Bruce was voted one of two ‘Private Mandolin Instructors of the Year’
in 2003 by the Internet Mandolin discussion list ‘Comando.’
Graybill has become a staple for the workshops at the National Flatpick Championships (Walnut Valley Festival a.k.a. Winfield), in both the pre-festival private workshops and the ‘on stage’ workshop during the festival. His easy going style stays flexible with the needs of the particular crowd. Well versed in Mandolin history and in many styles of Mandolin playing, he involves the audience at every opportunity. The key to a good workshop is getting the group to participate and there-in lies Graybill’s talent. Festival workshops are a great activity for all ages, and they compliment a family friendly festival well!
Bruce also frequently provides workshops at the Classical Mandolin Society of America annual conventions. His workshops in this venue have ranged from Advanced Technique, to Bluegrass, Swing and
Jazz Improvisation, and even a Composer’s Workshop.
Music store workshops are another venue for which Graybill provides service. Mountain Music Shoppe of Shawnee, Kansas have hosted four workshops in the past two years. Both the half day Workshops, Beginner and Intermediate - Advanced, have been well attended. Workshops can compliment Weber sales, or to help
launch a new Sound to Earth Ltd. (maker of Weber fine acoustic instruments) dealer.
