Music Class, Double Bass, Guitar, Harmony, Arrangement.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I am an eclectic and curious musician, before any contrabassist. I am also a composer and arranger.

After a master of sociology I make the decision to train myself professionally; I return simultaneously to the conservatory of Agen in jazz and conservatory of Bordeaux in classical to learn bass.

Then, in 2014, I confirm a National Superior Professional Musician Diploma at the Pole Supérieur Paris Boulogne Billancourt through the training at the Didier Lockwood Music Center.

I was trained retrospectively by Jean-Paul Macé, Kent Carter, Gilles Naturel, Marc-Michel Lebevillon, Cristian Diaz, Jean Michel Charbonel, Chris Jennings, Cristophe Dal-sasso, and Carine Bonnefoy (for writing).

All these people have nourished my love and passion for music, which remains for me a long way to explore in search of new knowledge.

It is the diversity of cultures and the wealth of knowledge that drives me to continue to study everything within my reach.

I'm interested in jazz, classical music, Indian music, rock and electronic music ...

I hate taboos and separations between the musical worlds and I think that everyone wins to share their knowledge and their modes of operation.

My way of thinking about learning Music:

I prefer to stay on a principle of pleasure and sharing specific to music.

I find it important to adapt to feed the motivation of the student, especially for young people with whom it is very important to have a fun approach.

Too many students leave demotivated classes of music schools or conservatory; that I practiced for 5 years (since despite my criticisms I still have a prize of jazz conservatory and I followed the training to obtain the DE of jazz which is a diploma of pedagogy).

This involves learning the mechanisms based on improvisation, understanding chords, rhythm and melody.

Regarding the repertoire I am based on the culture of the students, after all they are the main concerned! So the choices of the pieces depend on the desires and the tastes.

The mode of learning depends on the musical style approached, for example I will not make music theory to someone who wants to play the AC / DC (unless he wishes) conversely a person who wants to address jazz can hardly do without notions about harmony.

The purpose of this approach is to develop the independence of the student. The teacher is there to accompany the student at the beginning; he must not become a guardian who can sometimes be transformed over the years into a crutch!

This is my way of seeing pedagogy!

My influences are as diverse as my career since I take so much pleasure to listen to Mingus, Lili Boulanger, Bjork, The silver mount zion or The Bad Plus etc ...

It is possible to organize classes in pairs or trinomials by level and age groups. This is to directly develop a collective approach to music, and thus allow the student to integrate easily into a music group.
Riding a small group or being able to play quickly with another unknown individual is an asset in itself.

This involves learning the mechanisms based on improvisation, understanding chords, rhythm and melody.

Guitar lessons by a state-certified teacher in Rosny sous Bois, Fontenay, Montreuil.
Guitar lessons by a state-certified teacher in Rosny sous Bois, Fontenay, Montreuil. I am a classical guitarist and professional lutenist, I offer guitar / lute lessons. Graduated in pedagogy, I have been teaching guitar for ten years in various conservatories in the Paris region. I try to develop in the student a sense of touch, listening, curiosity and an intelligent practice of the instrument. I give him benchmarks to become autonomous. In general, I answer all the questions that arise in relation to a score and the instrument. I advise him on the repertoire, the performers, the concerts. I also prepare for entrance exams to conservatory and I can give music theory support lessons. I teach at home in Montreuil / Bagnolet and at home in Montreuil, Bagnolet, Vincennes, Paris? I am looking for motivated students: adults are welcome. One class per week or every 15 days as desired. Degrees: Higher National Diploma of Musician State Diploma of Guitar Teacher Bachelor of Musicology Master of interpretation on ancient instruments (Schola Cantorum Basel)

Paloma
I offer music theory lessons for all levels, adapted to the objectives and desires of each student!
My approach combines theory and creativity. We will approach learning notes through a conductor book but also through colors, drawings and songs for a fun and lively memorization. You will also discover the essential signs for reading and writing music: staff, keys, rests, alterations, ornaments and other elements enriching the musical language. The rhythm will be worked on through a book but also in a physical way thanks to dance, movement, body clapping to naturally integrate the pulse and the tempo. We will explore ensemble playing, essential for developing listening and musical cohesion with others. Interpretation and nuances will be addressed by highlighting musical colors and expressiveness in order to bring each piece to life and convey emotions. You will discover different musical styles and eras, varied instrumental forms and formations in order to enrich your musical culture. Finally, music theory (tones, chords, intervals, scales, cadences, etc.) will be integrated in a progressive and accessible way. My goal is to offer you tailor-made learning, so that each student progresses at their own pace while enjoying exploring the richness of Music.

