Before instrumental or vocal technique, the quality of listening, and the development of relative ear are the keys to being able to play music. Not moving your fingers mechanically on the instrument, but playing literally, having fun with the notes, rhythms and harmonies. During my years at the conservatory, as a child, I experienced this void of meaning that young students can feel in music theory classes. At the time I was a diligent student but quite mediocre in music theory. I simply didn't understand the method that was dictated to us in Musical Training class. This actually favors children with perfect pitch, and those who do not have it remain behind. What a pity ! But I was passionate and so I looked for other ways to develop my listening skills. I studied Indian music, I followed the teachings of American, German, Swiss teachers... And finally by practicing ancient music, I discovered ancient music theory. The latter is the one which provides the real bases from which all Western music arises. Counterpoint and harmony, everything became clearer to me.
Calm and patient by nature, I would be delighted to help you or your child to appreciate music theory thanks to a personalized creative and playful approach.

About Me

Having grown up in a family of artists, since I was very young, I have been passionate about music of all styles, all continents and all eras. Thanks to my saxophonist and composer father, I was able to develop free improvisation skills that you don't learn at the conservatory. So I was able to see the two "sides" of learning: the theoretical bases of the conservatory in classical guitar on the one hand, and the ability to improvise, to play with energy and groove within rock and funk groups, world music. In 2015, I discovered early music and developed a passion for the lute and the theorbo.
Currently graduated from the most prestigious school of early music: the Schola Cantorum in Basel (Switzerland) I am currently finishing my Masters in Versailles / Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. I play in the baroque music ensemble Il Groviglio with which we recorded two discs and performed twice live on France Musique (see links below). I also play in many baroque music ensembles in France, Italy and Switzerland.
Webcam lessons possible in the event of confinement, but I much prefer human contact without this mediation.

During a lesson I encourage the student to work on: posture, breathing and the position of the mouth (embouchure), helping the projection of sound; the development of the tone; i teach the student how to phrase and play a beautiful melody; techniques of improvisation; understanding harmony; having confidence in his/her playing skills; techniques of listening and interacting with the rhythm section; learning new songs and experiencing different styles of music; Introductions to key saxophonists. Above all i encourage my students to have fun with music! Course locations: Paris 13th and neighbouring arrondissements. Languages: French, English. I have been working as a Professional for 25 years, I have toured all over the world. I am also a composer with six albums under my name.

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. 😊

Are your shortcomings in note reading, rhythmic reading or deciphering preventing you from fully living your passion? Having trouble deciphering a score?
You are a beginner and you have neither the time nor the desire to study music theory and theory in depth, and you don't know where to start?
My classes are designed for you.

Even if you have no musical knowledge, you can learn and progress quickly thanks to a simple and effective method that will give you the practical tools to overcome your difficulties in a short time, so that you can concentrate on the essentials.

I adapt my work program according to your specialty (singer or musician) and your level, and I guide you step by step towards your individual objectives.

As a professional musician graduated from the CNSMD and an experienced teacher having collaborated for 8 years with the Opéra National de Paris, my lessons are specially designed for those who have no time to waste.

I teach in French, English and Spanish.

Learn to play; to decipher the 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.

Hello,

I like to transmit and exchange with my students.
Seeing them understand and progressing is essential and very rewarding for me.

My lessons are based on an academic method focused on learning music theory and instrumental practice.
I bring a specific method adapted to the profiles of my students (age, availability, tastes, motivation, "anti-music theory").
I try to make my students independent, help them develop their listening skills, their sense of rhythm and transmit to them an efficient working method.

All styles, all levels: pop, rock, funk, jazz, blues, soul, reggae, latin

I've been playing drums for 12 years,
Economic and social bachelor, then student at the IMEP, I now play in restaurants or weddings

The drums are a key instrument within a group, it is he who will allow to create a link between all.

My goal is simple, you have to take pleasure in playing, this will of course go through attendance, but also through moments of laughter, fun, exchange, communication ...
I would initiate you if you want to play percussion to test them to have fun.
I would try to teach you the styles that I know so that you can practice them, be it rock, funk, pop, soul, jazz, reggae, but also having fun with your instrument,
and why not make it your job ...

So when do we start?

I give you an appointment from Monday to Saturday

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,

- 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 private cello lessons, at your home or mine! I really like teaching, I have had cello students (music theory and tutoring as well) for 6 years and my contact with them is always very good. I am passionate about teaching, about how different personalities work and the issues specific to them and I am therefore always looking for new ways to teach them this beautiful instrument. I obtained my DEM (diploma of musical studies) in June 2024, which attests to my technical and musical level; this is why I am able to help students get started as well as help others who are already learning, up to the 3rd cycle of the conservatory for example. Contact me to find out more, especially about the price!

I am currently training at the conservatory, where I am working on composition, music theory and musical creation.

My background blends classical practice, contemporary music, and sound engineering. This diversity allows me to tailor lessons to each student, according to their desires, level, and sensibilities.

My approach to the piano is based on listening, the relationship to sound and musical expression. I am as interested in technique as I am in what it allows me to say and feel.

The courses are designed as a space for progressive learning, respectful of each individual's pace, particularly suited to adult beginners or those returning to the piano after a break.

I teach on acoustic or digital piano, and I adapt the content according to the musical tastes and objectives of the student.
