Inspiring piano lessons at my piano studio | For children and adults | For all levels

Hello!

I'm Richard from The Netherlands, and I offer piano lessons for children (7+), teenagers and adults of all levels.

I'm a certificated piano teacher and concert pianist with a Master of Arts diploma. (I have studies at the Sweelinck Conservatory in Amsterdam and the University of Arts in Berlin, among others).

I've got 20 years of experience in piano teaching. Over years I have taught both children and adults of all levels. Besides my activities as a piano teacher, I made numerous concert tours in several countries including France, Germany, The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Oman and the United Arab Emirates. I also won various prestigious piano competitions and was invited for master classes by world-famous pianists like Murray Perahia, Jacques Rouvier and Emanuel Ax, which took place in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw.

Students of all levels are welcome! I will teach you to read notes (if you haven't learned that yet), use different kinds of piano technique, develop your musicality and most importantly, enjoy to play this beautiful instrument.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, or to schedule a lesson.

About Me

Hello, thank you for viewing my profile! I'm Richard from The Netherlands. I started playing the piano when I was 5 years old. I've always loved the instrument and I would like to inspire my students to enjoy playing the piano as much as I do myself. To express emotions through music has always been an important part of my piano playing as a performer on stage. And as a teacher I try to offer my students all the necessary "ingredients" and techniques to be able to achieve the musical interpretation they're searching for and to develop their musicality to a high level.

Education

where I studied at the Amsterdam Conservatory and graduated the Master of Music studies (pedagogy and performance). Later, I continued studying at the University of Music in Berlin.

Experience / Qualifications

During and after my studies I’ve taught piano lessons in Amsterdam for about 20 years (both private and in music schools) - which I have combined with concert tours in Europe and abroad.

Vincent
Classical guitar and music theory lessons by a qualified teacher from the Conservatory
Whether you are an adult or younger, did you know that with the proper methods, follow-up and advice, you can reach in 2 years the equivalent of what is achieved in 10 years in music school? The passion and pleasure of playing will quickly make you forget the minimum 1h30 of daily practice necessary for this beautiful and pleasant feat. This is the challenge I set myself by offering you these courses. Practicing classical guitar for 27 years, graduated from the National Conservatory of Limoges, I teach guitar (beginner to advanced levels). My method is distinguished by a perfect combination of high standards and attention paid to the pleasure of playing. Passionate about music theory (rhythms, musical notations and other aspects that seem tedious to many), I know how to transmit this taste for musical technique. The pleasure of play develops when you feel your progress, and these come with regular work. I therefore ask for attendance and regularity of at least 1 hour of practice per day. Depending on the students, the frequency of lessons can be bi-weekly or bi-monthly, and will be defined together, while remaining flexible. I can also advise you on the purchase of a classical guitar. Note: the practice of the classical guitar requires short nails on the left hand, and nails overflowing just beyond the tip of the finger, on the right hand, at all times. This allows an inimitable sound quality. References on request Follow up by email/phone as needed between lessons. Examples of pieces you will be able to play after a year: works by Bach, Giuliani, Fernando Sor, Carcassi, Aguado, Jeux Interdits, baroque flamenco, romantic works
