Electronic music, perhaps with its interdisciplinary nature, is a vast field to get into, a world of creativity and art, science and technology, and philosophy and thoughts. The course of electroacoustic composition (in other words computer-assisted composition) follows the interdisciplinary fundamentals of the topic. During these courses, we will speak and work on electronic music aesthetics and musical discourses, form and structure, and indeed the utils of using software such as Ableton, Max, Supercollider, VCV RACK, reaper et cetera, to be able to materialize the musical idea with electronic tools. Students can create and compose electronic music, sound designs, multimedia art (music and ... ), installations and performances, etc during and after the courses.

Former student of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris, editor-in-chief of the magazine Avant-Scène Opéra, editor for the Philharmonie du Luxembourg, I offer you the following lessons. Music theory and musical culture are essential tools for understanding and making music. Music theory, because it allows you to master the technical tools that allow you to make music, is fundamental for anyone who wants to progress in their instrument. Musical culture makes it possible to understand what goes on in music beyond the technique. From this knowledge (established over a lot of listening) we can develop an interpretation and go beyond technical issues. For music theory lessons only, I constantly articulate the different musical parameters (rhythm, intonation, ear, etc.) and draw my training from the repertoire, which has the advantage of making music from the start. Small technical exercises also allow you to focus on one or the other parameter, but the perspective remains mainly that of a global approach placing the music at the center. As far as musical culture is concerned, I use each of my professional experiences (Musicologist, playwright and music critic) to transmit my knowledge to you. Thus we will approach the history of music through works (history of forms and languages), interpretation and places of music. It is mainly through the study of documents (texts of musical criticism, iconography, scores, musical instruments...) that transmission takes place. Knowledge completes and informs this documentary study. Finally the study of document and the erudition have only one goal: to enlighten the listening of the works which I place at the heart of my teaching.

I have over 10 years of teaching experience, both privately and in schools, catering to students of all ages, from children to adults. As a friendly and enthusiastic instructor, my goal is to ensure that every student finds joy in creating music and can work towards their personal goals—whether it's for the sheer enjoyment of music-making or to prepare for music exams. I'm also proficient in teaching music theory, which not only enhances musicianship but is also essential for students aspiring to reach higher levels in their musical journey. I hold a Bachelor of Music and a Master's degree from two prestigious London music institutions: the Royal College of Music and the Royal Academy of Music. Since then, I've been actively performing as a soloist and collaborating with various orchestras and ensembles worldwide.

Methodology : I use Mathieu Crickboom's Violin method with which I started the violin myself, in addition I use duets as well as studies and concertos that I propose according to the level and desires of the student, it will also be possible that the pieces practiced come from you, which I will enhance with a technical and musical framework. For the very young, I use an appropriate violin method, color games and a fun approach to reading notes allowing you to learn the basics of music without knowledge of mathematics or reading French. I rely on the advice and knowledge that I have developed during my progression with the Professors, Instrumental Groups and Public Figures that I have frequented as well as on my interest in pedagogy and my monitoring of Master Classes on other students and myself to best promote the progress of each one. During my Master's in Didactics, completed with Great Distinction in Namur, Belgium, I considered an approach to the psychology and sociology of learning the violin. This approach is as much in the search for the aesthetics of sound and the work of the ear as in the proprioception and the harmonious bodily feeling necessary for the practice of the violin. The search for playfulness and the pleasure of discovery takes an important aspect in my pedagogy and influences my methodological approach. Progress will be made at each person's pace, and with as much playfulness as possible. My teaching experience: I have been giving private tutoring since around 2016, all ages and levels (from 5 to 60, from beginner to advanced level).

I taught in an ASBL (independent conservatory) in Belgium for a few months, and completed 90 hours of supervised teaching internships as part of the Master's in Didactics. I am currently a teacher in a private music school in Raincy and Drancy. My professional experience is rich in the study of the great concertos of the repertoire, as well as a significant Chamber Music repertoire. I was called to the podium of the Royal Opera of Liège in 'I Lombardi' and 'Falstaff' by Verdi as well as at the Soirées Lyriques de Sanxay in 'La Bohème' by Puccini in 2023-2024. I currently hold a Master's in Instrumental Studies validated with Distinction in 2023 and a Master's in Didactics/Pedagogy validated in 2024 with Great Distinction in the class of Julien Eberhardt, soloist of the Liège Opera as well as Gilles Millet, of the Danel Quartet and Jean-Baptiste Fonlupt, internationally renowned pianist. - Holder of a Master's degree in Didactics/Pedagogy specializing in violin at IMEP in Namur in 2024 - Holder of a Master's degree in Instrumental violin specialization at IMEP in Namur in 2023 - Finalist at the Festivals de Wallonie at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Charleroi in 2021, Trio with Piano and Cello. - Former student at the Pôle Supérieur de Paris-Boulogne (PSPBB) in a dual-course Violin/Musicology degree in conjunction with the Sorbonne. - 1st Prize at the Hong Kong International Music Competition in 2018, Solo Violin, Mendelssohn Concerto. - Holder of a DEM (Diploma of Musical Studies) in Violin at the CRR d'Aubervilliers in 2016. - DEM Cycle of Musical Training at the CRR in Paris followed from 2014 to 2017 (Improvement of theoretical mastery).
