Guitar lessons (also by WEBCAM), harmony, improvisation ...
Hello everyone ! I am 39 years old, I am a professional guitarist and graduate composer. My rich and varied musical journey, going from "Art Rock" to Classic, passing by French song and currently jazz allowed me to acquire a beautiful experience that I like to share with my students. Obviously passionate about my favorite instrument, I am just as passionate about music theory. From baroque counterpoint to jazz harmony, from classical orchestration to digital music publishing, I have always thought that understanding the sound universe multiplies perspectives, opens up new horizons! My method is simple and has always proven to be effective: working in symbiosis with pure instrumental technique and the general understanding of music, its cogs which seem to the novice musician so mysterious. In addition to basic instrument learning, I also teach: 🎸️ Experimental instrumental techniques 🎸️ Work of virtuosity 🎸️ Picking game 🎤️ How to go well with singing 🎵️ Arrangement 🎵️ Composition 🎵️ Harmony (classical or jazz) 🎵️ Improvisation 💻️ MAO (Computer Aided Music) Exploring musical styles: #Pop #EXP #Classique #Electro #Jazz #Jazz Manouche #Art & Hard Rock #Chanson Française #Blues #Funk (60's / 70's) 🎥️ Possibility of lessons by webcam ️🇬🇧️ I also speak English 🏡️ I give lessons mainly at my home: Châtelain district in Ixelles, many transport nearby: 🚊️ bus (54), tram (92, 94, 81.) and metro (Louise). 🐸️ GREAT BEGINNERS welcome! (no prior knowledge necessary) See you soon !

Yovanny
Private guitar lessons, beginner and intermediate level.
Guitar lessons are aimed at beginners and intermediate levels, and are designed to meet your musical desires, whether you want to explore jazz, blues, rock or world music. Together we will explore harmony, rhythm, improvisation, and much more. Discover how to approach guitar technique while associating it with pleasure, discovery and curiosity. With a long musical career on stage and as a composer, I am passionate about transmitting this universal language that is music. Although music transcends borders, it has its own codes and traditions, varying according to style. It brings together, it shares, and is transmitted as much orally as in writing. As an eclectic musician, I express myself in both modern and traditional music. I am enthusiastic about the idea of sharing and transmitting what fascinates me above all else.

Lucien
Young Bioengineer graduate with a passion for guitar gives guitar lessons in Brussels
My methodology is simple. Who plays, progresses. Thus, I believe that the best way to progress on the guitar is the direct integration in a group playing context. That is to say, after having reviewed the essential basics of the guitar (main chords, transition from one chord to another, rhythmic, ...), I intend to play with the student and let him express his creativity, let it wake up little by little. I would therefore like to organise each session on a different theme where we would find: a simple and short theory point followed by a practical application of this and an illustration through a known piece. I will of course listen carefully to my student's preferences as to the choice of musical genre. Bring your wildest ideas to life, learn the guitar!

Marianna
Classical guitar lessons in Brussels with professional musician.
Hello everyone, Μy name is Marianna and I am a concert artist and guitar tutor. I have nurtured a profound love for classical guitar since my childhood and commenced my musical journey at the age of 10. After attending the National Conservatory of Athens, I graduated with the highest honours. Furthering my studies, I joined the Royal Brussels Conservatory, where I undertook the Bachelor of Music programme under the tutelage of Antigoni Goni. Keen to explore different cultures and musical scenes, I opted to pursue further studies in Berlin, where I trained under Rainer Feldmann. Whilst studying at the Universität der Künste in Berlin, I cultivated a distinct passion for Baroque music and received tutelage in Baroque guitar and theorbo from Sam Chapman. During my studies, I provided private guitar tutoring and also taught at a state music school in Berlin/Brandenburg for five years from September 2018 until August 2023. During this time, I created and oversaw a guitar class of more than 35 students of diverse ages and skill levels. To complement my teaching methodology, I formed three guitar ensembles, ranging from trios to quintets, which incorporated chamber music. After at least twelve years of teaching guitar to several children and adults, I firmly believe that students should have hands-on experience with the instrument from their very first lesson, and at the same time be introduced to music theory. I follow a method that emphasizes the development of critical basics in my students to enable them to comprehend music and the instrument through theory and solfeggio, utilizing scores instead of tablatures. Depending on the preferences of the student, we can explore a diverse range of repertoires, encompassing classical and folk genres, among others. Throughout my teaching career, I have worked effectively and efficiently with learners of all ages and experience levels, from complete novices to those readying themselves for university-level assessments (such as Grade 8 ABRSM). I am proficient in English, German, and Greek, and possess a rudimentary understanding of French. My music studio is located in Saint Gilles, Brussels, and is open to all interested learners. Thank you very much, Marianna
