Jacob Cordover is an Australian classical guitarist based in Barcelona, Spain. He began asking to play guitar at age three or four, and started formal Suzuki guitar lessons around age ten. He completed his formative studies at the Australian National University School of Music with Timothy Kain, followed by postgraduate studies at the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya in Barcelona with Laura Young and at the Escola Luthier with Arnaldur Arnarson, and studied 19th-century performance practice with Carlo Barone at the Academia l’Ottocento in Paris.

Cordover has performed as a soloist and in his chamber ensembles across more than a dozen countries on four continents. He performs in the Zoco Duo (with oboist Laura Karney) and the Australian Guitar Duo (with Rupert Boyd). He has released eight CDs (four as soloist, four in duo) and has placed at competitions including the Concurso Internacional de Guitarra Festival de Córdoba (Spain) and the Sydney Performing Arts Challenge (Australia).
