Singing is a way of expression that helps you to connect to yourself and others. As a jazz-singer, performer and vocal coach I encourage anybody to join my classes. I work with adults and children also, helping them to improve their music skills by a playful method.

My teaching philosophy relies on finding the best path that fits the student. You will be able to learn your favorite songs and styles very quickly, even without any music knowledge beforehand. My focus is on playing popular music, jazz/blues/funk, soundtrack/game music and learning how to play songs from chords without having to read proper sheet music for two hands. Bring your favorite songs and be able to play them quickly!

Come over for a session, let's meet and get to know each other, and plan your journey with no strings attached.

Have you always wanted to learn piano, but never had the time? Are you afraid that you won't be able to progress without having strong foundations as a child? Then you should come for a lesson!

I'm also offering music theory and music production lessons for those who are interested in producing music with/without the computer.

For advanced students i'm offering jazz piano, music theory as well.

Dear Music Friends,

My name is Marcell, I’m 29 years old, and I graduated from the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music.

I’ve been teaching privately for 10 years now, I have taught at the Buda “Kis Zene” music school, and as a traveling musician I’ve also toured parts of Europe.

I teach piano, solfège, music theory, and improvisation. I’m also open to lighter genres such as pop or jazz, and we can explore film music as well.

For me, the word “dictatorship” does not exist in teaching. The lessons are tailored to the student’s needs and delivered within a professional framework.

I have students of all ages. Perhaps what I love most about my work is this diversity, and the shared joy when a student reaches and surpasses a milestone.

I also offer lessons at your home — by arrangement.

I look forward to hearing from you!
