Double Bass, Electric Bass, and Band Coach lessons. All ages and levels!Hello!
My name is Bjørk and I’m a professional double bass player living and teaching here in Amsterdam. I have 2 diplomas in Jazz Bass from Sweden and a degree in Jazz Bass Performance from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.
I love teaching and I have taught since 2016. And I love the bass!
I teach double bass, electric bass, composition, improvisation and music theory. I have experience teaching complete beginners with zero prior musical knowledge to more advanced players. I also have taught students online.
I believe that every student is different and I always customize and adapt my lessons to your needs and your goals. And don’t worry if you’re not sure what those are yet, we can figure it out together! As I see it, music and learning should be most of all: fun! Of course it’s at times challenging, but we will focus on what you feel passionate about and see what works best for you.
Even though I specialize in jazz, I have played many genres and we can do anything you want. Pop, rock, punk, indie, world-music/folk funk, or anything else that you are interested in. I also teach band coaching if you have a band that you want to play with.

Jazz Double Bass / Improvised Music and Electric Bass lessonsThe Contrabass is a marvelous instrument: powerful, subtle, demanding, astonishing.
Graduated from the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de Paris in Jazz specialty and teacher (private individual / replacement in conservatory) for 4 years, I suggest you dive into the heart of his universe.
For this I appreciate relying on a flexible method putting the passion and envy of my students at the forefront.
Meet, establish a dialogue and move forward together towards a common goal: to have fun while making progress!
My horizons:
-The jazz double bass (walking bass, improvisation, sounds, repertoire, rhythm, theory ..)
- the "general" technique (body position, right hand, left hand, flexibility, etc.)
-the classical double bass (sound of the bow, phrasing, study of pieces ...)
- "contrabassistic" culture (operation of the instrument, the undisputed masters, the repertoire in the broad sense ...)
I am also an electric bass player (another wonderful instrument) graduated from the Marne and Chantereine conservatories.
My method remains the same and I love to teach (and constantly learn) the greatest number of styles, repertoire, ranging from Rock to Funk through Pop, hip hop and Cuban music.
All levels and all ages welcome!
Classes can be taught in French, English or Italian.
Robin.