Benoit
Guitar lessons in Montreuil
Teacher, songwriter, musician, I propose guitar lessons in Montreuil in a friendly atmosphere that favors the pleasure of the game. To discover the guitar, improve or simply have fun! Internships during the holidays or on request, in initiation or improvement. Graduate of the ATLA School (Paris), I teach for 6 years with the heart to transmit my passion in a climate of confidence, reconciling quality to the pleasure of learning!

Hugo
Learn pop, rock, folk, jazz, Brazilian, Latin or Afro-Latin music, blues...
I offer guitar lessons based on a benevolent pedagogy and which will adapt to your needs and evolve according to your rhythm. My experience of more than 15 years of guitar, and my practice of music as a multi-instrumentalist (percussion, piano, trumpet...) for 25 years, have allowed me to develop a global knowledge of music allowing me to understand the links between theory, musical harmony, rhythm and technique. My goal is to encourage self-expression. I use musical knowledge (theoretical, musical harmony, rhythm, etc.) with the symbolism of the latter to explain how music is a language, in other words a means of expression and sharing that allows us to connect, to communicate, but also to celebrate and have fun. My lessons are totally adapted to the creation of songs as well as accompaniment with singing. My experience: 8 years of teaching (jazz, blues, Brazilian music, Latin and Afro-Latin music...). Three years of jazz workshop with David Patrois at the conservatory of the 5th arrondissement of Paris. My lessons are only given at my home, at Mairie de Montreuil, 93100.

Hello ! Want to start learning the guitar, or improve? I give private lessons of acoustic guitar and / or electric for all ages, all levels, at home or at home in Montreuil in a large lounge dedicated to music. I have 15 years of practice of the guitar and I graduated from ATLA, school of music in Paris where I am trained in the professions of current music (basically it's all music except the classical), so Blues , Jazz, Bossa Nova, Pop, Rock, Metal, Reggae, French song, etc. You will not learn with me infernal techniques that after hours and hours of rehearsal will allow you to make the fastest solos in the Paris region. But I'll teach you how to make the notes and chords sound better, I'll help you develop an expressive game. I have a teaching method in place, but it is quite flexible, it can be adapted according to your desires and your level. It is based on the learning of pieces (imposed or according to your choices) varied that will allow you to work several techniques of play, and a complete musical training: - The agreements (how they are built, encryption, reversals, enrichments) - The notes and intervals on the neck of the guitar - Harmony (tone, degrees, cadences, substitutions) - The ranges and the modes - Melodic and rhythmic readings - Improvisation - Composition It is quite possible to start classes without any musical training. In electric guitar, I teach the essentials to know to have a good sound: - Effects (reverb, delay, distortion, etc.) - Amps (settings, different types) - Design your pedalboard

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

Gabriel
Pianiste certifié enseigner le piano pour tous niveaux. Méthodologie personnelle et décontractée !
J'ai plus de 12 ans d'expérience en enseignement, un diplôme de licence en interprétation au piano et une certification pédagogique d'une université reconnue internationalement. J'ai participé à de nombreuses classes de master de piano en Europe et j'ai étudié avec de grands pianistes. J'apprends toujours auprès de différents pianistes hautement accomplis. Je travaille comme pianiste professionnel depuis maintenant 6 ans, en Suisse, en Espagne, aux Maldives, à Chypre, en Autriche, en Islande et sur des navires de croisière de luxe (autour du monde). J'ai environ 10 000 abonnés sur Youtube, 18 000 sur Facebook et 30 000 sur Instagram. Au cours de ma carrière, j'ai appris que la compassion, la communication et l'encouragement sont tout aussi essentiels à la transmission de connaissances musicales que de compétences techniques. Je vous apprends également à vous DÉTENDRE CORRECTEMENT, afin que vous ne subissiez jamais aucune blessure (tendinite, etc.) pendant que vous pratiquez le piano. Mon expérience professionnelle comprend le coaching d'étudiants de tous niveaux et de tous âges, l'enseignement à différents niveaux de compétences. J'ai préparé avec succès les étudiants avec leurs examens de piano comme ABRSM, Trinity Grade 1-8 et des examens plus avancés. Je peux vous apprendre à jouer de la musique classique, du ragtime, du blues, du jazz, de la musique traditionnelle, de la musique moderne (Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, etc.), de la musique ancienne (Abba, Queen, etc.). Je dispense mes cours en utilisant une combinaison de 3 caméras pour une visibilité optimale et un microphone de qualité que mes étudiants trouvent très utile. Cela leur permet de voir une démonstration visuelle très claire à côté de mon explication verbale. Je vous donnerai des cours de piano en ligne personnalisés. Pour les débutants, j'utilise les livres de méthode Alfred, mais je suis très ouvert à l'utilisation d'autres livres également. J'aime enseigner et expliquer des choses générales, des habitudes qui peuvent être appliquées à des passages musicaux similaires, que l'on retrouve dans toutes les partitions musicales, de la musique classique à la musique moderne.
