skills by taking on new challenges.

With us you will receive pleasant and varied guitar lessons, always adapted to your personal wishes and possibilities.

Children from 7 years are introduced to the instrument in a playful way and learn to play their first pieces using simple songs and clap games.

Pupils who are already a bit older, get acquainted with the secret language of the music and learn by doing the solfège they need with the pieces

Adults are also welcome, of course, with or without prior knowledge of solfège.
Extra information
Every musician has his own learning path and can benefit from ensemble playing, perhaps as part of a duo, quartet or large orchestral group if the student wants it. At Mezzo we also know that each of our students has a strong individualistic learning style, that they respond to different instruction styles and study rates. That is why each of our students has direct access to their own time with their core instructor, so that no one is left behind or does not reach the full potential.

Mezzo has a wide selection of programs to choose from. Mezzo wants to offer a customized program to each student. Take customized lessons and teachers with a passion for music, and you have a first-class facility that not only offers an ideal learning environment, but also an excellent opportunity to learn how to play an instrument with them.

Mezzo is determined to help every student. We use a flexible approach to education. Although we understand that some students grow under a more structured arrangement, we also recognize that others do better when they are allowed to create their own routine. You only need to be physically present for rehearsals and lessons.

Mezzo is a people-oriented institute with a focus on first class education and knowledge needed for exceptional performance. By stimulating the students to use the resources provided, we also stimulate a network that extends far beyond graduation. From helping with the recruitment process to working out a career path.

Hallo, dag pianoliefhebbers Ik geef pianolessen bij mij thuis in Gent.

Ik ben lerares geweest aan het conservatorium van Moskou en Almaty en speel in een ensemble ‘Mezzo & Co’.

Wil jij je droom om pianist te worden waar maken? Kom eens langs in mijn muziekstudio: ‘Mezzo instituut voor piano en cello’. Ik geef pianoles aan mensen van alle leeftijden en niveaus.

Beginnende pianisten leren stapsgewijs hun muzikale talenten te ontwikkelen, gevorderden scherpen hun skills aan door nieuwe uitdagingen aan te gaan.

Bij mij krijgt u aangename en afwisselende pianolessen, steeds aangepast aan uw persoonlijke wensen en mogelijkheden.

Kinderen vanaf 7 jaar maken op een speelse manier kennis met het instrument en leren aan de hand van eenvoudige liedjes en klapspelletjes hun eerste stukjes spelen.

Leerlingen die al een beetje ouder zijn, maken kennis met de geheime taal van de muziek en leren al doende de notenleer die ze bij de stukjes nodig hebben

Volwassenen zijn natuurlijk ook welkom, met of zonder voorkennis van notenleer.

Hello, I offer guitar lessons for young and old(er) in English and Dutch.

A little about myself:
I started playing guitar and studying music when I was eight years old. Starting in Spanish classical guitar, I quickly found my way to electric guitar and harder music.
This is how I came into contact with many genres and the theory behind them.
During your hour we can learn to play your favorite music together or delve deeper into the theory of making a suitable solo on a piece of music. This way, after the lessons, you can get started with the new methods and experiment yourself.
I hope to see you soon!

I provide lessons for young and old(er) in both English and Dutch.

A little about myself:
I started playing guitar and studying music at eight years old. Starting with Spanish acoustic guitar, I quickly found my taste in electric and heavier music too.
This way I came in contact with a wide variety of genres and theoretical ideas behind music.
We can learn to play your favorite songs or see how you play a very cool solo perfectly fitting on your song with the right theory behind it. This way you also learn how to get on with guitar on your own and learn to experiment.
Hope to see you soon!

Als klassieke gitarist kan ik veel genres aan, alleen in de jazz heb ik geen ervaring. Voor praktisch al de rest kan je bij mij terecht. Ik ben geen professional, daarom kan je als vergevorderde gitarist misschien beter bij iemand anders terecht. Ik kan je ook leren noten lezen en de basis muziektheorie aanleren indien je dat wenst.

