Meet Michel Rivero, All Keyed Up Music Instructor

Arriving in Canada from Cuba in June 2016, Michel Rivero has an extensive and diverse musical pedigree. He studied at the Eduardo García Delgado Art Instructor School in Havana, where he acquired a diverse knowledge of guitar, piano, double bass, percussion, vocal technique and music theory. He also holds a 7-year degree in Social Communication from the prestigious University of Havana.

Michel teaches both classical and Spanish guitar privately and conducts various workshops on Cuban percussion. As a member of the duo “Sweet SantaFe,” which blends Cuban rhythms with traditional Canadian folk music, he continues to develop his talents as guitarist, composer/arranger and interpreter.

Some of his past students can be found studying and performing at Havana’s most prestigious auditioned music schools.
