DRUM LESSONS AND RHYTHMIC TRAINING FROM A PROFESSIONAL DRUMMER
I'm looking forward to working with you on getting your drumming to the next level.
Drum lessons from a full time professional touring drummer (since 1987).
I have been playing with many Jazz-Rock-World artists such as: Chick Corea, John Abercrombie, Jacob Collier, Dave Holland, Jeff Berlin, Larry Corryell, Wilko Johnson, Norman Wat-Roy, and many more. I'm also a composer and band leader since 1997 and been touring around the world in many of the main jazz and world festivals.
I like to tailor my teaching to the students level and needs but mostly focused on these areas:
1. Basic hand and feet technique
2. Jazz playing
3. Improvisation around the drums
4. Rhythmic training (with the art of the south indian vocal percussion - Konnakol)
5. Keeping motivated & inspired in the new world of social media

Let's talk about music! Musical language, harmony, composition, various analyses, music in its sociocultural context or commented readingsHello! I've been teaching nonstop for over 10 years, and I'd love to tell you what a class with me offers:
100% personalized approach: The first step is to define your goals. Learning for pleasure? Preparing for entrance exams? Or taking the professional leap? I'll adapt the methodology, curriculum, and even the repertoire to your goals.
Dynamic environment (without losing rigor): Relaxed but demanding classes, where practical methods (and my irremediable sense of humor) prevail.
Hearing + Musicality + Analysis: We'll work on listening, understanding, and analyzing your musical references. The goal: for you to make artistic decisions with confidence and feel music as your own.
No stylistic biases: For me, all music is valid. We'll explore everything from classical to electronic, using each style to work on key aspects: melody, harmony, production... We'll even explore genres you're unfamiliar with together!
Important! I balance classes with concerts and projects. Although you're my priority, I appreciate the occasional flexibility to reschedule (only when strictly necessary).
If you like this approach, write to me! Learning music is an exciting journey, and I'd love to be your guide.

(LIVE or ONLINE!) Piano, improvisation, composition and music theory lessonsI am a Spanish pianist and composer (MMus graduate from Codarts Rotterdam in both directions) with many years of teaching experience, and also very active in performing in various contexts.
I give private piano lessons for all levels and styles (classical, jazz, Latin, new age, pop...), as well as music theory, composition and improvisation lessons. My lessons are distinguished by their dynamics, practical approach and adaptation to the needs and interests of the student.
The lessons (live or online) take place in my studio next to the Maastunnel, where I have a premium stage piano and a top-quality webcam setup.
I speak Dutch at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.

Electronic Music Production – Ableton Live, Synthesis, Sound Design, Composition, Mixing, Mastering, and Live PerformanceHi, my name is Jim.
I'm an electronic music producer with a Master’s degree in Music from the Fontys Academy of Arts (Rockacademie) in Tilburg, Netherlands. For me, making music is about building the skills and mindset to bring creative ideas to life and I’m passionate about helping others do the same.
As Malvae, I have written, sung, produced, mixed, and performed my own music, reaching #17 in the Spotify Viral 50 charts in the USA, gathering millions of streams, and featuring in films like the upcoming documentary King of the Streets and a Netflix series.
One of the highlights of my artistic journey was the Amazonas Project, where I traveled deep into the Amazon rainforest to record and transform natural sounds into a full-length concept album, blending storytelling, sound design, and music into a single experience. I had the honour of headlining my own show at Melkweg Amsterdam, one of the Netherlands' most iconic venues, and curated my own events while performing immersive, self-built live sets with visuals. I’ve also taught technical music skills at professional facilities such as Wisseloord Studios in Hilversum.
Music has taken me to places I never imagined, from the Amazon rainforest to some of the most iconic stages and I'm excited to help you build your own creative path. In my lessons, I offer structured, personalised education in music production, composition, sound design, mixing, mastering, and live performance.
Areas we can explore together include:
- Developing advanced music production workflows and creative problem-solving techniques
- Composition, arrangement, and innovative sound design
- Professional recording techniques, mixing, and mastering fundamentals
- Synthesis and sampling techniques, from basics to complex sound design
- Live performance design using Ableton Live, with optional visual integration via Resolume
- Applying music theory practically within electronic, experimental, and contemporary music contexts
Lessons are tailored to your individual goals and are available both online and in-person at my studio in Amsterdam. For online students, I use specialised tools that allow us to collaborate in real-time with HD audio quality.
My own musical path often started by recording sounds from my travels around the world and blending them with synthesizers and my voice. I found my unique sound this way, and I’m excited to help you find yours.
(And don’t worry, we won’t have to go to the ends of the earth to find it. I’ll show you how to transform the sounds you already have into something extraordinary.)
Whether you are just beginning your musical journey or looking to refine and deepen your craft, I look forward to working with you and helping you grow through structured, creative, and personalised electronic music education.

I am an electronic music producer based in Eindhoven, in the Netherlands and I would love to teach you how to get started as a producer, songwriter, or further improve in your skills in these areas.

Whether you want to learn production techniques, sharpen your composition skills, or learn to write lyrics that speak to you as an artist, I’ll provide you with the tools and guidance to make it happen. In this class, I mainly work with Ableton Live. What I teach in this class is applicable to any other program you use, so don't worry if you don't use Ableton!

In terms of production styles I mainly work with pop and electronic music
If you're passionate about exploring new ideas, discovering what makes your sound truly unique, and learning to develop that sound further, I’d love to work with you! To this end, I only need to know what you would like to learn, what your current level is, how much you already know about music (in general), and any other information you would like to mention. Let's create something amazing together!

Music lessons (Guitar, Theory, Composition, Ear training, Improvisation, and more)Hello all, I am Rotem (24), I am a guitarist and a composer, and currently pursuing my master's in music composition and theory in ZHdK.

Learn Piano and Improvisation and practice other languages :)The most important matter that I could write here about is my passion to teach. I've been teaching already for more than 10 years, from kids to adults. I'm a classical pianist, but I am opened to other musical styles. What I want you to get from your lessons with me, is not only a huge knowledge of theorical stuff or a great technique, I would like to show you my musical world, the imagination and inner exploration that is required to understand and to love music in a whole new level. Once you have found them, it will be very hard to quit playing!
The class duration: You can choose!
20 minutes (Great for the youngest : 3 years old)
30 minutes (Ideal for young beginners from 4 years old)
45 minutes (Intermediate+ adult beginners)
1 hour (Intermediate and combined with some Music Theory)
I use different methods depending on:
1) The goals of my student
2) The language that we will use on class
3) Age and musical preferences: I start to teach children from 3 years old, we make games and they learn to play through musical stories that I have created throughout my pedagogical career.
