The clarinet, a fascinating instrument! Courses for all ages, all levels, all walks of life.

From 66.06 £ /h

The clarinet is a fascinating instrument. Its woody timbre, its tessitura close to the voice offers a wide range of musical directions. Whether you want to play classical, jazz, song or world music, we will progress together to connect the song and the instrument. To develop the breath, to consolidate its supports, to feel the rhythm and to shine the melodies, that is the objective!

I adapt my method according to each student but here are the central points of my educational work:

- Warm up: stretching and breathing

- Sound work: beak, held notes, harmonics *

- Technique: ranges, transpositions *

- Repertoire: Piece being learned, reading *, improvisation.

* confirmed students

SINGING

I attach particular importance to the link between song and instrument. Singing the songs and even the scales improves the musicality, the phrasing, the accuracy to the instrument.

MEMORY

As much as possible, I ask to memorize the pieces. Knowing how to sing a song before playing it is for me the best way to integrate it.

About Me

Clément began clarinet at the age of 8 at the Conservatoire de Nantes, where he studied classical music and jazz at the same time.
This is where he co-founded the Penta Tonik quintet, which performed on several national stages from 2006 to 2010: Europa Jazz, Jazz in Marciac, Jazz in Vannes, first part of Marc Ducret, Carla Bley, Lucky Peterson. He confirms his taste for sharing and boards. He participates in courses led by Kenny Baron, Collard Collin, Eric Barret, Claudia Solal, Karl Jannuska ...
In search of new sounds, he founded in 2010 a trio of "Progressive Jazz", Tripium, for which he composes, while seeking to extend the possibilities of his instrument. He is also involved in more punctual encounters, often with improvised music, also practicing self-taught tenor and soprano saxophones.
After obtaining his Diploma of Musical Studies in Classics and Jazz at the Conservatoire de Nantes, he went to study jazz at the University of Music in Lausanne where he validated in 2015 his Bachelor. He created the project OGGY & the Phonics and joined the group Lost in Swing, two projects still very active on the Franco-Swiss scene.
He also has the chance to share the stage with Susanne
Abbuehl notably during a tour in Japan, as well as Wolfert Brederode, Matthieu Michel, François Lindemann, Pierre Audetat and Ohad Talmor, which makes him a musician filled and curious.

You want to discover this magnificent instrument that is the trumpet without the constraints of a school; you seek to perfect your knowledge in the field of jazz or simply to apprehend the world of the improvisation; you miss a new eye on your basic technique ....
I propose a teaching mainly focused on your needs. For beginners, I pay particular attention to the fundamentals of the "blower" to avoid a thousand suffering.
I graduated from the jazz department of the Conservatoire de Lausanne (HEMU).

Regardless of your age or your professional background, you are welcome to take piano lessons ranging from classical to jazz, including current and traditional world music and even film music! I also teach notions of music theory, improvisation and composition as a bonus. Let your creative imagination run free!
Music brings a lot. Whether it's emotions, personal satisfaction, moments of grace, whether you're a spectator or on stage, encounters and exchanges that are so interesting with other musicians...

My goal is to send you enough motivation and pleasure so that you never give up on this inexhaustible source of joy and discovery.

Hello, I am Clément, a passionate musician and current student at EPFL. My musical journey began at the age of 5. For nearly 15 years, I trained at the Avignon Conservatory, working alongside several orchestras and performing numerous solo performances across France. I also hold a degree in musical studies. I have currently trained more than 10 trumpet students.

My goal is to help you build a solid foundation so that you can fully enjoy music. I am open to all styles of music. I adjust my teaching approach with each student to promote their learning.

The trumpet is a demanding instrument but it also offers an escape and an incredible joy which is (in all objectivity ;) ) comparable with any other instrument.

Depending on your needs, an introduction to music theory can be added to the course.

Whether you are a novice or already have some basics, this trumpet course is open to all levels. I hope to have the opportunity to share my passion for music with you!

My method is focused on maximizing course customization. If you are a beginner, I will try to make you ring some melodies in no time, and if you are more advanced the idea is to make you progress according to your expectations. I am moreover an eclectic musician and I am open to all challenges ...

Music theory lessons, for children (from 9 years old) and adults.

Passionate about music theory and music theory, I would be happy to share with you my enthusiasm for music theory, so unfairly devalued, due to the sometimes brutal methods with which it is taught.

In the program :
- reading notes (treble clefs, C clefs, F clefs)
- reading rhythms (quarter notes, eighth notes, double / triple / quadruple eighth notes, triplets and other dotted notes)
- dictation of notes (training your ear takes time, but when the exercises are "tailor-made" and progressive, you progress faster)
- dictation of rhythms

Do not hesitate to tell me the context of your request (competition preparation, repurposing of instruments, exams, etc.).

The course durations offered are deliberately short to encourage maximum concentration.

It will be essential to prepare the exercises offered between classes, to progress in a way that gives you satisfaction and nourishes your motivation.

Classes available in English as well.

VIOLIN: My lessons cover several aspects necessary for good violin playing and free musical expression: healthy body posture, stable technique, attentive listening, musicality, personal development. It is from these notions that the quality of sound, intonation, bowing technique, technical skill, expression, and many others arise. I also give importance to well-being, self-confidence, or other abilities that the student would like to acquire.

TRANSVERSE FLUTE: My lessons cover several aspects necessary for good playing of the transverse flute and free musical expression: healthy body posture, stable technique, attentive listening, musicality, personal development. It is from these notions that the quality of sound, digital and respiratory technique, intonation, expression, and many others arise. I also give importance to well-being, self-confidence, or other abilities that the student would like to acquire.

SOLFÈGE: My courses cover several aspects necessary for the successful learning of music theory: strategies for recognizing intervals, chords and rhythms and their executions, singing, musical indications, exercises, attentive listening, musicality. These aspects are essential to instrumental practice, because they first allow you to correctly read a score, then analyze and interpret it.