English:

As a classical guitarist, I can play many genres, only in jazz, I don't have any experience. For anything else, you can come to me. I am not a professional, therefore if you are already quite experienced in the guitar I think another teacher might be better suited. I can also teach you how to read music and touch upon basic music theory if you want.

Learning guitar is very easy. In the back of your mind you should know that the first steps are difficult, but once you get your rhythm, everything will go smoothly. Patience and perseverance are certainly tested, but the most important thing is that it remains fun. You can certainly choose a date to admire music with the string of the guitar.

I am Jess, a musician and producer from Ghent, graduated as a bachelor in music at PXL Hasselt. In the meantime I have been teaching guitar for 10 years at music studios and in the form of private lessons at home. Besides teaching I have my own project called Monagi and I write/produce for bands like Tout Va Bien and Patches. I also play guitar at TheShadow Machine. All my lessons take place in a relaxed atmosphere in my music studio in Ghent at your own pace.

For beginners: During our guitar lesson you can bring your own songs that you want to work on or together we will see what the best songs are for you and what you can learn the most from. This ranges from the basic chords that make up most pop / rock songs to playing along with the melody or accompanying yourself while singing. So you can play what you always dreamed of in no time!

For advanced users: Together we look at what you want to work on in terms of rhythm, soloing or improvisation. Which styles you are familiar with or which you would like to learn to play. These lessons are ideal for you if you want to broaden your knowledge of the guitar or if it feels like you've reached a plateau you can't get past.

I'm an electric guitarist for 17 years. I've been teaching guitar for 7 years and performin live for 10 years. Currently, I'm a masters student at KASK & Conservatorium.

Depending on your preferences in terms of genre and goals on the instrument (just keeping it as a hobby or getting professional at it), your curriculum will be shaped. Also it will be conducted while studying your favorite songs. One of my main goals is for you to be able to accompany your favorite pieces and understand the ideas behind those pieces better.

Lessons can be conducted both in English and Turkish.

The sooner you start the lessons, sooner you come closer to be a better guitar player!

Let's discover together what you want to play! Whether it's acoustic or electric guitar, pop, rock, folk, blues, or jazz — from Mozart to Rammstein (but no further :D) — we'll dive in at your own pace.

Fingerstyle, pick, or both? You decide! If you like, we can also include music theory, ear training, or singing, but there's no need — having fun playing is what matters most!

Do you want to play that song you love on guitar?

You have some basic command of guitar already but you need some guidance. Perhaps you're uncertain which 'key' fits you best? Perhaps you're not sure if the song can even be played suitably on guitar? Where to start? Maybe you've tried already from a book or a YouTube video but it's just not happening? But, you just love a good melody ;-)

I'm a British singer/song-writer/guitarist who has played concert halls to festivals in the UK and toured Europe with my own songs. I was raised on the classics. Beatles, Kinks, Ray Charles, Hendrix, Prince etc

I've 'lived music' and 'lived from' music for many years. I performed thousands of intimate gigs and the vast majority of those have been solo performances. I've performed in-front of audiences of 50,000 and audiences of just 1.

I won't get too technical and I won't start scoring music. In fact my music theory is basic, and I wouldn't claim to teach it. But what I'll show you is the soul of the song. Where the rhythm lives, how the groove feels and how to interpret that in terms of guitar. I'll listen to where you're at and be able to direct you better. Playing the guitar is closely linked to 'performance' and that's especially true if you want to entertain others. Thats my strength. To make the guitar shine, to become one with the instrument suits an extension of your body. To 'play' music and feel the joy in doing that, so that it makes you feel good and anybody listening too! That's the goal. Thats the challenge. I believe I can help you with that.

“Music isn’t just a pleasure, a transient satisfaction. It’s a need, a deep hunger; and when the music is right, it’s joy. A foretaste of heaven.” —Orson Scott Card
