These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards).

Piano, guitar and theory of music lessons for beginners and intermediate playersAs a Master’s student in medical biology, I have been playing piano and guitar for 18 years. I can explain to you the musical theory that allows you to understand a piece on which you want to improvise or to understand the idea behind the composition of a piece. I can find you the chords of any song or piece and I have examples of songs whose chords search is particularly interesting. I can teach you classical music and jazz.
I use a piano that provides an automated and complete accompaniment, that is to say that we can play as with a band with a drummer and musicians of any style. This is very convenient.
I also have recordings of impro funk or hip-hop patterns that are what you might call "fire" to learn to improvise with pleasure.
I took classes at the school of jazz and current music for about ten years and had some bands, concerts and jams at the university. I was also a member of the Lausanne University Choir.
For many years, I made self-taught classical music in parallel with jazz lessons.
Vincent
Intensive music theory lessons (rhythms in reading and dictation, reading of keys)Music theory lessons, for children (from 9 years old) and adults.
Passionate about music theory and music theory, I would be happy to share with you my enthusiasm for music theory, so unfairly devalued, due to the sometimes brutal methods with which it is taught.
In the program :
- reading notes (treble clefs, C clefs, F clefs)
- reading rhythms (quarter notes, eighth notes, double / triple / quadruple eighth notes, triplets and other dotted notes)
- dictation of notes (training your ear takes time, but when the exercises are "tailor-made" and progressive, you progress faster)
- dictation of rhythms
Do not hesitate to tell me the context of your request (competition preparation, repurposing of instruments, exams, etc.).
The course durations offered are deliberately short to encourage maximum concentration.
It will be essential to prepare the exercises offered between classes, to progress in a way that gives you satisfaction and nourishes your motivation.
Classes available in English as well.
