About Me
I'm a bass and double bass player from Palermo, Sicily. In 2017 I moved to Tilburg, Netherlands, in search of bigger opportunities. I'm studying bass at Fontys Academy of Music and Performing Arts where I'm able to cultivate my love for all kinds of Arts and I'm in a position to exchange ideas and collaborate with many talented artists.I love to play in large ensembles, Big Bands, and Orchestras. Professional and versatile.
Education
I studied Electric Bass at Vincenzo Bellini Conservatory in Palermo and Double Bass at Brass jazz club.I studied Electric Bass at AMPA Conservatory Tilburg where I graduated in jazz Double Bass.
Experience / Qualifications
I approached the instrument in my early adolescence by playing in a few blues rock bands in my hometown. In my last years of high school, I got closer to jazz and started studying bass guitar at the conservatory V.Bellini of Palermo and at the same time double bass at the Brass group. There I started to play with a few jazz ensembles and simultaneously with a grunge band. In 2017 I moved to Tilburg, Netherlands, in order to continue my studies in jazz bass guitar at AMPA. In there I played in many jazz venues and events and had the opportunity to work with many international artists to create experimental performances.In 2019 I changed my major to jazz double bass and graduated in 2022.
Since then I played and recorded with some of the best jazz musicians in Palermo.

Cours de Piano (Classique/Jazz), Composition et Solfège , Bruxelles/Online en Italien, Anglais ou Français. Pour tous niveaux.Avec 7 ans d’expérience derrière moi et une quarantaine d’élèves ,je pense que meilleure méthode de cours se base sur une approche transversale, liant dès le début l’apprentissage corporel de l’instrument à l'intention musicale de l'élève. Comment exprimer telle ou telle émotion sur le piano avec notre corps ? Que l’on apprenne le piano simplement pour le plaisir ou vers une professionnalisation, cette approche s’adapte au désirs de tous. Adultes et enfants de tout âge sont les bienvenus, le premier cours étant toujours offert, chez moi sur un piano à Queue.
En dehors du Piano Classique et du solfège, on peut aussi aborder le Piano Jazz, l’improvisation, la composition et les traditions musicales Indiennes et Indonésiennes.
Avec les enfants, cela prend la forme d'une didactique adaptée à l'âge, ludique, avec laquelle je cerne un ou deux objectifs spécifiques à accomplir qui permettent de communiquer des notions complexes d’une manière simple. Apprendre par l’expérience du corps permet d’aborder toutes ces choses d’une manière dirigée et facilement accessible
La compréhension du rapport entre son et corps, c’est surtout comprendre que par l’apprentissage on unifie des éléments séparés. Les signes et les idées musicales qui se trouvent sur la partition, les mouvements respectifs de nos mains, les sons produits ensuite et entendus par nos oreilles forment un tout. C’est ce tout qui s’exprime comme musique, c'est-à-dire quelque chose de plus que ces éléments pris séparément. Comprendre ce rapport, c’est sentir plus nettement comment la musique nous touche et comment l’on peut toucher les autres avec la musique.

George
Guitar Lessons For All Levels From a Fourth Year Conservatory StudentHello! My name is George and I'm a fourth year student in jazz guitar at the Codarts conservatory here in Rotterdam, though my guitar journey began at the age of nine. I have been teaching a variety of students of different ages and backgrounds for the passed two years.
My aim as a teacher is not to overwhelm students with theory and sight-reading. Instead, I prefer to teach you practical ways to develop your own musical interests. If you are beginner struggling to achieve clear,clean notes or play a full song in tempo I can show you the most effective way to achieve rapid results. If you are passed the beginner stage I can help you with my specialised knowledge in jazz, pop, blues and rock. If you are compitent up to a certain level but can't move out of your comfort zone I can help you move onwards and upwards.

Charlie
Intermediate & Advanced Guitar Lessons from Charlie Finding your sound as a musician can be difficult, especially when you are unsure of what will help you progress to the next level of your playing. It can be very easy to get comfortable in playing the same scales and song pieces without seeing the path that continues onwards in your guitar learning journey - I personally know this feeling as it is something that I had to overcome myself.
In my classes, we will set clear pathways that focus on Technical and Stylistic Development before looking at the greater Contextual Elements that we must consider as musicians. Through this combination, my goal is to broaden your musical horizons and to bring out the best player that you can be.
My classes are built upon a foundation of mutual respect and encouragement, in a comfortable environment in which we can nurture your musical talents.
