Saxophone, Music, Ear Training & Harmony. Exploring saxophone through jazz and classical music.

From 31 £ /h

I am a saxophonist and music student with around ten years of experience, with a background in both classical and jazz music. I studied at a music high school before specializing in jazz at Siena Jazz, where I developed a strong foundation in saxophone, improvisation, harmony and music theory.
As a teacher, I like to create a relaxed and motivating environment where students can learn at their own pace. I believe that lessons should be adapted to each student's level, interests and goals. We can work on technique, sound, reading, improvisation, jazz language, theory or simply learn to play the music you enjoy.
Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some experience, my goal is to help you become more confident with your instrument while developing your own musical personality. I particularly enjoy working with students who are curious and want to explore different styles and approaches to music.

Graduated musician offers music lessons for all ages, experiences and interests. The main process will take place considering the previous knowledge of the student, in order to start a personal and individual learning path. Lessons can be about Drums, but also music theory, harmony, ear training, rhythm, percussions, double bass. The main tool will be the listening and the comprehension of musical sounds, forms and feelings, in order to avoid a mere intellectual study. Playing and listening first!
