Have you thought of learning to play saxophone but aren't too sure where to begin? Well, I can help with this. I havr studied music at college and completed two years of university so far. I have a passion for teaching and I love seeing people progress. If I could help you with learning this instrument, along with music theory, it would be a pleasure.

Thanks to this course, you will have a good general knowledge of the drums as well as the methods to apply to play them "correctly". You will learn how to play different styles of music, how to tune and maintain your instrument, and you will have a solid foundation in rhythmic music theory. In addition, we will orient the topics covered according to the musical direction you wish to follow, adapting it to your encountered difficulties.

Would you like to learn to play the trombone and have fun doing it? Do you already play the trombone but want to continue learning? I am a versatile trombonist who can adapt to your needs.

I have been teaching in music schools and privately for eight years. But not only with my instrument. I have also worked as a music theory teacher or as a conductor.

With my training in both classical and jazz music, we can not only learn different styles with the trombone, but also cover other subjects such as harmony, analysis or solfeggio.

I offer flexible lessons in which I adapt to your wishes and interests and we have fun with the music together.

The trial lesson is free!

Do not hesitate to contact me, we will have a great time!

My lessons focus on joy, practice, and understanding of the instrument as well as music in general. The theoretical aspect is obviously included, for all levels. It is for me elementary to bring a maximum of motivation to my students, to allow them to have fun with their knowledge and to be able to play with other musicians.

During the meetings we will work on three well distinguished areas: technique, improvisation and the interpretation of written pieces. In our first encounters, we will establish clear goals, such as securing a repertoire and/or developing specific skills. According to the each musician's needs and intentions, we will discuss topics of music theory, practice ear training and even compose new pieces.

Over the years, I have collected and created a broad variety of materials and exercises and am constantly gathering and tailoring new ones for the attendants. My approach goes beyond the limitations of musical styles. Whether its European Classical, mainstream Pop, Indie Rock, a Latin-American Folk genre or Jazz, all music can be well performed when it is adequately approached and researched.

Looking forward to meeting!

My focus is on the styles of rock/pop/jazz and improvisation. I would also be happy to delve into music theory and show you the basics (and beyond...) of harmony.

If you're not a grader, it doesn't matter! My first piano lessons were very note based and almost ruined my playing! I'm a firm believer that playing songs by ear from the start helps us absorb songs faster. Of course, the eyes also work and shape patterns, figures and tone sequences on the fretboard or. on the keyboard. Of course, I would also be happy to teach you how to read music.

I offer double bass lessons for all levels: beginners, amateurs, students, children and adults. Together we get to know the instrument step by step, we ensure the correct posture of the body as well as the approach to music theory and playing technique. I adapt to the needs, wishes and goals for each student.
For this, I like to teach with patience and kindness, in order to free my students from the pressure of error and to help them develop their own musical sense.
In general, I start a lesson with a few warm-up exercises (with or without an instrument), if possible in the form of a game and linked to the lesson material. Then I check the material the student has learned at home, correct it and improve their technique. Most of the time, I like to accompany the student on the double bass in order to improve his musicality and his listening skills. At the end of a lesson and if time permits, I like to improvise.
I want to pass on my knowledge to my students and discover the world of music with them in order to share with others the pleasure of making music.

Guitar and bass lessons I use the Suzuki or Yamaha method but I can adapt to what we have on hand.
I have 25 years learning and teaching. I have the mornings free and some afternoons it is also a matter of agreeing.
Sincerely

I am a Master's student in Music Education at the Hochschule der Künste Bern, majoring in jazz. I have been a member of many different musical groups, in several styles (jazz, reggae, rock, throat singing, etc.), and I compose for ensembles ranging from solo to big band.
I have been giving lessons for several years to students of all levels.

My classes are flexible and adaptable to the student's desires, abilities, and goals. We begin by defining them, then I propose different working methods that we then put into practice. We can cover the basics of the instrument as well as its history, a multitude of musical styles, music theory, pure technique, or discover innovative artists, depending on the student's preferences.

This course is aimed at beginner and intermediate students of classical violin, jazz and contemporary music.

For beginner students:
We cover technical elements such as violin and bow positioning and holding, bow movement, left-hand placement, scales, and positions. We also work on developing ear training and rhythm. We may also introduce basic music theory concepts, such as reading notes.
Finally, we work on learning pieces, according to the student's desires and musical styles.

For intermediate students, here are different approaches depending on their musical styles and desires.

For jazz and improvised music: scales or arpeggios that can be played on a given chord, modes and their use, rhythm, improvisation exercises, phrasing (swing, Latin, funk, etc.), learning jazz standards, how to amplify on stage, etc.

For classical music: scales and arpeggios, technical exercises for the left and right hand, how to put together a piece, musicality and interpretation.
