Classical and jazz saxophone lessons - Geneva and surroundings

From 63.18 £ /h

Saxophonist graduate and teacher at the music school of Thoiry, I offer my lessons for all levels and all ages.

After a double training in classical and jazz, I currently teach classical saxophone, jazz, big band and saxophone ensemble.

The lessons are generally separated into two parts with a rather technical / music theory part and a more playful part where we can play duets, pieces with piano accompaniment or jazz standards. I also sometimes bring all my students together on afternoons to be able to play a saxophone ensemble, it's very educational!

Classes are generally 45 minutes for the youngest (6 years old minimum) and can go up to 1:30. Do not hesitate to let me know your desires and objectives. We will see together what type of pieces suits you best.

Hope to meet you !

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Jazz singing from Haute Ecole de Musique (HEMU) Lausanne where I am currently studying a Masters in Jazz Pedagogy. I have also studied music in Dublin Ireland, where I acquired a Higher Certificate in Jazz and Contemporary Music from Newpark Music Centre's Berklee Track program which is facilitated by Berklee College of Music in Boston. I was the 2024 laureat of the Foundation Casino Barrier Award for talent and creativity and a 2018 winner of the Zimbabwean National Arts Council's National Arts Merit Award (NAMA). I am excited to find eager students at all levels who are keen to learn and challenge themselves in making and learning music. My classes are dynamic, engaging and well prepared.

Hello everyone!
I have been a saxophonist for over 20 years, mainly on alto saxophone but also soprano, tenor and baritone. My learning shared between classical or more contemporary music (jazz, blues, pop...) and my experience of ensemble music (Ensemble Harmonique de Bellegarde, Musique Municipale de Plan-les-Ouates, African Swallows Big Band, EPFL Big Band) give me a wide range of skills to share, in various musical styles, alone or in a group.
I offer home classes for children and adults, from beginner to advanced, a la carte or sessions of several courses.
Thank you for reading me and maybe see you soon!

I offer home classes for children and adults, from beginner to advanced, “à la carte” or sessions of several courses.
Thank you for reading and see you soon!

Discover the saxophone with a personalized, creative approach adapted to all profiles.

The classes I offer are aimed at anyone wishing to learn or deepen their saxophone playing, regardless of age or skill level. Through student-centered teaching, I create a customized learning path that respects each individual's pace, desires, and goals.

Types of courses offered:

Individual lessons from age 6 (30, 45 or 60 minutes)
Duo course (2 people of the same level)
Family classes (parents and children learning together)
Courses for adults, beginners or advanced
Courses for retirees or elderly people
Courses accessible to people with disabilities

Musical styles explored:

From classical to jazz, blues, pop, film music, world music, or improvisation—each student has the freedom to discover what they truly enjoy.

My approach places equal importance on technique and musicality. I encourage each student to develop their own artistic voice while acquiring a solid foundation. For younger students, I create a fun and structured environment, working with parents, to make learning both effective and enjoyable.

Courses available in person in Geneva, Nyon, Lausanne and Montreux, or online.
Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your wishes and arrange an initial lesson.

A qualified saxophonist and pianist, I am finalizing my career at the Haute École de Musique de Genève in a Master of Pedagogy. With dual jazz and classical training, plus piano skills, I am able to offer varied musical teaching adapted to each student. I have been teaching for many years, in various music schools or in private lessons.

I am currently a third-year Bachelor's student in saxophone at the Geneva University of Music. I also have a Bachelor's degree in musicology from the University of Poitiers and a Certificate of Musical Studies in Orchestral Conducting.

I taught for a year and a half at the Évian Conservatory and had the opportunity to do various replacements in the Paris region and at the Poitiers Conservatory.

I am open to any musical style and I would be delighted to accompany you during your learning of the saxophone!

Hope to meet you,
