Specialist blues and jazz, I also practice many styles such as folk, bossa nova, funk or rhythm'n'blues.

My classes adapt according to the musical tastes as well as the level of each student. I leave to the students the choice of the pieces they want to learn, as well as the support (sheet music, tablatures, orality).
Whatever the styles of music, several points seem to me essential to work:
- The Blues
I insist on blues learning which is the basis of most current styles (jazz, rock, funk, folk, etc.)
- The sound
With the multiple possibilities of choice of sound on an instrument like the guitar, the work on the sound is all the more indispensable. It must not be forgotten that sound is the first thing that comes to the ears of the listener. It reveals the personality of the musician: the great guitarists (Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Green Grant, Wes Montgomery, etc.) are identifiable from the first notes!
- Rhythm
Trying to acquire a solid rhythm to allow you to "groove" is essential in any kind of music. I propose several types of exercises to help solidify his "internal clock".
- Improvisation
The improvisation that allows to detach from the score and allow the student to bring his personal touch on a piece.

About Me
As a professional musician, it seems to me to share and transmit at the same time the experience gained through different schools (University of Toulouse, Montauban Conservatory, Didier Lockwood Music Center), as well as my experience of the scene with crucial meetings. for me (Philip Catherine, Raul de Souza, Dave Liebman or Didier Lockwood).
I am therefore very motivated to transmit knowledge but also to help students find their way.

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

I am a professional nylon string guitarist, classical, jazz, fusion, performer, composer and improviser.

I was trained at the CNR in Nice in classical guitar (by the duo Ako Ito and Henry Dorigny, for those who know), and in composition, harmony and instrumentation. I have a solid experience of teaching in institutions and independently, as well as studio and acoustic and electroacoustic recording techniques.

Children or adults, beginners or confirmed, my lessons adapt to the objectives of the student, for instrumental practice such as training and musical culture. We will define them together. I guarantee you rapid progress and a truly rewarding experience whatever your level. Classes take place in an artistically and intellectually stimulating atmosphere!

If you are a beginner, you will build on solid foundations and will not be limited in your future progress. For beginner children who wish to join a conservatory in classical guitar in the coming year or the following years, they will have the technical and musical level required.

If you are an already advanced guitarist, I can greatly help you to liberate your playing, to overcome any technical limitations that still hold you back. Many good guitarists are particularly limited by their right hand. Si-Si!... We will solve these problems in a few sessions. You will quickly gain in velocity, nuances, expressiveness. By the way, you will stop hurting yourself!

The goal is to make music! Together we will reveal your potential as a guitarist and musician, interpreter as an improviser. Because if you are passionate about improvised music as I am, your possibilities will quickly expand by exploring playing modes, special tunings, the fusion between contemporary, classical and jazz music.

Bass and guitar lessons for beginners: this course is aimed at all young musicians who dream of performing or those who want to learn the passion of the guitar or bass!

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).

CV:
- Holder of a DEM in Contemporary Music specializing in Electric Bass at the Paris Conservatory
- Graduated with a degree in musicology from the Sorbonne
- Graduated from a CEM in classical music theory at the 9th arrondissement conservatory
- Holder of a BAFA. Plus 5 years of experience as a teacher/facilitator in an association for younger students...
- 14 years of concert and recording experience in numerous projects (rock, stoner, pop, soul, funk, metal and in a classical orchestra)
- 2 years of Preparatory Cycle for Higher Education (CPES) in Contemporary Music at the CRR in Paris (specializing in Electric Bass)
- Currently at the Pôle Supérieur Paris-Boulogne-Billancourt in Amplified Contemporary Music (specializing in Electric Bass)
- Very solid technical and practical knowledge in MAO & Sound Mixing. If you have recording projects for yourself or your groups I can help you in this area.

Being bilingual, I can teach in English
Areas concerned: Paris & Maison Alfort
