As a pianist, I trained at the École Normale de Musique de Paris in the class of Pierre Etcheverry and in private lessons with Jacques Rouvier. I also worked as an assistant director of a conservatory (CRC) in the Paris region. I am a graduate and have won several competitions: Madeleine de Valmalète (2nd prize, two consecutive years), Musica (1st prize unanimously, with congratulations, two consecutive years).

Committed to sharing my expertise and, above all, my passion for music, I have been giving lessons for over 15 years. Whatever your starting level, your motivation and love of music will allow you to progress very quickly.

Looking forward to meeting you for some great musical moments together :)

About Me
A pianist who graduated from the École Normale de Musique in Paris, I also had the chance to take private lessons with Jacques Rouvier (professor at the CNSM in Paris).

I have been teaching piano lessons for over 10 years, for both children and adults, from beginner to advanced level. I started teaching at the age of 18, out of a passion for musical sharing and the pleasure of passing on my knowledge.
Over the years, I have taught in associations, given private lessons, and served as co-director of a conservatory. These experiences have allowed me to develop an approach tailored to each student, whether they wish to discover the instrument, progress technically, or deepen their interpretation.

✨ My approach:
• Tailor-made teaching, adapted to the age, level and desires of the student, while remaining ambitious;
• The emphasis is obviously placed on the pleasure of playing, the discovery of the classical repertoire (with openness to other styles according to tastes), and the search for autonomy in order to quickly offer pianistic freedom to the student.

My goal is simple: to make you love the piano and give you the means to progress, at your own pace, while keeping pleasure and patience at the heart of learning.
Education
I trained in piano and chamber music at the Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris in the class of Pierre Etcheverry (piano) in the teaching cycle.
I also studied at the University of Paris Panthéon-Assas where I obtained a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in public law.
Experience / Qualifications
I have been giving piano lessons since I was 18 (more than 10 years) in associations and in private. I was also co-director of a conservatory (CRC) of around forty teachers and around 700 students in the Paris region for a little less than two years.

Daniel
Pianist for over 12 years, I help beginner and intermediate students to progress on the piano and enjoy playing their favorite pieces.

. Music styles:

- Pop/contemporary music (Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Imagine Dragons, Yiruma, Yann Tiersen, Ludovico Einaudi, etc.)
- Classical music (Bach, Chopin, Beethoven, etc.)
- Film music (La La Land, Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, etc.)
- French pop music (Francis Cabrel, Jean-Jacque Goldman, etc.)

. My teaching method:

- Beginner level: my work is based on the book "J'apprends le piano tout simplement" by Christophe Astié, a simple and progressive method for learning the basics of piano (reading sheet music, music theory, playing with two hands, chords, etc.). Once some basic skills have been acquired, we can begin to learn the pieces you wish for.

- Intermediate level: Instruction is personalized based on the pieces you wish to learn. I will guide you through reading sheet music, interpreting the piece, and improving your technique, while providing you with tailored theoretical knowledge. The goal is to enable you to play your favorite pieces with fluidity and confidence.

. Location: At home (Antony and surrounding areas - Nanterre and surrounding areas)

. Limited availability:
I still have a few slots available for Saturday afternoons and Sundays.

To book lessons, please contact me by message on this platform.
See you soon at the piano!

- My students' opinions - (translated in English)

"My daughter Louane (10 years old) has been taking piano lessons with Daniel for 8 months now, and the progress she's made is incredible. She really enjoys playing, and it shows in her motivation and consistency. What we particularly appreciate is Daniel's gentleness and kindness, as well as his teaching style, which is very child-friendly.
Louane can choose the pieces she likes, which makes her even more involved, and music theory is naturally integrated into the learning process. It's an approach that's both fun and effective. Thank you for your patience and your infectious passion!" - Nathalie C.

"Excellent teacher, excellent teaching style! My son has progressed much more this year than in previous years. Daniel is patient and adapts to his student's needs. I recommend him 100%." - François M.

"After playing the piano for 4 years and then stopping for 21, I decided to take piano lessons with Daniel since August 2024. I quickly noticed progress and I recommend him for his professionalism, kindness, and friendliness.
I also appreciate being able to choose the pieces I want to learn." - Marjolaine.
