About Me
Ik heb zowel aan het Conservatorium van Enschede als dat van Amsterdam gestudeerd. Hier heb ik jazz-gitaar en docent muziek gevolgd. Helaas bestaat er (nog) geen speciale mondharmonica opleiding. Tijdens mijn opleiding muziekwetenschap aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam deed ik onderzoek naar bluesmuziek. Ik heb toen veel professionele mondharmonica-spelers gesproken. Via hen heb ik het instrument leren spelen en heeft de mondharmonica mijn hart gestolen.Samen met mijn leerling werk ik aan het leren van de juiste basistechnieken. Deze technieken stellen je in staat om vrij te kunnen spelen en te improviseren op de mondharmonica. Improviseren lijkt moeilijk, maar met de juiste hulp is dat het niet. Het is vooral een kwestie van durven en lol maken.
Door de combinatie van mijn geschoolde achtergrond en praktische ervaring weet ik ingewikkelde muzikale zaken voor iedereen eenvoudig uit te leggen.
Mijn lestijden zijn zeer flexibel; ik geef op alle werkdagen zowel overdag als ‘s avonds mondharmonica-les.
Ik stel lesmateriaal beschikbaar waarmee je thuis kan gaan werken.
Een goede mondharmonica is niet duur. Ik voorzie je graag van verder advies.
Groeps- en duolessen zijn ook mogelijk. De tarieven hiervoor worden in overleg bepaald. Dit hangt af van de les duur en de samenstelling van de groep.

Learn How to Play Trumpet Easily! (for all Ages and Levels)HI! I am Lenart and I am currently a student at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. I have been playing the trumpet for more than 15 years and have experience in many different music genres like Jazz, Pop, Classical, Baroque. I graduated from the Academy of Music in Ljubljana. I used to do a lot of teaching (young to old) when I was still residing in Slovenia. My desired goal as a teacher is to show you an easy and fun way to master a new skill or some new aspects of it, but not to fill your head with unnecessary things that will make your progress hard and slow.
I have studied with some of the biggest names of classical and jazz trumpet worldwide like: Omar Tomasoni, Miroslav Petkov, Reinhold Friedrich, Chris Colleti and many more.

Trumpet Lessons for all ages & stages, in classical & jazz and more!Hi! I'm a professional trumpet player from Australia now based in Amsterdam. I've spent the past 10 years freelancing with some of Australia's best orchestras (Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra Victoria, Darwin Symphony Orchestra & Sydney Symphony Orchestra to name a few..), as well as recording sessions for pop/rock artists, film scores and music theatre. I've enjoyed diversifying my career by teaching in Australian schools, and now since I've moved I'm looking to help you with your goals now I'm here in Holland.
I've taught students of all ages in classical, jazz, pop approaches to trumpet. My lessons are catered to your interests and your personal development. If you're an absolute beginner, no worries! We'll get you from making fart sounds to fun melodies soon enough. If you're a bit more experienced and wanting to improve your technique, you've come to the right place! I was lucky enough to be taught by some excellent heavyweight pedagogues in the scene, including David Elton (principal trumpet of London Symphony Orchestra and Sydney Symphony Orchestra), and Tristam Williams (international soloist). I've taken masterclasses with Wycliffe Gordon, Adam Rapa, James Morrison, Wayne Bergeron, Phillip Smith to name a few. I've got so much to share with you from those incredible teachers! And I've also formulated my own pedagogy along the way that I really believe in.

Private Trumpet Lessons Jazz/Classical/Middle east(Arabic)/Pop style/with All levels playingAs a Jazz Trumpet student of the Conservatorium van Amsterdam I offer private lessons for all ages and all levels.
In addition to my studies, I had been offering teaching Trumpet, Music Theory and Piano beginners (of any age), group or private lessons as well. I had been working in several schools in Istanbul teaching those subjects, examining, organizing auditions and helping students to prepare auditions to play in orchestras and schools.
In my opinion, creativity and pleasure of playing are the way to improve and learn. After teaching many years I understand all of my student are unique and different. When you have just started, we will take it easy by working on several things. We work from a teaching method, in which you go a step forward every week and can already enjoy playing within a short time! You will receive personalized tips and tricks, exercises and studies, so that you will enjoy reaching your goal! I pay attention not only to technique, but also to interpretation and musical imagination to allow my students to develop the most beautiful sound possible. Maybe it's something I can share with you!
Stay with music.

The trumpet, learn to play it by making music from the first class.The trumpet: its correct technical execution and the interpretation of popular and academic universal repertoires, is available to everyone regardless of their age. We will build a logical sequence of studies that will help develop the technical aspects. And we will address repertoires according to the age and taste of the student. we will draw a path with short, medium and long term goals. we will build a technical routine and healthy habits to progress correctly. In addition, we will select musical pieces by mutual agreement to mature the technical development hand in hand with musical growth.
I am a professional trumpeter, I have participated in symphony orchestras, wind bands, big band, and small chamber and jazz ensembles. I have extensive experience teaching children, youth and adults.
For me it is very important to make music from the first lesson, because there must be a balance between technical practice and its application in small melodies or musical pieces. No matter the musical genre, we will always find a repertoire according to the level and interest of each student.
If you already know how to play and you need to perfect a piece or prepare a recital or audition, you can count on my experience and accompaniment as well.
