Piano and Music Theory (especially for songwriters)

I specialize in teaching music theory and piano, especially for songwriters, drawing from my background of classical piano, my MA in songwriting, and my career as a published singer/songwriter. I assign creative exercises as homework, and I try to not let any question unanswered!

For instrumentalists, we will look at the piano and some of its different techniques - classical, jazz, accompanying yourself, with focus on what the student actually wants to learn.
For songwriters, we will go through music theory basics, and then basic harmony until we will be able to construct own our songs.

Private lessons in MAO/Synthesizers/Recording/Hearing training/Experimental sound creation
Do you or your child want to broaden your musical horizons? Learn how to integrate technology into your music learning? Want to know how to turn a song idea into an audio file professionally? Maybe just introduce you to music in general? Or deepen your knowledge of computer composition? YOU'VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE! ☺♫ What I offer: → Complete training in DAW software (Ableton Live and others!) → In-depth exploration of electronic instruments (synthesizers, MIDI controllers) → Instrumental recording techniques and construction of audio models → Hearing training and awareness of the different characteristics of sound (timbre, pitch, audio effects) → Experimental sound creation and sound design (eg: reproducing the roar of the T-REX) → Introduction to music theory and composition → Support and coaching for your musical project → What you think is relevant to your journey! The course will be adapted to your needs and all subjects are adaptable to your level! Simple, fun and enriching! But why learn all this? → Computers today have an essential and central role in music in general. No matter what musical style you listen to, it is necessary that these artists have used DAW technologies to deliver their piece to you. Also, the accessibility of software today allows anyone with an artistic intention to be able to exploit it and offer it to the general public. ¤ Computer access is ideal for taking classes, but I am open to discussing alternative options! ¤

The duration of the lessons is flexible and three locations are possible (apart from your house, if you prefer that): Kruisplein, 3012 CC, Willem Buytewechstraat, 3024 BP, or Essenburgsingel, 3022 EM. If you are interested, and would like to know more, feel free to contact me via this site. Have a nice day :)

Richard
Private guitar lessons for every level: from basic chords to out of the box improvisation
Hey! My name is Richard and I give private lessons to all levels. For guitar, it is important that you can improve yourself in a pleasant environment in a fun way where your interests are central. Do you want to delve deeper into a certain style? Do you want to create your own sound on your guitar using amps, and pedals, ...? I can help you with all that! Knowledge of solfège or music theory is not required, we can always discuss this in class if you wish, but that is certainly not mandatory ;) I have been playing the guitar since I was 9 years old and for several years now I have been playing in professional bands with which I have been able to play on sugar rock, for example. The lessons would take place at my home in Mol or via webcam. If necessary, we can always agree on something else. Be sure to let me know if you have any questions and I will answer as soon as possible. See you soon! Richard PS: my specified hours are a guideline, if this does not suit you, you can certainly send us a message and we will try to arrange something :)

Denise
Singing classes in Vienna for all age students and musical styles (Online/Offline)
Dear students: My name is Denise and I'm a professional singer with a singing master's degree from Catalonia's Music College (ESMUC) specialized in Historical Singing, Musicology and Music Education. My experience runs mostly in early and classical music with an active performing life, nevertheless I also have the experience and knowledge of popular musical styles such as Latin-American folk, jazz and musicals. As a docent or vocal coach I've collaborate with different academic institutions and private artistic projects, focusing mostly on international students or social integration programs. I have years of experience teaching children, teenagers and adults in both Latin-America and Europe, therefore understanding different appreciation levels and needs. My main goal is to help the student discover her or his voice while enjoying making music. **Class suggestions and indications** No experience is needed just bring your enthusiasm and favorite music. Classes can be given either in English, Spanish, French or Deutsch. There are no limit for styles, bring your favorite music and I will provide a safe environment for your personal and musical growth. For Children I strongly recommend the 45 min class since their attention span and body development is different from an adult. Feel free to contact me in case of further questions. I would love to work together to achieve your musical goals. All my best, Denise
