen. Therefore, we are pleased to announce that the Pat Metheny Summer Music Workshop will go on as scheduled, August 20-24 at the Norwich Inn in Norwich, CT. The faculty this year is made up of some of the great jazz masters performing today. Don't miss this rare opportunity to study with them in an intimate setting.

FACULTY: Pat Metheny, Bassist, Larry Grenadier and Drummer Antonio Sanchez.

We still have some space available if you are still interested. For more information please contact Allyson McFerren at amcferrenlaw@gmail.com.

It is with deep regret that the management of National Guitar Summer Workshop, Inc. d/b/a “National Guitar Workshop” (the “Company” or “National Guitar Workshop”) announces that the Company is ceasing its business operations effective as of today, and that all camp sessions are cancelled. Nation Guitar Workshop will soon file for relief under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in order to carry out an orderly winding-down and liquidation of its business.

Recent economic conditions have made it impossible for National Guitar Workshop to remain in business. During the past several years, the Company has seen a dramatic decrease in student enrollment, and increased costs of operation. Faced with growing operating losses, National Guitar Workshop management has diligently attempted to save the Company through a merger or other business combination, as well as by securing additional operating capital through borrowing and third party investment. Unfortunately, however, none of these efforts has been successful, and management is left with no alternative but to immediately and permanently discontinue operations.

Upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition, you will receive an official notice from the Bankruptcy Court, which will include the contact information for a U.S. Trustee who will assume responsibility for liquidating the Company’s assets. National Guitar Workshop management asks that you direct any inquiries to the designated U.S. Trustee.

wow - what a great opportunity. I've had a chance to take a couple lessons from Bernard Purdie - and it is money well spent. Best instruction I've gotten in my life by a mile. I can only imagine what having some of the best drummers and teachers available in one place would be like....
