In this violin course you will learn a foundation in learning one of the most rewarding instruments in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Grip the bow, hold the violin, have the perfect hand position and enjoy playing the strings while learning how to read the notes, the violin rhythm and technique.

Students will generally learn better if they feel a connection developing with their teacher, whether that’s through humour, showing care about their development, or making sure teacher devote time equally to all students when in a group.

You will not regret. 😊

I can teach in English or French and of course in my mother tongue Albanian.

Graduated from the American School of Modern Music, I offer bass lessons for beginners, intermediate or advanced levels looking for ways to work. 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,

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.

- 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.

I offer music lessons for children focused on four main areas: music theory, singing, cello, and rhythm. My approach is playful, caring, and adapted to each child's age and pace.

Through music theory, I help children develop their musical ear, read and understand sheet music in a lively and interactive way. In singing, we explore the voice with gentleness and freedom, working on breathing, expression, and the joy of singing together. Cello lessons are designed to introduce young children to the technique of the instrument, while maintaining an element of play and sensory discovery. Finally, rhythm workshops allow children to move, strike, feel the tempo, and play with rhythm through their body and percussion.

Above all, I seek to transmit a love of music and to offer a space for listening, expression and trust.
Each lesson is a little musical journey, where the child learns while having fun.

Each course is structured in three parts:

1. Physical and vocal warm-up
Body relaxation, diaphragm placement, breathing exercises, posture and grounding, to prepare the voice and avoid any tension.

2. Vocal Technique
Exercises adapted to the student's level: breath control, voice placement, accuracy, articulation, resonance, power without straining.

3. Application to a piece
Putting the technique into practice on a song chosen by the student (or suggested) to work on interpretation and enjoy singing.

The styles are open: pop, variety, French chanson, lyrical... according to desires.

In addition, I offer the basics of music theory and piano for students who wish to learn to read sheet music or accompany themselves while singing.
