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!

I am a trumpet player, holder of the DEM Jazz, I offer private lessons, for all ages and all levels.
My teaching will be primarily centered on the essential technical mastery of this instrument, (sound emission, articulation, accuracy...) which will allow you to play the music you love.
I can also teach improvisation and harmony, mainly in the context of Afro-American music.

Learn to play to decipher scores and improvise by ear or by reading and analyzing chord charts. This course will adapt to your level of play: simple harmonies for beginners and more complex depending on the degree of mastery of the instrument. This course also includes a thorough introduction to harmony.

With me, you can begin, develop, or even perfect your piano skills. I adapt to all levels, styles, and paces. Some students who have dedicated a significant amount of time to studying piano regularly have made tremendous progress in a short period.
For students wishing to prepare for the entrance exam to the conservatory, I can help you in the form of an intensive mini-course during the summer or before (piano leveling and/or music theory).

My teaching method is sensory-focused, emphasizing the development of movement in connection with musical feeling. I will help you "connect" with your instrument and unlock its full potential.
Also, I attach importance to understanding the pieces played. Understanding their structural, harmonic functioning is necessary and unfortunately little addressed in traditional courses.

My classes are deeply human. A relationship of trust is established from the very beginning of the lessons. In my opinion, this is the foundation of effective learning.

My students are very satisfied with my approach, and I would encourage you to try the experience too!

I teach at home (Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume), at the student's home, and also via videoconference in the rest of France and abroad.
For this last option, if you are not equipped, I will help you with your first steps.
I offer hybrid formats for certain locations (online courses + some occasional in-person courses).

CESU option

Do not hesitate to contact me.
The pleasure of working with you !

Hello
I am a jazz guitarist and I give guitar lessons for all levels at home (from 13 years old). I live in Porte de Bagnolet, but I can travel throughout Paris.
I play regularly in big clubs like the Duc des Lombards and the Sunset, but also I have toured the United States and played in the legendary “Jazz at Licoln Center” and other important places like the Spectrum theater in Washington DC

I worked in a Big Band for 4 years, so deciphering is one of my strong points, if you are interested, I use a very simple reading method that gives magnificent results.

Now I am a student at the CRR in Paris and I give private lessons for my support and also for my musical projects..
My method changes depending on the needs of the student if you want to deepen your knowledge of harmony and musical theory to use it on the instrument, if you want to improve your technique, if it is just to learn songs and have fun , if you want to know the differences of each style, I will help you to have a clearer awareness in music and this will strengthen your abilities in interpretation, improvisation and composition, whatever the style.

I will be happy to tell you more by messages on this site if you want to know more.

I give jazz / blues / funk / pop piano lessons for pianists who already have a basic technical background, and piano lessons for beginner pianists.
I specialize in teaching jazz and improvised music but open to all types of music. We decide together on the repertoire. My method is adapted to each (e) and respects the rhythm of the student, including the notions of music theory and harmony necessary for his level.
Our lessons will take place at Rue de Poitou Paris

Hello, welcome to my ad!

My name is Matéo and I am 26 years old. I have been playing guitar for 9 years and teaching it for 5 years. After studying at the conservatory and music school, I obtained my Diploma of Musical Studies (DEM) specializing in jazz guitar. Over the years, I have been able to accompany around forty students, both in private lessons, group lessons and at the conservatory where I teach today.

OPTION1) The course I offer is aimed at beginner to intermediate level guitarists, of all ages (children too!), in acoustic and electric guitar.
My goal is to give you the essential basics of the instrument (body position, technique, chords) as well as an understanding of fundamental musical concepts (rhythm, ear, reading tablature and/or music theory) which will be very useful to you as a musician.
We will base our learning as quickly as possible on real pieces of music, if possible suggested by the student because I think that learning by playing the music you like is the most motivating method.
As a teacher, I have always adapted as best I could to each profile to make them learn in the way that suited them best, make them play the music they like, help them with their difficulties and push them to surpass themselves in their abilities.
Finally, I always make sure that the lessons take place in a calm and pleasant atmosphere so that the student progresses at their own pace and learns while having fun.

OPTION 2) This course is for intermediate to advanced guitarists (and musicians in general) who want to acquire a deeper understanding of music theory. What we can cover, depending on your needs: analysis, harmony, composition, transcription, improvisation, music theory, ...

Lessons can take place at my home, in the 15th arrondissement, or at the student's home where I can travel (for an extra) within a reasonable radius.

Declared via CESU (Universal Employment Service Check) or self-employed invoice.

I graduated from the CNSMDP (National Conservatory of Music and Dance in Paris) in Saxophone Jazz (Master).
I teach saxophone for all types of levels and styles. I like to approach learning this instrument through oral transmission rather than through methods or scores. This is how I learned music and jazz in particular. (I also oriented my dissertation around solo recording and learning through imitation.) However, I read music very well and can work with scores if the student prefers to work that way, or if the style of music requires sheet music.

Maarten will teach you about general music theory and analysis from beginner to advanced level. He is experienced to teach highest level classical musicians and Jazz musicians too. He can work with you about the harmony and analysis of compositions on practical ways affected to your own performance as well. so not only on the desk, but on the instrument in order to improve your knowledge and performance level.
He has many knowledge of all kinds of music analysis and compositions, the lessons can be mix with online and class room.

Genres taught: Pop, Folk, Jazz, Singer-songwriter, Funk, Blues, Rock

The courses are aimed at all levels and are adapted to the wishes of the student. My goal is that everyone can get what they want from the lessons, and if that changes, the teaching style will change too. I still believe that a basic understanding of theory (scales, harmony, etc.) will help you a lot moving forward in whatever you want to do.

Teaching languages: French, Greek, English and Italian
