About Kris
Kris Ramakrishna is a Swiss/Indian guitarist, composer/arranger, author, and educator based in Valencia, Spain. Beginning lessons on the guitar at the early age of 5, his unique and sought-after sound is in direct correlation with his diverse ancestry, taking influences from European and Indian classical, Jazz/Blues, as well as incorporating musical vocabulary from his studies with legendary Palestinian composer and Oud player Simon Shaheen, and disciple of Paco de Lucia, flamenco guitarist Ruben Diaz. Between the ages of 16 and 17, Ramakrishna, in affiliation with the Berklee Clinics at Umbria Jazz, was given the opportunity with students from around the world to perform at the Umbria Jazz Festival ’13 and ’14, one of the largest Jazz festivals in Europe. After meeting Paco de Lucia in 2012, Kris pursued a more in-depth understanding of Flamenco harmony, resulting in the bestowment of the final composition grant by the Contemporary Flamenco Guitar Studio in Malaga, Spain. Holding a bachelor's in Jazz composition and arranging from Berklee College of Music, as well as a Master's in contemporary performance and production from Berklee Valencia, Kris has performed internationally, as a soloist, and with various ensembles. Kris Ramakrishna aims to celebrate the differences and similarities between these musical dialects in order to establish a unity between these incredible cultures.

Hello everyone! Any age, level, or goal, I'm here to guide you. The most important thing to me is that you enjoy what you are learning. The more you enjoy, the more you want to learn. I can provide a curriculum that I have been teaching for the past 10 years, or if you already have a system you like we can go with that. I have had students with goals from just learning the basics of music theory to applying to the top music schools in the world. I am patient and student-centric, and very grateful to be here to help you achieve your goals!

Kris tailors his lessons to exactly what you want. Every lesson is fun and hard and it feels like I leave each time with a whole new skill to practice. He is so knowledgeable, approachable, creative, supportive, flexible, kind and is such an immediate friend. He also manages to balance professionalism and familiarity perfectly. It is really obvious that he loves music in all its shapes and forms. He is helping me learn strumming, fingerpicking, chords, music theory, safe posture to ensure musical longevity, AND has helped me buy my own instrument. Kris has taken my goals very seriously and we jam together a little during every lesson which really brings the learning to life! I greatly enjoy our time together and appreciate all I have learned and continue to learn from him. I truly couldn't recommend Kris' lessons more!
Kris is a knowledgeable and skilled teacher. As a professional musician myself who has seen him giving lessons, I can say that he knows what he’s doing and how to cater his lessons to his students better than many music teachers that I've observed in my career. You won’t regret taking lessons with him as he also is incredibly kind and cares deeply about music education.
Kris is a very good teacher and I like his class very much. Super recommended!
Kris is so patient, kind, understanding and really just wants to see the little musician in you thrive in happiness! He’s great at explaining movements and sounds and rhythms in various ways to make sure your understand. I highly recommend him for people of any age who want to pick up the guitar and tickle the strings.
Kris and I met through social media after I shared some questions regarding my application to music school. We met up for a coffee and he agreed to help me out. What I like about Kris is that he is a very professional and serious teacher, but still very approachable, friendly and caring. He is able to motivate and push you to achieve your ambitions, but he always does from a kind and understanding place. During this process, I improved so much on the technical aspects like ear training, music theory and musicality, but I’ve also gained so much confidence in my craft. He’s a very good teacher, but ultimately, an amazing human being. I could not recommend him enough!

Details
I understand that not everyone has the same financial background, so I remain open-minded to students who wish to study with me at a more affordable rate. The current price is based off of the obtaining of a bachelor's and master's from renowned music institute Berklee College of Music. With 10 years of performing and teaching in both North America and Europe, I believe my expertise is worth the price. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns.
