Piano, music theory, improvisation, composition and synthesizer

From 68 £ /h

I have a long history of studying at conservatories, with 11 years of piano and 5 years of music theory and musical language. I've been teaching for two years now, and I love sharing my passion. I also compose, and it would be a real pleasure to create custom pieces for my students. Besides that, I play guitar, violin, and sing regularly. I'm a very versatile musician, always curious to discover and share.

I make it a point of honor to adapt to my student. Does he or she feel comfortable in the academic system of the conservatory and need a framework? Very well, I will repeat the same study plan. Does he or she want to play covers of well-known songs? Very well, I can make the arrangements myself. Does he or she want to express his or her creativity and learn improvisation techniques? Very well, I will be happy to forge his or her spontaneity. My goal is for the student to love music and understand its potential. Lessons mainly aimed at beginner-intermediate. From 4 years old.

As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.

As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.

Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.

In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

With me, you can work on classic percussion instruments (marimba, vibraphone, snare drum, multi-percussion) as well as drums. We will see how we can combine the two and create links between them. I will try to offer visual and auditory resources so that the person has fun and progresses at the same time. It will be a question of understanding technique and theory as a means serving an artistic and musical end.

Adapted to each person’s level, goals and time.

During this time we will be able to progress on different aspects of the battery

- Rhythms and accompaniment patterns in different genres (Rock, Jazz, Funk, Latin...)
- Independence
- Basics
- The sound
- Tempo and groove
- Musical reading and theory
- Improvisation

When it comes to classical percussion, many aspects are similar, although some differ.

- the work of melodic instruments (marimbam, vibraphone, xylohpone)
- Harmonic and tonal/modal knowledge of these instruments.
- Holds 2 and 4 sticks
- Knowledge of pieces from the percussion repertoire.
- Opportunity to work on adaptations of classic composers.
- Technical and musical work on orchestral instruments

Hello,

I offer recorder and/or music theory lessons, tailored to each student's needs. You can choose to focus on the instrument, deepen your musical understanding through music theory, or combine both for a comprehensive learning experience. For recorder, we work on breath control, fingering, articulation, posture, interpretation of early and contemporary repertoire, ornamentation, improvisation, and more. For music theory, I adapt my method to your level: reading notes and rhythms, listening skills, identifying intervals, fundamental harmonics, and understanding musical language. My approach is dynamic, supportive, and structured, always attentive to the student's pace and interests.
