Manuel Diewald has been involved in music since he was just 10 years old when he learned to play saxophone in his school band. In high school, Manuel decided to play electric guitar until he began to think more seriously about music as a career. With this thought in mind, Manuel decided to learn the Classical style and build his knowledge in music theory as well as a broader understanding of music. Currently, Manuel is studying a Bachelor of Music at the University of New South Wales where he continues to learn more about music history, theory and take on an even more serious approach to his technical abilities. Manuel is undertaking a Pedagogy Course to evolve his experience in his Classical Guitar Lessons. Manuel has over 5 years of teaching experience in a wide range of styles and ages. He continuously seeks to learn about education for young musicians and has taken many masterclasses with guitarists such as Denis Azabagic, Guiseppe Zangari, Vincent Lindsey-Clark, Omar Cyrulnik and is currently studying under Raffael Agostino. Manuel is currently with the University of New South Wales Guitar Ensemble, the Classical Guitar Society of Sydney Ensemble and Orchestra (CGS) and performs as a duo with flutist Rachel Woolley.
