About Me

L'enseignement comme une passion avant toute chose, une raison de vivre, une nécessité, un besoin vitale de transmettre et faire perdurer la tradition musicale ancestrale en hommage à nos ancêtres et aux professeurs qui nous ont formé et transmis leur savoir.
La musique faisant partie du quadrivium, elle représente le nombre dans le temps et est un socle de notre Univers matériel et de la vie sur Terre. Du son émane des formes géométriques sacrées, de la matière divine, une connexion au commencement, au tout. L'étude de la matière sonore, des couleurs harmoniques comme pour dessiner des paysages inconcevables sur une toile ou un écran, que seul le sens de l’ouïe permet d’entrevoir. Le sens du touché également, qui permet la connexion si magique à l'instrument, et de concrétiser notre imagination et notre génie créateur par le son.

As a young opera singer, electroacoustic composer, and improviser, I offer singing and sound creation lessons to anyone interested, with or without prior musical experience. Composition lessons take place at my home, as they require a fully equipped studio, while singing lessons are held at Studio Basement in the 18th arrondissement of Paris.
About me: As an advanced student of singing and composition, I regularly perform as a singer in classical and contemporary music concerts. I also compose music for live performance, theatre, and dance. My musical projects are diverse, ranging from early music to contemporary pop.

In the first lesson Younes asks some questions about your experience with playing the piano, what kind of music (genre) you like, and what you encounter while playing the piano.

The lessons are positive and solution-oriented, we focus on what you need and want to achieve. Furthermore, Younes will give an introduction and the basic techniques if needed, and then the intention is of course to play :)

I offer saxophone lessons to beginner saxophonists and to already experienced saxophonists.
I also give lessons in improvisation, theory, harmony, music theory and composition.
In short, everything you need to play and improvise in the style of jazz.
During improvisation classes in my music studio, I use accompaniment instead of a jazz rhythm section (piano, bass, and drums). This effectively prepares students for playing in a real band later on.

In addition to saxophone lessons, I can give piano lessons as a second instrument for saxophonists, which is essential in order to understand and hear harmony.
I give lessons at my home in Paris. For students who are unable to attend in-person lessons, I can give video lessons via WhatsApp.
My job as a teacher is declared. Students can obtain invoices.
I accept students with irregular schedules and availability.

Do you want to play Mozart, Debussy or Sofiane Pamart? Einaudi, Satie or Mendelsohn Bartholdy? Or improvise more freely?
It's the same! To become a musician, it's good to know some fundamental basics that will allow you to become independent and approach the music that interests you with awareness.

You have to work strategically, especially when you don't have hours a day to devote. The goal is for you to feel each week that you are better equipped than last week! And the body learns quickly if you feed it the right information.

My teaching adapts to each person's desires, but I like to instill what I consider to be important foundations for the musician's autonomy, technically (posture, flexibility of the arm and wrist) and theoretically (reading and rhythm).

I have a DEM in musical writing (writing in the style of so-called classical composers) from the CRR in Aubervilliers and I am currently studying towards a DEM in piano at the same conservatory.
I also study jazz on my own and regularly improvise in a more free manner.

Learning music can sometimes be laborious, which is why I like to insist on a clear work strategy by leaving the student with a clear and achievable mission each week.

Let's continue to love music and understand it better!

Hi! I’m Joseph (Jossy Dee) on Spotify, Apple music & all streaming platforms, I'm a music producer and professional artist with hands-on experience creating and releasing original music. I work with aspiring artists who want to turn their ideas into real, high-quality tracks — not just theory, but practical results.

In my lessons, we focus on music production from an artist’s perspective: building beats, arranging songs, improving sound quality, and developing a creative workflow that fits your style. I also help students understand songwriting, basic music theory, and how to use the piano as a tool for composition and production.

If you’re interested in releasing your own music, I can guide you through the fundamentals of music distribution and promotion so you understand how to prepare your tracks for streaming platforms and grow as an independent artist.

