Do you need help preparing for the entrance exams for Intermediate or Advanced Level Jazz courses? Or are you looking for extra support in your modern music studies?
I'm Andrea, a specialized teacher with over 10 years of teaching experience. I offer:
– Intensive preparation for the theoretical part of entrance exams for intermediate and advanced levels of jazz and modern music
– Reinforcement in subjects such as musical language, modern harmony, arranging and composition
– Practical classes from day one, tailored to your needs
– Teaching materials and personalized follow-up with a teaching platform
My approach combines academic rigor with a relaxed atmosphere. I firmly believe that you can learn seriously without losing your passion for music. We will work on:
– The repertoire you need to master for your exams
– Harmonic and melodic analysis of standards, modern songs, large ensembles, etc. Or any style you need, 100% adaptability :)
– Development of musical ear
– Composition and arrangement techniques
– All from a practical and applied perspective.
If you're looking for a teacher who combines experience, professionalism, and a personal touch, I'd be delighted to help you on your musical journey. Don't hesitate to contact me for more information or to schedule your first lesson.
Availability for face-to-face classes in Barcelona and online.

If you like this approach, write to me! Learning music is an exciting journey, and I'd love to be your guide :)

Important! I combine classes with concerts and various musical projects. I appreciate occasional flexibility to reschedule (only when strictly necessary).

The schedule is for summer; it changes during the school year.

About Me
Hello! I'm a jazz cellist and composer. I've been teaching nonstop for over 10 years, and I'd love to tell you what a class with me offers:

- 100% personalized approach: The first step is to define your goals: learning for pleasure? Preparing for entrance exams? Taking the professional leap? I'll adapt the methodology, curriculum, and repertoire to your goals.
- Dynamic atmosphere (without losing rigor): Relaxed but demanding classes, where practical methods and a sense of humor prevail!
- Hearing + Musicality + Analysis: We'll work on listening, understanding, and analyzing your musical references. The goal: for you to make artistic decisions with confidence and feel music as your own.
- No stylistic biases: All music is valid. We'll explore everything from classical to the most contemporary genres you can think of, using each style to work on key aspects: melody, harmony, production... We'll even analyze genres I'm unfamiliar with together (and I'll thank you for introducing me to them...!)

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!

Tomas
Great to meet you all! My name is Tomas and I'm a passionate violin teacher with more than 20 years of teaching experience. I have a strong academic background in music and education. Here are some of the degrees I have obtained:

- Master Degree in Music Research from the Valencian International University

- Major in Violin Performance from the Conservatory of the Liceu Theater in Barcelona

- Teaching degree from the Barcelona Music School

- Professional degree from the Music School of Buenos Aires

- Specialist in Psychomotricity from University Miguel Cervantes

-Specialist in Early Cognitive Development from University Miguel Cervantes

Apart from teaching, I also run the world's largest Spanish-language violin blog called MyViolinBlog where I share my teaching and playing experiences. I'm also privileged to work as a conductor for the AMA Orchestra in Barcelona, where my students and I focus on musical group experience and technique.

I have teaching experience in different schools across Argentina, Spain, Poland, and Romania, I've developed a unique teaching approach that tailors each lesson to the student's goals, keeping them motivated and on track. I can also assist with preparation for school admissions exams such as ABRSM, Trinity College, and more.

As the head teacher at Esclat Barcelona Music School and Viaró Global School, I'm currently conducting research in the biomechanics of violin playing, and I'm set to publish four books on this subject this year!

Each class with me is customized to meet the student's needs, covering musical, theoretical, and postural concepts to ensure optimal comfort while playing. I love to explain complex concepts in simple terms and inspire my students to continue learning and exploring their musical abilities.

If you're interested in booking a trial lesson with me, let's discuss your goals and how I can help you to reach them!
