Guitarist~Author~Educator
- While well versed in traditional jazz, classical guitar (bebop and post-bop), Medel draws from a variety of American music forms such as jazz fusion, funk, soul, R&B and blues.
- Guitarist Richard Medel's love of jazz and classical guitar has never blocked out his affection for the pop music which he grew up with. It’s been a frequent wellspring throughout his career. “It’s a lot of what I do,” he acknowledges. “Material is material, and I’m just trying to do things that are interesting to me and that I feel might be interesting to people.”
- As a native of Chicago, Illinois., Medel has had a varied performing career that has included stints in Canada, US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and the continental U.S. having played along many well know stars.
- Medel left touring to return to school after having received a full scholarship in classical guitar to the Sherwood Conservatory of Music. Medel studied with Richard Pick at DePaul University and was a major influence to his approach to music today. After completing his Freshman year, he was asked to join the prestigious guitar department as an Adjunct Professor and continued to teach both Classical and Jazz for 8 ½ years.
- Richard Medel is CEO/President at Virtual IT Security, a Cybersecurity Company.
