My academic education as a jazz and modern music performer was consolidated through L'AULA of the Liceo Conservatory and the ESMUC (Higher School of Music of Catalonia).

In 2015 I presented my second album titled A Strings Affair, receiving good reviews from both national media (Jazz Butlletí del l'AMJM) and international media, even being broadcast on a Canadian jazz radio station in the city of Winnipeg.

The same year I premiered "Fantasia Quintet": a string and guitar quartet with soundtrack arrangements, touring civic centers in Barcelona and surrounding areas. It is currently still active.

I have participated and led groups of various styles, performing my music in important places on the music scene such as: Jamboree Jazz Club, MNAC (Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya), L'Auditori (with the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra and the National Orchestra of Catalonia). ), Royal Palace of Pedralbes, ...

A young clarinetist and teacher, he graduated in Higher Education with a specialization in clarinet performance from the Conservatori Superior del Liceu, with Isaac Rodríguez as his teacher, and completed the first year of the Bachelor's Degree in Primary Education. He has also attended regular classes with Miguel Espejo and master classes with Giovanni Punzi, Nicolas Baldeyrou, Phillip Berrod, Hedwig Swimberghe, Josep Fuster, Luís Gomes, and José Luis Estellés.
He has been part of the Ataúlfo Argenta Youth Symphony Orchestra for 7 years, as well as participating in concerts in some of the great theaters on the national scene, such as the Gran Teatre del Liceu, L'Auditori de Barcelona or the Euskalduna Palace, alongside artists of renowned prestige, such as Pacho Flores, Joyce DiDonato or Jordi Savall, and performed symphonic works under the baton of Hugo Carrio, Borja Quintas, Manel Valdivieso, Jhoanna Sierralta, José R. Pascual-Vilaplana or Lara Diloy.

Additionally, currently (2025), he is working as the sole author on the composition of the soundtrack for a feature film, as well as creating music through more personal projects.

In the pedagogical field, I have been teaching clarinet and musical language classes for 8 years.
My specialty is the clarinet, but I offer lessons in harmony, composition, musical analysis, musical language (solfeggio), piano and guitar.
In these years I have learned with students of all ages, from the youngest years to older adults, both in private classes and in music schools, and the result for everyone (including me) has been enjoyment and learning. The most important thing, I think, to be able to learn without dying in the attempt, is that there is a great understanding, and that is why I love that they ask me questions and everything is always clear, since music is not an easy discipline, but it deserves the grief. And it is especially worth it when you understand what is happening to you while you learn and fall and learn again (both in music and in your emotions when practicing an artistic discipline live).

I'm a musician, composer and producer from the UK with more than 20 yrs teaching experience.
I give classes for guitar, bass guitar, theory, composition, arranging, mixing and production in English with intermediate Spanish.

I have my own approach to teaching drawn from my own inspirational teachers and the experience of teaching, performing and recording for over 30 years.

I adapt to the needs and goals of the student, but a typical 1st year class for guitar would involve focusing on a variety of pieces in different styles and suggestions of any helpful technical exercises, reading, rhythm playing, expanding chord/harmony knowledge and supporting theory. In time I would include new techniques as required by the piece and style and improvisation/composition to follow the student’s interest.

I have developed an accelerated program with the goal of the student playing their favourite pieces as soon as possible. My constant aim is to find the right balance between student motivation and a thorough musical grounding, equipping the student for the future.

If you're starting or improving guitar or need help with your songs ask me anything.

Hello! I've been teaching continuously for over 10 years, and I'd like to explain what you can expect from a class with me.

Personalized approach: The most important thing is to know what you want to achieve. I will tailor the lessons to your needs: playing for pleasure at home is not the same as preparing for entrance exams (although always with the same rigor). Your goals will influence the methodology, the organization of your studies, the repertoire, and so on.

Relaxed (but rigorous) environment: Once you've defined your goals, classes will be dynamic and pressure-free. Note! "Relaxed" doesn't mean undemanding; we'll just avoid military methods—especially given my personality and sense of humor.

Music, not just notes: My methods are very dynamic, with a special emphasis on hearing and musicality. No "read, play, and turn the page." I avoid approaches obsessed with reading sheet music without memorizing, listening, or understanding what is being played. I want you to own your performance and make artistic decisions. Warning! I might even make you sing.

No stylistic barriers: Thanks to my training in Jazz and Modern Music, I give equal importance to all genres. Adapting to your tastes, we'll go from baroque to blues, from Haydn to bebop... or even Michael Jackson. Why not?

