A Royal Conservatory Brussels student with a Yamaha grand piano teaches piano, theory and solfege for all ages and all levels.

From 37.51 £ /h

Whether you want to play just for fun or to become a professional pianist I can give you a personalised course. At the beginning of the course, I will evaluate your level and give you recommendations of what we can work on. There are two main types of courses:

- a hobbyist course: it won’t be time consuming. I will help you learn new pieces and a little theory and solfege. The primary goal of this course is to make you enjoy playing in your spare time without having to practice too much.

- a professional course: in this course I will help you reach the level of a professional musician. I will give you an insight of how to prepare a piece or pieces for a competition or an audition. I will also teach a lot of theory and solfege so that you can prepare for a conservatory or a school of music.

Extra information

I have a grand piano at home so it would be better to take the classes at my location. I can also do them online or I can come to your place.

The course that I propose is BILINGUAL FRENCH / ENGLISH, as well as 2 BOOKS.

Age and musical taste are not restrictive when in the program, you can with qualitative daily work (not quantitative) quickly observe your progress.

Here the pleasure of playing music is put forward.

The kind of music you love most will be the focus of the course, their codes and secrets will be the focus of our study, that's what I want to share with you.

We can do technical lessons and simply learn together how to play one or more songs of your choice or mine, enrich your game with this approach and your repertoire!

(For example, We can re-arrange the pieces and make them more original by approaching the system (CAGED), and enriching their chords, resulting in new positions, new techniques and new sounds, using arpeggio techniques rather than strumming for 4-chord pieces, voicing and fingerstyle techniques, in short, expanding the instrument's playing fields and playing skills to keep progressing in your game and improve your rehearsals ...)

If you make a request, this program is obviously accompanied by the pleasure of learning more in theory and being able to directly apply new knowledge on its instrument and identify its common or rare use in the pieces discussed in class.

In this case, the theory is translated to be accessible to anyone, both for those who are connoisseurs and for those who discover everything from absolute zero.
The exercises, songs, and theoretical explanations offered throughout the program are organized in an order of progressive difficulty.

I wrote and produced 2 books of my method to learn the guitar and the music, that I sell to accompany my course and your apprenticeship in the best conditions and so that you can continue the course even at home and to review etc ... .
There is ONE BOOK OF COURSES containing all the theoretical and practical program of the year, as well as a BOOK OF EXERCISE on the ranges and the modes that you can obtain directly.

I have always been passionate about music, I play three instruments, and I recently finished my piano studies at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in the class of Piet Kuijken. I have always found that the end goal of music was sharing, and that's why I orient myself strongly towards everything that is done in groups: chamber music, orchestra, but also teaching, via which I can also share my passion.
My course is for everyone: do you want to start from scratch? No problem, I also give lessons in music theory and musical culture which will make a perfect complement to make you a complete musician.
Have you already had lessons at the academy but want a more personalized or just a different approach? I offer methodical monitoring for each student and I adapt my course to all profiles. Do you want to prepare for an exam (academy or conservatory entrance)? I become your personal coach and invest myself personally in your success.
My course is aimed at students who want to learn technique and repertoire methodically as well as at those who want to learn for fun or for the purpose of learning a specific piece.

Today, a multidisciplinary artist with a passion for teaching, I entered the Conservatory of Music very early on to learn piano and music theory: at the age of 6.

For a little over a year, I have been teaching children between the ages of 4 and 6. My lessons are presented as a fun musical awakening:
- know how to stand in front of a piano,
- hand positioning, fingering,
- learning rhythm and scales,
- note recognition,
- musical discovery and listening.

However, I propose to accompany any beginner, whatever their age (child, teenager, adult). I mainly travel to homes, my Casio piano keyboard on my back, to offer those who do not yet have one the opportunity to try and tame the instrument.

Posture and comfort with the instrument are the foundation for playing the guitar. I often make the connection with other musical instruments such as percussion, wind instruments and singing.

Separating and understanding the roles of the two hands is another important step in the course. One hand plays the rhythm and the other plays the notes on the fretboard. There are many exercises to develop the knowledge and skills of both hands.

My name is Evan and I just moved to Brussels to study at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel. Last year I finished my masters degree at The Juilliard School in New York City. I taught many students in New York and I would love to teach around Brussels! I am able to teach players of all levels: from total beginner to an expert looking to unlock their next breakthrough. Together, we will identify your goals and come up with a curriculum that would be suitable for you. I played throughout the New York area for 4 years, and have lots of experience in orchestra, brass quintets, solo playing, and more. I also worked at J. Landress Brass in New York, and have extensive knowledge of all brass instrument equipment.

I hope to meet you and start making music with you soon!

Have you always wanted to learn to play the piano but don't know where to start? Do you already have a musical background and want to refine your piano skills or music theory knowledge? Or are you an advanced player who wants to delve deeper? I offer piano and music theory lessons.

In my piano lessons, I work with each student to discover their musical personality. Depending on their preferences, the emphasis is on jazz and improvisation or on classical music, supplemented with the necessary music theory. I always try to accommodate the tempo and needs of each individual student. Enjoyment is paramount. I teach all ages.
