Piano lessons in Vienna for beginners and advanced! I have been sharing my knowledge as a piano teacher for over 6 years.
In my piano lessons, I work with my students on a wide repertoire, ranging from classical works to pop and film music. It is particularly important to me to respond to the individual needs of my students and to awaken their enthusiasm for making music. I always enjoy working with children and adults of different ages.

Lessons take place weekly in my cozy home in the 3rd district on a high-quality Yamaha piano. With my cheerful and communicative manner, I ensure that the lessons always remain interesting and lively. It shouldn't be boring :)

About Me
Maia was born in Timisoara (Romania) and started playing the piano at the age of 7. She took piano lessons from Prof. Sorin Dogariu.
Already in 2007 she took part in the “Alma Cornea Euroregional Competition”, where she won first prize twice in a row. Further competitions followed: 2009 and 2010 Romanian Youth Music Competition (first prize in each case at the national level); 2011 national competition (second prize), 2013 and 2014 “Ars Nova” Trieste (second prize each).

She took part in various festivals in Romania, including “Schumann Festival”, “Baroque Festival”, “Remember Enescu”, and took part in master classes with Massimiliano Valenti (Italy), Daniela Dikova (Bulgaria), Reto Reichenbach (Switzerland) and Zoltán Füzessery (Graz) part.
This was followed by concerts in the “Klavierhaus Fiedler”, “Minoritensaal Graz”, in the Steiermarkhof, Eggenberg Castle and also in the Graz Opera.
In 2015 she performed the first movement of Schumann's piano concerto with the orchestra of the “JJ Fux Konservatorium” Graz under the direction of Thomas Platzgummer.
Education
In 2015, Maia began studying classical piano pedagogy with Prof. Alexander Rössler and Prof. Christiane Karajev at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna. In addition to her main subject lessons, she received further musical inspiration in chamber music lessons with Prof. Johannes Meisl and Petra Stump-Linshalm.

Hello there!

Do you wish to learn to play the piano but do not have several hours every day to dedicate to practicing? I can help! With 15 years of teaching experience, I’ve honed my methods to facilitate rapid progress and maximize efficiency. My students achieve in months, what usually takes years when following a conventional music school program. Nonetheless, I am not taking any shortcuts. On the contrary, one of the reasons why my students progress so fast is my insistence on building solid fundamentals. I strive for my students to master the necessary tools for them to then achieve their own personal ambitions.

Having observed the practice routines of professionals and university students worldwide, I've realized that there's often much time to be gained during practice. Realizing everyone's personnality, approach, affinities and tastes are different, I prioritize a personalized approach tailored to your individual learning style. Together, we'll make the most of our sessions, whether you're a beginner diving into music or an intermediate player seeking to enhance your skills. And guess what? You won't need to practice for hours on end to see significant improvement. With regular lessons, even just 15 minutes of practice three times a week can lead to enormous progress. As I often say, the learning process is more akin to a marathon than a sprint.

While efficiency is important, I believe that learning should be fun and inspiring. In my lessons, you can expect a supportive and encouraging environment. I'll be there with you every step of the way, celebrating your achievements and helping you overcome any challenges that arise. Together, we'll create a positive and empowering learning experience.

Ready to embark on your fast and efficient piano learning journey? Contact me to schedule lessons and get ready for a rewarding musical adventure! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Piano Classes

Online or in Vienna piano classes for individuals and groups: stay positive, have fun and develop creatively.

Professional Pianist, Opera Singer, composer and soloist at Madrid ́s Opera House, Innsbruck and Glyndebourne festivals and at the National Music Auditorium of Moscow, winner of many international competitions and a qualified teacher at Kiev and Valencia High Conservatories (Bachelor and Masters Degrees) offers piano, singing and Sol-Fa lessons for all styles, levels and ages!

My piano classes are structured so that students work on the most important aspects of training as a pianist and are tailored to the needs of the student. I give great importance to developing self motivation in a relaxed environment that encourages creative flow throughout the learning process. Repertoire is agreed with the student and adapted to the style of music preferred, together with student needs and objectives. Learn how to play the piano effortlessly and to express what you have inside!

I aim to cater to the tastes and needs of students in an open and individual way and have a Yamaha grand piano that students can enjoy playing on when face to face classes are again possible.


The principles of piano technique I teach are:
- Simplicity and naturalness of playing
- Discover your own style – you don ́t need to imitate!
- Posture, relaxation and stretching
- Improvisation – confidence to experiment
- Aural training
- Confidence building
- Developing your own repertoire

If you want to prepare for entrance exams for conservatories or professional music academies, for competitions, castings or auditions I can help! If you just want to have fun and experiment, I can help with that too!

I teach in Spanish, English, Italian, Ukrainian and Russian.

Asa professional singer, trained at Valencia’s Advanced Conservatory, I can also teach singing and vocal repertoire classes (one to one and tailored to student needs), please see my profile for further details.


I look forward to hearing from you

LEARNING BY HEART

Learn to play/sing favorite songs:
- Depending on your ability, we simplify (or enrich) the accompaniment and improve it in a fluid manner
- I'll show you various "hacks" and shortcuts
- you don't have to do anything "right", you can follow the fun.
- play/practice without pressure, how does that work...? You can make it easier for yourself! How much time you invest stays with you. :-)
- any style possible, as long as it makes sense for you technically
- Singing: easy!

Write your own songs:
- I give you different "glasses", "rails" through which you come up with new ideas, both for the music as well as the lyrics and singing
- "writers block" - from the head back to the heart using simple techniques
- learn to use the hidden treasure trove of ideas in your body (subconscious)!
- and most importantly: have fun with “bad” songs!

generally:
- you will find clear goals for each hour (e.g. record a song or parts of it,...), for the next few weeks and for the next months
- we record as much as possible because it is the best exercise (and the most exciting ;-) and you have something "in your hands" that is satisfying in itself, no matter how "perfect" it is (everything is perfect How clean is up to you ;-).
- I'll help you promote the joy of sharing your music ("I can give something!")
- and above all: learn to feel what really makes you happy.

It's important to me that you feel safe with me and have fun, no matter how things are going. I'm happy if you dare, it can only get better! :-)