If you identify with this approach, contact me! Learning the cello is a pleasure, and I'd love to share it with you!

Hello everyone, I give private lessons in saxophone, music theory, composition, improvisation and piano rudiments.

My name is Beatrice, I am from Italy and I am 26 years old. I tell you a little about myself.
I trained as a classical musician at the Music School of Fiesole, Florence, on saxophone and piano. After a two-year experience at the CAM School of Music in Florence, in 2015 I moved to Valencia to carry out an Intensive Intermediate Jazz Workshop in the Sedajazz musicians' collective with the teachers Alexey León and Jesús Santandreu. I graduated in Linguistic and Cultural Mediation while doing musical projects with various Florentine groups, studying saxophone with Maestro Claudio Giovagnoli. In 2021 I came to Spain for the Master's Degree in Music as an interdisciplinary art of UB/ESMUC/URV. I graduate in September 2022 with thesis ''Music as a tool for the deconstruction of traditional binary power structures: a journey through gender, body and voice''. For the last year I have wanted to experiment musically with the EWI 4000s Electronic Wind Synthesizer. I am now attending a music production course on Ableton Live.

A flamenco guitar course in private classes is an incredibly enriching experience. During these classes, I will completely focus on you and your goals as a flamenco guitarist.

We will begin by exploring the world of flamenco together: its history, its diverse styles and its unique emotions. As we progress, you will learn the essential techniques of the flamenco guitar, such as the strumming, the "picao" and the golpe, among others. My goal will be to help you master these techniques and express yourself fluently and passionately through your guitar.

In addition, we will delve into the fascinating flamenco compás, so that you can understand and play the characteristic rhythms of this genre. I will also teach you the chords and harmonic progressions that are commonly used in flamenco, as well as the scales and musical modes that give it its unique flavor.

The best thing about private classes is that I can adapt the course to your needs and preferences. If you have a particular style of flamenco that you'd like to explore further, we'll do it! We will also address your pain points and work together to overcome them.

During the classes, I will be by your side to correct you, answer your questions and give you constant feedback. In addition, I will teach you iconic pieces of the flamenco repertoire so that you can develop your own interpretation and personal style.

With time and dedicated practice, I'm sure you'll be able to play flamenco with passion and mastery. I am excited to embark on this musical journey with you and help you achieve your goals as a flamenco guitarist. Together, let's make magical music!

Piano lessons in Jazz, Classical, or Modern styles; depending on the student's interest, we can mix a bit of everything or delve deep into one style.

Main focus applied to overcome the problem of piano: mastering two-handed rhythm. To achieve this, I teach left-hand grooves and foundations while working on improvisation, harmony, melodies, accompaniments, and everything there is to play with the right hand. I introduce piano techniques such as walking bass, tenths, stride, drop 2, and more.

From my experience, rhythm, "Groove", and the connection with the music in the moment it is being played are the most challenging aspects to learn and integrate. Thus, I give significant emphasis to these topics in my sessions, especially those aimed at playing polyrhythmic instruments such as the piano.

I cover compositional tools, approaching Jazz Standards, accompaniment techniques, improvisation methods for any instrument, Blues tools, methods to strengthen the relationship with the instrument, analysis, and listening skills. I also teach classical piano for those interested, and offer specific training in rhythm and percussion.

I am fully committed to my students.

With over 12 years of experience in music education, both in individual and group settings, I have a good rapport with boys and girls.

Feel free to reach out, my friend! Long live music.

From the perspective of a concert pianist, I provide a comprehensive variety of adaptable lessons suitable for students at all levels. My teaching covers a broad range of music genres: from classical to jazz, pop, neoclassical, and film music.

With over a decade of experience as an educator, I specialize in preparing students for internationally recognized music examinations such as ABRSM, Trinity College, and the Conservatori del Liceu in Barcelona. However, i set the personal goal of each student at the center of the lessons. I have also spent four years teaching at a school affiliated with Liceu, fostering musical growth in students.

My aim in the lessons is to cultivate a welcoming atmosphere where students feel motivated to progress and enjoy music.

My guitar lessons are a real experience for those who study with me. What matters most to me is that my student can fulfill his desires with the guitar and music. I do not impose predetermined classes, but I leave the person free to express what he wants to learn. I am helpful in transmitting to you the skills that are right for you. When you enter my studio room it is like stopping time and being able to focus on yourself, on your sensations and on what really makes you happy with the guitar. There will be work to do, but I promise that the journey will be pleasant and the result incredible. You will discover that you are capable of doing great things!
