In my guitar lessons, we will develop your skills in the instrument to get a better and more personal tone, and feel more confident when improvising or playing in different styles. We will get there by learning songs, scales, chords, different techniques and putting all of them together.
I can also help you in songwriting, which I personally think that is a beautiful way to learn and apply the things we learn.

SINGING LESSON // TECHNIQUE // JAZZ // IMPROVISATION //Teaching has been an extraordinary tool for my personal development as a vocalist. It’s fascinating to
observe how the posture and vocal challenges of my students can reveal certain aspects of their
personality. As a singer, your body is your instrument, and any physical or psychological issues can directly
affect your voice.
Through teaching, I have realized the profound impact that practicing singing has on my overall well being. It is not only helps me take care of my body but also enables me to feel confident and at ease when
standing in front of individuals or even a large audience without hiding behind an instrument. This sense
of comfort and confidence extends beyond the realm of singing and positively influences my personal
growth as a person.
My goal is to instill this mindset in my students. I believe it is more beneficial to approach singing not as a
tedious practice, but as a profound discipline that contributes to their overall well-being and adds value to
their everyday lives. When we view singing in this light, it becomes an uplifting factor that goes beyond
technical exercises and becomes a source of joy, personal growth, and empowerment.

Private guitar lessons for every level: from basic chords to out of the box improvisationHey!
My name is Richard and I give private lessons to all levels.
For guitar, it is important that you can improve yourself in a pleasant environment in a fun way where your interests are central. Do you want to delve deeper into a certain style? Do you want to create your own sound on your guitar using amps, and pedals, ...? I can help you with all that!
Knowledge of solfège or music theory is not required, we can always discuss this in class if you wish, but that is certainly not mandatory ;)
I have been playing the guitar since I was 9 years old and for several years now I have been playing in professional bands with which I have been able to play on sugar rock, for example.
The lessons would take place at my home in Mol or via webcam. If necessary, we can always agree on something else.
Be sure to let me know if you have any questions and I will answer as soon as possible.
See you soon!
Richard
PS: my specified hours are a guideline, if this does not suit you, you can certainly send us a message and we will try to arrange something :)

Singing classes in Vienna for all age students and musical styles (Online/Offline)Dear students:
My name is Denise and I'm a professional singer with a singing master's degree from Catalonia's Music College (ESMUC) specialized in Historical Singing, Musicology and Music Education.
My experience runs mostly in early and classical music with an active performing life, nevertheless I also have the experience and knowledge of popular musical styles such as Latin-American folk, jazz and musicals.
As a docent or vocal coach I've collaborate with different academic institutions and private artistic projects, focusing mostly on international students or social integration programs.
I have years of experience teaching children, teenagers and adults in both Latin-America and Europe, therefore understanding different appreciation levels and needs.
My main goal is to help the student discover her or his voice while enjoying making music.
**Class suggestions and indications**
No experience is needed just bring your enthusiasm and favorite music.
Classes can be given either in English, Spanish, French or Deutsch.
There are no limit for styles, bring your favorite music and I will provide a safe environment for your personal and musical growth.
For Children I strongly recommend the 45 min class since their attention span and body development is different from an adult.

All my best,
Denise
