About Me

A passionate musician for over 30 years, I have explored guitar, piano and drums from an early age, developing a versatile playing style and instinctive approach to music.
I have always sung accompanying myself with the guitar and the piano.
Over time, improvisation on the guitar became my favorite playground and the central axis of my compositions.
My musical universe covers a wide spectrum of contemporary music: international song, pop, folk, groove, soul, jazz, rock, reggae, funk, blues and many more.

I have been teaching guitar in music schools for several years and have been giving private lessons for almost twenty years. At the same time, I have played in numerous groups with diverse styles and I compose my own music.

Today, I put my experience at the service of musicians and artists as a teacher, performer, composer and arranger, with both a pedagogical and artistic approach.

It will be a pleasure to share this passion with you.

Philippe

I work with a dynamic attitude, using ease to communicate in public, both live and by phone or virtually, I try to convey the illusion that Music gives me back. With versatility, I seek to establish ways to meet the needs of the student, thus perfecting my goals as a teacher. Delighted to learn and expand horizons with each experience.

In addition to teaching in general, the objective of the classes is personalized, it proposes to strengthen the natural abilities of the student, thus increasing his creative horizon, through a playful and fun system; learning, perfecting and playing.

My goal is to give enough tools to not need me or, in other words, use what I have learned to continue learning ...

I graduated with honors from the "Amadeo Roldán" Conservatory in Havana as a lute player, instrument teacher, and ensemble practice teacher. I also perform in the execution of the guitar, the piano and the Cuban tres, as well as group work.

This class is aimed at those who are interested in learning music, either theory or practice. This is a discipline that requires rigor and demand, something without which it would not proceed. The passion and love for this art will play a transcendental role in the assimilation of the contents and the importance that can be given to it.

I have been playing guitar for years and studying harmony and musical language. I have played in several groups of different styles: pop, rock, blues, jazz, soul, funk. I don't think that a gift is necessary to learn to play an instrument. The important thing is to practice and a teaching that enhances playfulness. You have to have fun with music, it shouldn't be an obligation. Each person has their own goals and their own path and I adapt to that. Eminently practical. Chords, fingerpicking, scales and modes, rhythms, theory and modern harmony, blues, rock, pop, funk, jazz, improvisation, music theory. Technique: fingers, pick, hybrid technique, legato.

Chamberí area. We can arrange a short online interview to check the student's level and set goals.

I can teach classes in English.
You can learn to play the guitar at any age and from any musical level.
If you feel stuck, I can help you get unstuck.

I have extensive professional experience on double bass and electric bass. In recent years, my focus has been and remains jazz, where I have participated in many concerts and recordings with my original music group and others, under different leaderships. If jazz is an area of interest for you, I can help you.

I studied at the Braga Jazz School, at the Luiz Villas Boas Jazz School at the Hot Clube de Portugal and at the Lisbon Higher School of Music.

I think that each person has his or her own way of learning, at his or her own pace, according to what motivates him or her in music. I myself had an irregular path, different from the typical musical training, so I see things from a different perspective.
My main instruments are the double bass and the electric bass, but I also play and can teach guitar, music theory, improvisation techniques and composition.

I'm Alberto, a guitar teacher with a degree from the Higher School of Modern Music in Zaragoza. I hold a degree in Musicology from the Complutense University of Madrid.
My adventure with music studies, and with the guitar in particular, began at the age of 8. Since then, I've never stopped learning and pursuing new goals and challenges. Since I was 12, I've played in bands of different genres: blues, rock, hard rock, heavy metal, pop, and indie, and I've gained a wealth of knowledge from all of them.

I adapt to the student's level: from beginner-basic to intermediate.
I offer both in-person classes at my home and at the student's home. I can also offer online classes (video calls) if preferred.

Hello, I'm Diego, a professional musician and guitar teacher. I have extensive experience teaching classes for people of all levels and ages, both individually and in groups. Over fifteen years of experience as a professional musician have led me to understand and appreciate a wide variety of styles. I have advanced musical training with an official degree (higher degree in jazz and contemporary music). I am a guitarist, both electric and acoustic, and an expert in styles such as country, blues, rock and roll, and soul.

I love teaching classes to all kinds of people who love music and are motivated to advance, starting from any level. If this is your first time with the instrument, I'd be happy to guide you through your first steps, giving you the essential guidelines that will guide you throughout your musical journey. If you already have some experience but want to take that leap forward, I'll give you the necessary tools to study the instrument in greater depth, as well as theoretical content and a varied repertoire. If you're an advanced student, already skilled in various styles and with some knowledge of scales, chords, techniques, and music theory, we'll face the challenge of reaching a higher level on the guitar together. Improvisation, voicings, advanced techniques, reading... the path is endless but exciting.

This is my cover letter in a nutshell: I love music, I love teaching music, I love talking about music, discovering music, and sharing music in a thousand different ways. Go ahead and learn to play the best instrument in the world: the guitar.
