Violin lessons Jazz / improvisation for (slightly) advanced students.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Have you always wanted to close the book?
Tried to improvise intuitively?
Take the challenge with yourself, you will see how fast you can take the first steps to improvisation!

Other styles such as Irish, Country / Bluegrass, Pop are also included in the lessons.

Most (classically trained) violinists have no experience in improvising.
This method is very accessible and will quickly familiarize you with this.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I'm Xander, I've been playing the violin all my life.
Soon after my first years of violin lessons I started playing with gypsies, where I learned jazz and gypsy music.
After that I also started to write my own music and have now recorded my first solo album "Out Of The Blue".

I perform a lot as a solo artist, but also in different companies in different music styles, and recently even Flamenco.

Recently the first book of my new violin method Creative Violin is ready.
This method is for beginners and includes classically different music styles such as Irish, Balkans, Gypsy Jazz ...
For me it is important to introduce the beginning violinist to music in the widest possible way.

Education

HAVO high school

I was the first violinist to graduate in Light Music in the Netherlands.

Great teacher who quickly made me feel at ease. Has developed an interesting method to learn to play the new styles. I had stopped for almost 20 years after a classical training in which I got stuck. Now I have a lot of desire and motivation to play again. And I notice that learning these new styles also has a clear impact on my classical playing. I am very happy that I have taken this step and I am very curious about the next lessons.

Violin class new style according to a completely new method: "Creative Violin" In addition to classic, you will immediately learn many different musical styles such as Irish, Country, Jazz, Pop ... You even learn to improvise, from lesson 1! Improvisation and intuitive play stimulate creativity enormously. This is very easy to learn and fun! Play along with videos and accompaniments that have already been recorded in advance.

My name is Ludovic, I had the chance to learn alongside eminent professors including Blagoya Dimcevski at the Toulouse Conservatory. It is important for me to pass on the knowledge that I had the chance to acquire whether in classical music or film music, of which I am very passionate.

Pedro
Violinist with 15 years of experience with the instrument, completed professional degree. I also teach basic concepts of musical language.
I use the methods with which I learned, such as books like Suzuki, Czerni, etc., always adapted to the student's age and level. The student's musical preferences will also be taken into account for learning pieces or songs they enjoy. There will also be an emphasis on public performances, as this is one of the most challenging aspects for musicians. We will try to organize concerts or recitals in a family setting to practice this skill. Finally, motivation will be reinforced by preparing duets (two violins, violin and piano, violin and guitar, etc.), as this is one of the most effective methods for improving skill level.

Giacomo
Violin Lessons in Zurich: Mastery and Mindfulness!
Dear students, My name is Giacomo and I hold two Master of Arts in Music Performance, one in Rome and one from the "Zurcher Hochschule der Kunste" in Zurich. During my class lessons you'll learn the wonderful art of playing the violin, an incredible instrument! I have many years of experience with teaching, I do private lessons and I have worked as a teacher for "Tiziano Rossetti International Music Academy in Lugano" for several years. As a teacher my goal is to bring out the best version of my students, using their individual strenghts, which are different for each of them. It's a pleasure for me to teach to anybody who wants even just to discover the art of playing the violin. As a pedagogue, after one month experience in a meditation retreat in Thailand, my approach involves not only focusing on the technical development of the instrument but also paying close attention to the physical and mental well-being of my students. I incorporate meditation and yoga as key elements to ensure a pleasant and optimal experience with the instrument and with oneself.

Neda
Violin lessons, for beginners and advanced no matter the age.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced player, if you're here, it probably means you need support in some aspect of your music education. With a background of over 17 years of playing the violin and pedagogical experience in teaching youth, I bring the knowledge gathered from the world scene in a systematized way to the students I work with. As part of my program, you will get to know and explore: - Fundamentals: reading violin music, proper posture, intonation, scales, solfeggio, techniques and other exercises. - Violin Technique: correct posture, holding of the violin and the bow, finger and bow techniques through various exercises. - Pitch and Rhythm: recognize and notate pitches on all strings, experience diverse rhythms and meters. - Musical Vocabulary: basic musical terms and symbols. - Making music: learning to express your musicality through understanding form, dynamics, tempo and phrasing. - Repertoire: literature of various composers, understanding their style and of the epoch of theirs. Please contact me before booking a lesson so that I can understand your priorities and, in accordance with your level of experience and individual learning pace, embark on this musical journey. With the desire to build a platform for violinists together, I eagerly await you in my online classroom!
