Private classical saxophone lessons for all ages and levels.

From 69.67 £ /h

I obtained my Master of Music at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels with Simon Diricq. There I built up a broad expertise in (contemporary) classical, but I am also not unfamiliar with popular music.
I now have five years of teaching experience. All types of saxophone are possible: soprano, alto, tenor, baritone.

In these lessons we will look together for the way of playing that suits you best, so that you can get the most out of it.

I work on various competencies: (basic) technology, choice of materials, artistic development, performance skills, general music and culture appreciation...

Teacher with long experience of styles ranging from classical to jazz through pop, funk and gypsy music.

Instinctive method based on the desires and level of the student and adapts to each student to give him the most comfort and envy possible.

The method makes it possible to play "melodies that we love" and begin to improvise quickly.

Music is the language of soul and nature, it's a powerful tool to express ourselves!

I'm a professional musician with a master's degree from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, I have been teaching for many years in different music schools, I have a lot of experience teaching adults and children, and I give lessons for all levels, beginners, intermediate or advanced, I adapt the lessons to the needs of the student.
My music specialty is Jazz music, but I teach Classic and modern music too.
If you are starting playing flute or saxophone, if you just want to get started with the instrument, maybe you can learn some jazz to improvise your own music, I can help you, I can answer all your questions about the lessons, and arrange a lesson any time!

Pedagogy:

Focused on the student and his own objectives. I will try to guide you towards a plan that will correspond to your desires, while proposing a working method based on the pleasure of playing together, rigor, musical culture and theoretical knowledge.

My favorite repertoire is jazz, bossa, funk, but I also like to offer pieces from classical and pop, accompanying you on the piano to get you used to playing in a group.

All levels and all ages welcome.

Are you a beginner?? No worries: no experience is required! 😁
I can teach you the basics to produce sounds with your saxophone: position of the embouchure (teeth, tongue, lips and vocal cords' position, an element often forgotten), fingerings, use of diafragma,...
After the first two lessons spent on the mouthpiece and neck for the sound production, we will immediately start to play some super easy duos together to practice your capacity of listening, pay attention to the other, ear training as well. I normally use the book of Peter Wastall (titled Learn as you play) as support, but it is not mandatory. There are plenty of good books btw!

Are you an intermediate / advanced student?? I am sure you can still improve in all the basics, but on a different level. I'll teach you the importance of the "voicing" (technique named by the american saxophonist and pedagogue Donald Sinta) to improve your sound production and projection as well as the capacity of correcting and improving the intonation. You can learn all about phrasing and music interpretation, from tonal music until contemporary atonal compositions. And still, you can improve your playing together, practicing in duo on different aspects like tuning, balance, interpretation, performance etc.

Book a lesson and try! If you are not happy, give me a feedback and go on. If you are happy, I will be happy to help you becoming a good musician!

Graduated in classical flute at the Academy, student at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in jazz flute.
The student-teacher relationship is very important in my opinion in whatever subject. Being passionate about music, I intend to transmit this passion to my students by allowing them to explore their own voice and individual creativity.
Expressing yourself musically requires a lot of technique and know-how, but everyone is capable of it with a little willpower!
I mainly teach classical or jazz transverse flute. the saxophone I only teach beginners and only jazz.

Hello,

My name is Joris, I'm a saxophonist and conductor.
As a saxophonist I obtained a Master degree with great distinction from the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel, won the second prize at the national Lion's European Music Competition and already played as a soloist with orchestras like the Royal Symphonic Band of the Belgian Guides.
I'm currently following a Master degree in Music Theory and Conducting at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.
I started conducting when I was 18 and highlights of my career thus far include a selection as one of only 24 candidates for the conducting contest at the World Music Contest Kerkrade last summer. Furthermore I have had the opportunity to work with professional orchestra's like MAV Symphony in Budapest, the North Czech Philharmonic, the President's Own United States Marine Band, the Belgrade Chamber Orchestra amongst others.

If you want to follow lessons with me, feel free to contact me. I'm a very logical person, I always analyze everything I do, which makes it very easy for me to teach and explain something I learned to others. My conducting background also forced me to develop a very concise way of giving feedback and to be very efficient and clear, which is crucial to the quick development of students.
