Gilles - Asse, Belgium£53
£53Jazz-pop-rock pianist gives piano, rhythm and music theory lessons in Zellik, Wemmel and surrounding areas.
Trusted teacher: 🎼Will I like the piano to be played with music? Ik heb nog vrije plaatsen 😉 Children and adults 🎶 All you need to know My name is Gilles and I give private piano lessons for all ages and levels. I adapt to the expectations and abilities of the student. I obtained a Master's degree in jazz piano at the Flemish Conservatory in Brussels, accompanied by a teaching diploma. But studies were never enough for me: what I love is music: playing it and transmitting it. The jazz trio Base-12, which I created, released a first album in 2019: it was very well received on the media scene. I am also the leader of my pop group TocToc. My artist name is Max Wolly, you can listen to me on Spotify, iTunes, etc. But enough about me (however, I had to reassure you about my musical and educational background). Are you already a keyboard expert and want to improve? In a short time, you will dare to start improvising on jazz standards: thanks to the very concrete and progressive exercises that I will offer you, and the audio examples that I will share with you, you will quickly discover a talent for solos. Are you just taking your first steps and want to progress? I find in every beginner the seed of genius (yes yes, I swear, everyone, whatever their level, has a seed of genius): you will be amazed to succeed very quickly in interpreting some legendary pieces of boogie, rock , swing, pop or bossa nova. The rest of the story will depend above all on your motivation, that is to say the pleasure you take in playing. For those who like technical details, know that I work with the Faber piano Adventures books, which I find very cool. But over time I also made this observation: each musician, each student, is unique. So there is no one way to teach. Long live tailor-made! I can also support you and coach you as best as possible to enter the music conservatory in the jazz section. My two favorite jazz pianists have always been Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea. And I had the chance to study and work on my music from Bill Evans, Joey Calderazzo, etc. It is possible to take individual group lessons (2 to 3 students max of the same level having lessons at the same time) or individual lessons.

Lucie - The Hague, Netherlands£48
£48Experimental Music Composition lessons and tutoring
Trusted teacher: Dear reader, The lesson will be tailored-made depending on your needs and interests. My curiosity and knowledge are versatile and broad. Here is an example of subjects we could touch upon together: - Experimental music composition with an emphasis on electronic music (fixed media composition, live set, multichannel composition), composition mixing instrumental and electronics, algorithmic music - Music programming (SuperCollider) - Experimental music history + specific care of being as inclusive and diverse as possible - Listening sessions - Creating bridges between classical and experimental music - Notation: looking at different scores or ways of writing music than the more traditional ones - Sound synthesis techniques, spectral analysis of sounds and general understanding of timbre - Music theory with a specific emphasis on harmony and so-called rational tuning systems - Basics of recording, mixing, editing, and processing sounds (Live Ableton) - Music research — for instance, if you have to handle written music assignments or carry on specific music research projects - Coaching & methodology to enable you to carry your music project from A to Z - Sharing experiences in the music field and offering guidance and motivational support I am especially interested in working with female and non-binary students who I believe still need extra support in this field but am generally open to all kinds of people, ages and backgrounds! I look forward to hearing from you!

Freya - Norwich, United Kingdom£35
£35Music Tuition Across the Board - Guitar, Music Theory, Music Tech and Composition (from Jazz to Pop to Classical)
Trusted teacher: I have over 10 years of music composition, production, and performance experience. Having studied at The Royal Birmingham Conservatoire (Jazz Guitar) and Leeds Conservatoire (Jazz and Production), I incorporate my education background in jazz and classical music to bring an in-depth perspective on teaching the likes of the guitar, music theory, composition, and production for a range of ages and abilities. I can also provide additional support for students studying GCSE/A-Level Music, as well as delivering unique and personalized lesson plans tailored to musicians’ and artists’ own career goals and aspirations (from recording to music business). I teach in both 1-1 and small group scenarios, both online and face to face. As an actively recording and touring artist and session musician, I have worked with a huge array of different musicians, artists, and producers and have been exposed to a broad range of genres worldwide. I use this knowledge and experience to bring a unique and fresh approach to teaching music in range styles and techniques, from Jazz to Hip-Hop to Classical Music - whether that by analyzing and examining a tune together, learning to improvise over your favorite piece of music, or simply playing for the fun of it. It is important that I grasp an understanding of where my students are at with their instrument or subject before we begin learning together so that I can plan and ensure I approach the lesson in the right way. I provide materials in advance of a lesson, such as worksheet activities or listening references, to allow enhanced learning as well as efficiency during sessions. Most of all, it is important that my students feel relaxed and that they are learning what they love. I make it my challenge to bring something fresh and new to every lesson.

Rafaelos - Rotterdam, Netherlands£23
£23Composition: Acoustic and electroacoustic music, production, film scoring, arrangement, instrumentation, analisys and theory.
Trusted teacher: A composition class that is tailored to your musical needs! This class's main purpose is to help you find your own musical language and voice, either you are a complete beginner in music or a highly skilled musician. The most important question that you will be asked is ''Why?'', in order for you to learn to have control over your musical product, sound and decisions, so that you are always sure that your musical vision is being well translated and transmitted through your work. In this class we are going to work with: 1) Compositional techniques --- Every lesson we are going to discuss about how do you think your piece should be, and about what does your piece need. For that you will need your intuition but also your ''tools'', and those are your compositional techniques. We are going to see them in other pieces and learn how to use them through your own musical vision. 2) Instrumentation --- To write acoutic music you need your ''arsenal'' and those are the instruments that you might use. In this class we will learn the categories, material, sound, structure and combinations of every instrument. We will learn together how each instrument works and how to notate it on paper, so that you are never limited by the nature of the instrument, but instead you are going to be able to bring out 100% of your music. 3) Arranging --- To make sure that you keep your instrumentation skills, we need to put them to use, not only in your music, but also in an arrangement. Together we are going to work on changing the instrumentation in piece and making arrangements of them so that you have a better nderstanding on how the instrumentation of a piece affects directly the compositional proscess and purpose of a piece of music, but also what are the differences between the sound of each instrument while combining them. Also, this will help you make decisions about the result of the arrangement, do you want it to be true to the original, or not? If not, why, and how do you do that? 4) Music History --- Together we will listen to music and learn some basic music history so that you have a better understanding of the different styles, structures and aspects of music, from the Byzantium and Middle ages music, all the way to the music of today. 5) Improvisation --- If you are also an instrumental player, will work also with improvisation. With improvisation you can strengthen your compositional skills, by understanding your intuition, developing your ear, understanding your taste and learning to work with few material, but the most important thing is to learn how to listen and play music with others, because by learning that, you also learn how to communicate and listen all these musical ideas that you have within you before writting (playing) them, controling them and understanding what is needed and what is not in your music. 6) Film scoring --- If you are interested, in this lesson we will also learn how to adapt music to screen. We will learn how to spot the tempo, feeling and texture of a scene but also how to enhance the message of a movie/game/scene/theatre play/documentary with our music. Furthermore will will learn how to use software for midi composition, and VST instruments 7) Electroacoustic composition and sound design --- If you are also interested in electroacoustic music, in this lesson we will learn how to work with sound editting, mixing, design and engineering. We will listen and learn a lot of electroacoustic compositional tecniques to help you explore, understand and work with a complete different musical world. Our goal is to grow your musical perception and horizon. 8) Music notation and software --- For us composers to write our music sometimes we need to use some programs that help us. In the lesson we will learn how to use programs like that, like Musescore, Sibelius, Reaper etc.