My lessons are practical, supportive, and tailored to your goals — whether you’re just starting out or already making music and want to level up with guidance from a working artist.

Graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts and the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris (CNSMDP), I received a complete musical training including piano, harmony, solfège, analysis and chamber music.

Today I offer piano lessons for beginners and intermediate levels, children and adults, with an approach that is both structured and enjoyable, centered on musicality and the pleasure of playing.

🎵 Gradual and supportive work
🎵 Reading, rhythm, coordination, basic technique
🎵 Classical, modern or popular repertoire, according to your tastes
🎵 Clear method + concrete objectives (and small exercises between lessons if desired)

The courses are adapted to the pace, desires and objectives of each individual, with a serious but warm teaching approach.

📍 Lessons at my home (Paris 2nd arrondissement, Rue Montmartre) – acoustic piano available
🗣️ Languages spoken: French, Japanese, English

Have you always dreamed of being able to express yourself with the beautiful sound of a piano? Of producing the most beautiful pages of music with your fingertips?

With 10 years of experience teaching private lessons, 4 years of teaching at the Vienna Conservatory (Austria), and 30 years of piano playing, I look forward to sharing, with kindness, patience, and high standards, all the necessary tools to develop your love of the piano. Lessons can take place at my home in the 17th arrondissement on a Kawai grand piano, or at your home.

The courses can be in:
- French
- English
- Spanish
With musical vocabulary adapted to each language, of course!

Trained at the Conservatoire National Supérieur Musique et Danse de Lyon, the Jaroussky Academy in Paris, and the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien, I have developed a demanding artistic career, nourished by the French and Viennese musical tradition. I also taught for four years at the Vienna Conservatory (Austria).

My work as a concert performer has led me to play in prestigious venues such as Carnegie Hall in New York, the Musikverein in Vienna, La Seine Musicale in Boulogne-Billancourt, the Dvorák Hall in Prague, the Kaunas Philharmonic in Lithuania, as well as in numerous festivals in Europe and Japan.
You may even have heard me on France Musique!

This experience directly informs my teaching, giving each student a concrete understanding of interpretation and stage work.

My teaching method is based primarily on the joy of playing, gradual progression, and adapting to each student. The goal is to make the piano accessible, regardless of the starting level, while developing genuine musical independence.

Each lesson begins with a quick review of what has been learned and any difficulties encountered since the previous session. We then work in a structured way: technical exercises (hand position, coordination, rhythm), reading sheet music, and learning pieces chosen according to the student's level and musical tastes.

I place great importance on understanding rather than simply reproducing. The student learns to decode music, understand rhythm, and develop their musical ear, which allows them to progress more quickly and sustainably.

The lessons are flexible and adapt to each student's needs, whether it's a beginner child, a teenager looking to improve, or an adult wanting to return to playing the piano. The approach remains supportive, motivating, and without undue pressure.

Between lessons, I offer simple and effective study tips to ensure steady progress. The goal is to build a solid foundation while keeping the joy of playing at the heart of the learning process.

*///*Piano Lessons (Accompaniment)*///*

For those who are interested, I offer lessons on piano accompaniment for singing.
You'll discover the basics of piano and chords (international notation, so no music theory) so you can (eventually) accompany yourself on any song in the world just by reading a chord chart! And that's pretty cool, isn't it? ;)

If you have any questions about the courses, teaching methods, or anything else, feel free to send me a message ;)

Looking forward to working together!
Axel

As a passionate musician (piano duo) and holder of a degree in musicology from the Sorbonne, I offer personalized support for anyone wishing to start playing the piano, regardless of their age.
My approach: a gentle and structured teaching method, focused on the joy of playing as much as on technical fundamentals (reading sheet music, rhythm, hand position, basic harmony, ear training). I have also developed my teaching skills by teaching French as a foreign language to adult groups for several years — I know how to adapt to each student's pace and make learning motivating.
Lessons can take place at my home in Neuilly sur Seine or at your home, in the Paris region.
Feel free to contact me to discuss your goals and arrange your first lesson.
