About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Full cello teacher at the Brest CRR. After obtaining the First Prize in 2003 at the prestigious international Young Concert Artists competition in New York, Romanian cellist Laura's career took off thanks to this worldwide recognition. The press described her as "a true virtuoso, whose sounds, flowing from her instrument as from a source, are full of color and drama" (New York Times). The artist “might as well be a soprano. She embraces the cello as an extension of her own body, thus personifying the lyricism specific to an instrument so close to the human voice ”(Washington Post). The same year, she also won the First Prize of the International Arturo Bonucci Competition in Rome: "an artist with exceptional musical intuition, endowed with an accomplished technique ..." (La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno).
Laura was born in Bucharest in 1980. She began studying the cello at the age of 10, preparing for the “Georges Enesco” Music High School in Bucharest with teachers Constantin Gheorghiu and Dan Totan. From 1999 to 2004, she studied at the University of Music in Bucharest with Marin Cazacu and Vasile Tugui. From 2004 to 2007, she completed her master's degree at the Hochschule für Musik Köln, in the class of Professor Frans Helmerson. Throughout her years, she has participated in numerous masterclasses in Germany, Spain, France, the Netherlands and Romania.

Experience / Qualifications

Full professor grade A at the CRR in Brest, professor at the University of Music in Bucharest
As a soloist Laura made her debut on the stage of the Berlin Philharmonic in 2006, in Shostakovich's 1st Concerto for Cello and Orchestra with the Berliner Sinfoniker, under the direction of James Gaffigan. “Laura gave a reading of the first cello concerto, focused on developing her own voice, but at the same time with a great diversity of timbre and articulation. In the slow movement, this was particularly evident, the artist has succeeded in brilliantly developing popular dance which emerges almost instantly from the preceding elements ”(Berliner Zeitung). She has performed as a soloist with a number of important orchestras: Bari Symphony Orchestra, Berlin Chamber Orchestra (Rheigau Festival), "George Enescu" Philharmonic in Bucharest, Romanian Radio Orchestra, Shanghai Philharmonic, Santander Orchestra, Ohio Symphony Orchestra, North Carolina Symphony Orchestra, concertos by Shostakovich, Dvorak, Vieru, Ph. E. Bach or Saint-Saens, as well as Rococo Variations by Tchaikovski.

If you want to learn to play the cello or improve your skills do not hesitate to write me!

Online Cello Lessons. All ages and levels are welcome
Hi! My name is Alina, I am 22 years old, and I would like to offer you cello lessons. Let me tell you about my education. I completed my bachelor’s degree at the Poznańs Music Academy in Poland, and this year I will finish my master’s degree in Bolzano, Italy. In addition, I completed a three-year pedagogical course in Poland, so I am confident in my abilities to be a good teacher for both adults and children.

Classical and modern cello classes in Barcelona
(Important! The schedules are now closing with the students I already have, so it is difficult to specify a definitive schedule for September) Hello! I have been teaching classes continuously for more than 10 years and I would like to explain what you can find in a class with me! - To begin with, the most important thing is to know what you want to achieve. I would like to focus the classes according to what you need. For example, we will not put the same level of demand if you want to play for pleasure at home without haste or if you want to do some entrance exams to musical studies (although always with the same good rigor). The needs of each student can vary the methodology, the way of organizing the study sessions, the postural work, the repertoire... - Once we know what we want to achieve and by when, classes will begin in a relaxed atmosphere. Important! Relaxed is not equal to undemanding or rigorous, just that we will try not to resort to military methods, especially given my character and sense of humor ;). - Something important to note is that my methods are very dynamic and with special emphasis on the development of the ear and musicality. No reading, spitting and changing songs. I try to avoid methods that focus too much on the continuous reading of scores without memorizing, listening or understanding what is being done and why, especially so that later you can make your own aesthetic decisions and feel ownership of your performance. Alert! Maybe I'll even make you sing. - Last but not least, it should be noted that given my training (I studied classical music and modern music and jazz at the Taller de Músics) my tendency will be to give the same importance to different types of music. We will adapt to your tastes and needs, but for me we can go from baroque to blues, from blues to Haydn's sonatas, from Haydn to bebop and from bebop to Michael Jackson. Why not? If you like what you have read, do not hesitate to contact me. Learning to play the cello is a pleasure and I would love to share it with you!

Sergio
Higher Graduate (with masters) in Cello and Conducting teaches music at all levels
My teaching method is scrupulously adapted to each student I have, regardless of the subject to work on (musical language, cello, music history, analysis, conducting, etc.) I always apply the Belgian teaching model, where I trained with my master's degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). According to this model, the main thing is a living and practical teaching, taking understanding and not memory as the main learning engine.

By taking online music classes in cello, piano, music theory, and composition, students can develop a well-rounded musical foundation. Cello and piano lessons enhance instrumental technique, musical expression, and performance skills. Music theory classes provide an understanding of harmony, rhythm, and melody, essential for analyzing and interpreting music. Composition classes allow students to apply their theoretical knowledge by creating original pieces, learning how to structure works, orchestrate for different instruments, and develop a personal style. These classes also cultivate discipline, creativity, and confidence in musical practice.

Cello - Classical singing - Music theory lessons in The Hague
Hi ! I am Héloïse, a French cellist and singer who lives in The Netherlands since two years. I finished to study at HKU Utrecht Conservatorium in June and am now a professional musician and, among other a cello teacher at the Lindenberg Center in Nijmegen. After teaching music theory for two years in a french conservatory, I realized how much teaching is very important for me and helps me to grow as a musician. I like to adapt to the student and try to find a solution in any pedagogical situation. I can teach all cello and singing levels, and all ages. I can also give some music theory lessons. The lessons can be at my place in The Hague or online but also at the student place, in English or French. Thank you!

Cello (classical, pop, jazz), Music Theory and Ear Training
Learning how to play cello can be very frustrating sometimes if you don’t find the right exercises or motivation. Maybe you just want to learn how to play some song of your liking, or maybe you want to start to become a professional musician. Either way, I like to work with music and find the best way for my students to enjoy the lessons and learn at their own rythm.

Tamir
Cello lessons for intermediate and professionals! Combining with body-work for a pain free experience
Hello there! My name is Tamir. I am an Israeli cellist living in Berlin, and for the past years I have been performing in various renowned festival such as Yellow Barn, Lumières d’Europa and Geneva International Academy while pursuing my bachelors degree under the guidance of Prof. Frans Helmerson. Throughout the years, I have always been fascinated with the art of teaching. Through my main mentor, Prof. Zvi Plesser (The Julliard School), I learned more then just cello playing. I learned the value of persistence, search for beauty and expression. I have had the fortune of working and performing with todays most prominent musicians such as Daniel Barenboim, Krzysztof Chorzelski (Belcea Quartet), Donald Weilerstein and Gary Hoffman. Now, after finishing my studies, I am eager to share my knowledge with you! If you are a beginner, a professional, or an adult who would like to reconnect to music, I invite you for a search of discovery and fulfillment!
