    About Me

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    Andreas grew up at the largest canal junction in Europe, between former coal heaps, power station towers and industrial ruins. At an early age he felt strongly drawn to music, began to learn the guitar and quickly realized that something was missing. Where is this groove, this deep, organic hum that he feels inside?

    He realizes that the bass offers him precisely these missing elements. The end of the search for the right instrument is at the same time the beginning of a new, much deeper journey:
    the perfect tone, your own musical language and personal development - for Andreas these things have been inextricably linked ever since.

    He begins studying at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, where he is taught by John Goldsby, Dieter Manderscheid and Robert Landfermann, who describes himself as a traditionalist in musical terms Modern. Because, modernity without tradition? Jazz without a story? It would be like the Ruhr area without collieries, New York without jazz and Andreas without a double bass. It just doesn't work.

    During his studies there are always new opportunities to test the limits of his instrument. He becomes an integral part of the federal jazz orchestra, writes for his own trio, goes on tour with pop bands and plays on every stage that can withstand the weight of him and his double bass. The encounters with musicians from different genres are a new challenge, let him work on his game and open up new perspectives for him. It is only logical that it is precisely these new perspectives that open up his latest field of research for him. What would music be without Mozart, Brahms or Beethoven? And what would the restless one be without taking on the task of researching the precision and sound aesthetics of the classical period?

    But what remains forever is jazz - whether as a technical research field, explosive experimental area or philosophical treatise. The best thing about this, he says, is that everyone can be who they are and what they want to be. It all depends on moving forward and finding your own, very personal language.

    Learn Piano and Music Theory with a CREATIVE APPROACH - Jazz, Classical, Pop, Rock...
    Hey there! Do you want to start a new hobby? Do you already play the piano and you want to improve your skills with a creative approach to the instrument? Then I think I can help you! I can teach you basic and advanced concepts of any style on the piano (classical, jazz, pop-rock...), and if you like improvisation and jazz then we get along even better! I offer very personalized classes based on your level and interests. My approach to teaching strongly takes the student's CREATIVITY into account, but without forgetting that a good knowledge of MUSIC THEORY and PIANO TECHNIQUE are essential. Constant practice is recommended for better results, although it is not strictly required.

    The trumpet, learn to play it by making music from the first class.
    The trumpet: its correct technical execution and the interpretation of popular and academic universal repertoires, is available to everyone regardless of their age. We will build a logical sequence of studies that will help develop the technical aspects. And we will address repertoires according to the age and taste of the student. we will draw a path with short, medium and long term goals. we will build a technical routine and healthy habits to progress correctly. In addition, we will select musical pieces by mutual agreement to mature the technical development hand in hand with musical growth. I am a professional trumpeter, I have participated in symphony orchestras, wind bands, big band, and small chamber and jazz ensembles. I have extensive experience teaching children, youth and adults. For me it is very important to make music from the first lesson, because there must be a balance between technical practice and its application in small melodies or musical pieces. No matter the musical genre, we will always find a repertoire according to the level and interest of each student. If you already know how to play and you need to perfect a piece or prepare a recital or audition, you can count on my experience and accompaniment as well.

    Master the Score: Elevate Your Music Theory Skills with Online Lessons by Martin Levallois
    I'm Martin! I've studied Guitar Performance major at Berklee College of Music. I have previously taught students ranging from children to elders, in various guitar styles including jazz, rock and pop. I worked as a Core Music Tutor at Berklee College of Music, where I provided individual, hourly tutoring sessions. During the class time I assisted the students in completing coursework and projects in subjects like Fundamentals of Ear Training, Music Fundamentals, Music Application and Theory, Harmony 2-4, Ear Training 1-4, Solfege 1-2, Arranging 1-2, Tonal Harmony and Composition 1-2, Art of Counterpoint, and Conducting 1. During this job I got certified by the College Reading and Learning Association through trainings offered in the program. I would describe my teaching philosophy as organic and holistic. I believe that with unlimited content at their fingertips, people today tend to be overwhelmed by the amount of information, whereas I consider it should be a mix between knowledge and perceptual approach. I understand the student needs its own time to digest knowledge and incorporate it.

    Improvisation for beginners and intermediates (any instrument)
    For many people improvisation is a scary word and having to improvise in a group or band is an alarming prospect. However, this really does not need to be the case. As long as you have a basic knowledge of how to play your instrument you will be able to improvise. Once you know the principle of how chords are formed you will soon be improvising with ease. If you play a keyboard instrument you will be able to improvise your own pieces and be able to entertain your friends at a moments notice. On the other hand if you play in a band or a group you will be well equipped to do a real 'jam' session. Whether you play a single line instrument (flute, saxophone, trumpet, violin etc.) or keyboard instruments, this class is for you.

    Yolitzin Alhelí
    Piano classes with a teacher with a specialty in pedagogy
    My name is Yolitzin, and I have 11 years of experience teaching the instrument. The classes are dynamic and I try to nurture technique, theory, reading notes and mainly the love of music and the pleasure of playing the piano. If you are an adult, I will try to go at your pace according to your study times. If the classes are for children, we will try to encourage the habit of study so that the child grows with the discipline of practice and in a short time can successfully play their favorite pieces of music. The teaching approach consists of the student building their learning based on the experiences they obtain from classes and practice at home. I studied a second career focused on pedagogy, and currently I have a piano studio of more than 20 students who share a love for music and the piano. I organize recitals twice a year to encourage a complete artistic training. You will surely have a lot of fun!
