Double bass, Electric bass, Improvisation, Music, Jazz, Classical, Pop, Rock!

Do you want to play bass?
Do you want to learn more about music?
Do you have a music group that needs a coach?

I can help you with that!
My name is Alessio and I am an Italian professional double bass/bass player with degrees in classical and jazz.
I've been living in the Netherlands for over 10 years and I have more than 15 years of professional "live music" experience, including teaching children and adults.

I have always believed in the power of music to connect with others and forge relationships across linguistic and cultural boundaries.
In my opinion, the music discipline is one of the best drivers for a student to learn deeply about themselves.

In my lessons, we will make sure to cover many aspects of playing, from the physical approach to the instrument (especially important for double bass players) to the personal musical expression.

Depending on your wishes and needs, we can focus on:

Genres: jazz, improvisation, classical, pop, rock, metal, funk, blues, etc...
Learning deeper: ear training, harmony, theory, music theory
Band coaching

All levels (beginner, intermediate, conservatory preparation)

Online lessons possible and personal lessons possible in Rotterdam and The Hague

Languages: I can teach in English, Italian, and Spanish

About Me

Hi,
My name is Alessio and I' m an Italian double bass and bass guitar player.
I made music my life and I really believe in its power to connect people to each other as well as to themselves in unique ways. For both adults and kids, playing an instrument as beautiful as the bass can be the start of discovering these meaningful connections within daily life. Of course, connecting these days might be digital! But don't worry, my younger students have given a stamp of approval for our Skype lessons too.

Feel free to book a lesson and let's jam together!
