While creating a repertoire, we will work the ear, rhythm, technique.
I focus on practice, improvisation, and the relationship between you and your instrument in order to have fun on your bass.

Okay, but what are we doing?

The basics:

- the silence
- harmony (scales, chords, intervals)
- rhythm (binary, ternary, swing, shuffle)
- the sound (technique, nuance)
- the coding of the English chords (A = la, E- = E minor, etc.)
- the musical culture and the different ways of listening to music

A choice:

- improvisation (learning to play without partition, becoming able to play with anyone, anytime)
- group music in general (the modern bass, the different roles of the instruments in a group)
- jazz (standards, swing, notions of harmonies and improvisation)
- rock, funk (notions of groove, rhythmic placement, search for sounds, pentatonic scales)
- music games for children

The instrument remains a tool to make music, so we will work to become a MUSICIAN (with the help of a bass guitar).

Any age, any level (to be evaluated during the first class)

I preferably receive at home, or at least near my home (Paris EST). Having a busy musical life moves are to be avoided as far as possible.

Do not hesitate to contact me for further information!

Additional Information:

It is important for your teacher to match you musically (unless otherwise, if you want to fill in gaps, or discover a new genre). That's why I present myself in a few lines, so that you get an idea of the kind of bassist that I am:
I started bass more than ten years ago, I first discovered the instrument alone (self-taught training).
I later played in several Rock formations. Rock I was interested in Funk (style in which the bass plays a key role). I then became more and more interested in improvisation and therefore Jazz music. I took two years of classes at the Conservatoire du 9ème arrondissement in Paris before joining the IMEP (formerly American School of Modern Music). Currently, I play in several bands: a jazz / funk band and a jazz / rock band.

My influences (in bulk): Jaco Pastorius, Weather Report Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, George Duke, Miles Davis, Funkadelic / Parliament, James Brown, Prince, George Benson, John Scofield, Hendrix, Zappa, Stanley Clarke, Al di meola, Paco de lucia, Bob marley, Marcus Miller, Kenny Garett, Bill Evans, Lettuce, Brecker Brothers, Return to Forever, Mahavishnu, Led Zep, Dire Straits, Rolling Stones, The Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Munir Hossn, Matthew Garrisson , Hadrien Feraud, Ron Carter, Linley Martha, Maceo Parker, Paul Chambers, Mike Stern, Bob Berg and many more!

Hi,

Professional bassist graduated from the conservatory (DEM current music) and the CIM in jazz I have been giving bass lessons in groove and good humor for 5 years.

Passionate, dynamic and patient, I am committed to transmitting the beauty of our instrument to you!

The main objective of the course is to progress and have fun playing songs of your choice.

While adapting to your desires, the course is usually structured in 3 stages:

- A first part on the rhythm with the instrument.
- One second on the fundamentals: right hand / left hand technique, dexterity, finger play / pick, slap.
- The third focuses on one track: rock, jazz, funk, pop, metal, anything goes!
I teach theory and harmony through the pieces played

I can travel or teach at my home in Villejuif or in a studio in the 13th arrondissement

Let's groove!

I offer private lessons of classical double bass and jazz as well as electric bass and guitar lessons on all styles of music for children and adults of all ages and all levels. My priority is that everyone takes pleasure in playing while progressing. My teaching is based on personalized musical follow-up: Discovery, Leisure, Methodical learning and Improvement. The repertoire will be chosen according to the desires of each student.

I am convinced that the theoretical fundamentals, remain essential to be accomplished as a musician. However, it remains obvious to me that the practice of the instrument goes hand in hand with a more theoretical teaching. It is for this reason that my students touch the instrument from the first lesson.

My teaching allows to acquire the musical fundamentals while having fun, without demotivation.

As a former professional bass player who accompanied various groups around the world (Louisiana Red, Champion Jack Dupree, John Thomas, Francisco Zumaque, Lou Blackburn, among others), I offer private jazz bass and double bass lessons.

With nearly twenty years of experience in the music industry, I specialized in teaching music, particularly in the fields of jazz, blues and improvised music. I adopt a natural method of learning music that emphasizes listening and playing. Gradually, we introduce the reading of notes according to the rhythm of each student.

Thanks to this approach, students are able to play from the first lesson. The last part of each session is devoted to practice through group play sessions (piano, double bass, drums).

Classes take place in our private room located at Porte d'Orléans. In addition to individual lessons, we offer ensemble lessons for interested students, as well as the possibility of participating in our choir.

Do not hesitate to contact me for more information. I look forward to sharing the music with you.

I adapt to everyone's desires and favorite styles, whether it's Hip-hop, Jazz, Blues, Pop, City Pop, Rock, Punk, Funk, Metal, World, etc. . My goal is above all to accompany you in your musical adventure. Also I can help you prepare for auditions (for a group or a music school), improve your phrasing, develop your game or simply teach you your favorite songs.

Classes can take place at my home, yours or via Skype. I offer lessons of 1h, 1h30 and 2 hours according to needs and desires.

Having several basses (4 strings, 5 strings, acoustic, fretless) I gladly lend an instrument to students who come to my home, which can be practical if the lesson takes place after work or study hours. For lessons at home, I bring an ABY pedal that allows two people to play on the same amp, making the lesson more practical and more fun!

Thank you for reading this announcement and have a nice day,

For me, music is above all a passion. We will therefore work primarily on the pieces you wish to learn, whatever your preferred style (rock, pop, reggae, funk, metal, etc.).
We will still see some new things from time to time because it is both important and nice to open up to new things to progress ;-)

Depending on your goals, you can approach music with or without music theory (not at all mandatory to make music and achieve a good level on the instrument).

My name is Axel, I have been a passionate guitarist for over 8 years.
Over the years, I have had the chance to participate in numerous musical projects which have allowed me to explore varied styles and develop solid stage and artistic experience.

I regularly perform live with my bands, and I record and compose for my own projects as well as for other artists. I recently started accompanying a French pop artist on tour throughout France, which gave me the opportunity to play in some great venues, including La Cigale in Paris.

At the same time, I am passionate about teaching guitar. I have worked for various home tutoring organizations (Lucadom, Wiplay, Playnotes, Allegro Musique, etc.) as well as Musique et Compagnie, the largest private physical music school in France, with over 1,300 students.

My lessons are tailored and personalized to each student based on your tastes and expectations. I go through learning pieces to learn or develop specific techniques and to acquire a solid musical repertoire that will be based on your tastes without having to learn music theory first.
