Saxophone lessons for beginners, intermediate and advanced musicians
Are you a beginner?? No worries: no experience is required! 😁
I can teach you the basics to produce sounds with your saxophone: position of the embouchure (teeth, tongue, lips and vocal cords' position, an element often forgotten), fingerings, use of diafragma,...
After the first two lessons spent on the mouthpiece and neck for the sound production, we will immediately start to play some super easy duos together to practice your capacity of listening, pay attention to the other, ear training as well. I normally use the book of Peter Wastall (titled Learn as you play) as support, but it is not mandatory. There are plenty of good books btw!
Are you an intermediate / advanced student?? I am sure you can still improve in all the basics, but on a different level. I'll teach you the importance of the "voicing" (technique named by the american saxophonist and pedagogue Donald Sinta) to improve your sound production and projection as well as the capacity of correcting and improving the intonation. You can learn all about phrasing and music interpretation, from tonal music until contemporary atonal compositions. And still, you can improve your playing together, practicing in duo on different aspects like tuning, balance, interpretation, performance etc.
Book a lesson and try! If you are not happy, give me a feedback and go on. If you are happy, I will be happy to help you becoming a good musician!
It's better if you bring also a music paper (pentagram), you never know if I need to explain you anything more theoretical or if I need to write down anything else. If you don't have it, no worries. I'll give it to you!

Mélina
Private lessons of Violin and Musical Formation.Violinist from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, and the IMEP of Namur, I give violin lessons at all levels, all ages, from 5 years old for children.
With several years of experience in teaching the violin, my lessons are for everyone, whatever your desires. I adapt my method according to the wish as well as the age of the student, and starting an instrument as an adult should not be a brake.
Graduated in Musicology from La Sorbonne as well as from the ULB, I also offer support courses in Musical Training, History of Music and Analysis.
An instrument lesson usually lasts one hour. If necessary, I can cut the time between Violin and Musical Training / History.
My rates are 29/hour at my home (Schaerbeek), 35 if I travel.
Bastien
Classical-contemporary saxophone (Included: approach to improvisation, harmonic understanding and basic music theory)🎓 Graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels.
🎷 My courses mix practical aspects and theoretical notions, according to the interests of the student, to whom I adapt to offer them a course which really provides them with the elements which will allow them to quickly flourish in the musical field.
👨🏫 With 8 years of experience teaching non-profit organizations and in particular, I am used to training students of all ages, beginners and advanced alike.
🕺I am open to a large number of musical styles, current or old, focusing my artistic approach on an "all-musical" (by mastering the codes of harmony and melody, it is possible to understand and apprehend any new style of music)
🎶 I currently specialize in mastering the Saxophone, in a classical and contemporary repertoire.
But also, I am very open to improvisation, the practice of which I strongly encourage during classes, as well as live music such as jazz (swing, bossa, fusion, etc.).
Some parentheses are possible on electronic styles (D&B, Dubstep, Lofi, House,..)
✅ My final goal is to allow the student to express their ideas in music, and for them to evolve and flourish in what they truly like.
🐣 I take beginners without any knowledge of music theory.
I am available in:
* Brussels region.
* Region of Tournai occasionally.
* Online, via webcam lessons
