Classical/Jazz Piano, music theory, Jazz improvisation

From 34.46 £ /h

This class would be for piano students ranging from beginner to intermediate level. I specialize in classical but having played a lot of jazz I could touch on jazz for more intermediate/advanced players. My goal is to introduce piano and music to children in an enjoyable and effective way. As a more intermediate musician I aim to correct poor techniques, give you practice methods and help you become more independent in your practice methods as well as perhaps introducing you to jazz music and improvisation with theory if needed so you can play cheeky tunes.

About Me

I'm French but also English speaking, so I can teach in both languages. I have been playing classical piano for 12 years, and regularly go to master classes to perfect my playing. I like all styles but am most experienced in classical, however, I often play jazz improvisations. I'm a flexible and easy going guy who loves a good laugh but I also like a bit of rigor when it comes to teaching and practicing. I'm good with children and I'm a good pedagogue, able to explain things well for beginners.

Education

I have just graduated from High School at the British School of Brussels. Music-wise, I have studied piano at local conservatories and then with private tutors.

Experience / Qualifications

I am a student of Philippe Raskin and have regularly gone to master classes. I have tutored children from my school and in France.

I am a math enthusiast and take great pleasure in doing math and also teaching and helping this with a little more trouble. I did a math study for my A-level in college in Belgium and did a year of university in aerospace engineering so I'm quite capable in the field. I am very pedagogical and with a lot of patience, very able to explain theorems and concept of maths in an understandable and clear way. I offer this help only for the sake of math! Being fluent in French and English I am also able to teach in both languages!

Regardless of your age or your professional background, you are welcome to take piano lessons ranging from classical to jazz, including current and traditional world music and even film music!

Music brings a lot. Whether it's emotions, personal satisfaction, moments of grace, whether you're a spectator or on stage, encounters and exchanges that are so interesting with other musicians...

Whether you want to start music or already have some basic knowledge, I will be happy to deepen your knowledge of rhythm. Starting with some basic rhythms played in tempo for beginners, or for intermediate levels, the discovery of various styles of music (Rock, Reggae, Jazz, Metal, ...)

I offer different approaches to the instrument: reading sheet music for people interested in moving quickly in the musical world, or learning by listening and reproducing already existing music (ideal if the idea is to acquire some notions for jamming with friends)

In any case, I will adapt to the student's expectations to make the course as enjoyable as possible.

Regarding the teacher:
+12 years of drums, experience in the field of stage, in the studio, 9 years of music in brass band and harmony, a bit of a jack-of-all-trades (percussion, ukulele, piano,...), and delighted to be able to share his knowledge ;)

Passionate about her instrument since the age of 7, she is a high-level artist with a remarkable career. A graduate of the Milan Conservatory in 2017 and holder of two master's degrees from the Lausanne University of Music, she has won numerous prizes at international competitions.

A passionate teacher, she is also involved in chamber music and enriching the harp repertoire through arrangements and original compositions. She has pursued advanced studies with renowned professors such as Gabriella Dall'Olio, Park Stickney, Luisa Prandina, Maria Rosa Calvo-Manzano, Gloria Martinez, Olga Shevelevich, Letizia Belmondo, Eleanor Turner, Fabrice Pierre, and Renaud Capuçon in chamber music.

These studies, as well as the constant and passionate practice of his instrument, allowed him, from the age of 10, to participate in international competitions and win several prizes, such as second prize at the IX Concorso Internazionale di Esecuzione Musicale Città di Asti, first prize in the solo and chamber music category at the Saluzzo Music Pizzico Competition F. Gatti, first prize at the European Music Competition Città di Moncalieri as well as second prize at the Concorso Internazionale di Esecuzione Musicale-Città di Treviso 2020.

In 2022, she won first prize at the Lavaux Classique festival with tenor Leonardo Sanchez for the project Los Ritmos del Amor. This success allowed her to present this program at the 2023 festival, accompanied by a personal creation: an interactive musical tale for children, exploring the sounds of the harp and the world of Harry Potter.

Her passion for chamber music drives her to constantly explore new sounds, as evidenced by her varied projects: her collaboration with singer Floriane Derthe, broadcast on Espace 2 in 2021; her arrangement of Variations on a Theme from Chopin's La Cenerentola for harp and oboe, recorded with Edoardo Pezzini; as well as her contributions to the CD Los Colores de Latinoamérica with tenor Leonardo Sanchez in 2022, for which she wrote several arrangements.

Since October 2023, she has actively collaborated with the Opera for Peace association, dedicated to promoting young operatic talent worldwide. It is thanks to Opera for Peace that she has the opportunity to fully dedicate herself to enriching and creating arrangements for her instrument.
