Saxophone lessons: Enjoy becoming an all-round musician (EN, NL, HB)

A partir de 58.64 $ /h

Enjoy becoming an independent & all-round musician!!

My aim as a Saxophone & music teacher is to give you the ability to develop skills that will make you enjoy "music-making" and love exploring all kinds of songs/musical pieces. Also, I give you tools to be able to cooperate with other musicians.

The methods I use are focused around goals that I create together with each individual student (and/or parents). Our goals are based on both the student's passion & musical desires together with the technical needs to make these desires sound! (control over the instrument, reading music notation, music theory, Improvisation, composition, ear-training and more). Music is a powerful language that everyone around the world can understand, but not all can speak yet...
Music-making involves Joy, curiosity, self-expression and a feeling of being a part of something bigger than yourself!

Practical Info:
- Normally, lessons take place at my location in Amsterdam. (call to discuss other options)
- I work with both kids (from age 8/9) and adults, (total) beginners, amateurs & semiprofessionals alike
- I play & teach: Soprano, Alto, Tenor & Baritone Saxophones (Flute & Bass-Clarinet for beginners as well)

** FOR PARENTS **
- Music making teaches you about how to build long-lasting dedication & successful work ethics that can be implemented throughout life, in any filed!
- Music teaches you how to express thoughts & feelings and can be important for a growth of a child.
- Music is a rich lifestyle, and opening a child to that world is a great gift that a parent can give to his/her child.

Acerca de mí

As a teacher:
Creating a fun, positive, at times funny and flexible learning environment together with a true drive and determination to music education is what I am all about as a teacher.
I can also be persistent when needed, but mainly about the way the student approaches his/her tasks, and not necessarily their results...

*Fun fact: I worked as a surfing instructor for many years!
Surfing taught me interesting methods for teaching that I use at times (before I moved to the Netherlands).

As a musician (highlights!):
- I won several prizes, scholarships & competitions including: The Dutch Jazz Competition, KVEMA competition and Keep an Eye Award (incentive).
- I played in: North Sea Jazz Festival, Bimhuis, Tivolivredenburg, Paradiso Amsterdam, Melkweg, Jazz In Duketown, Grachtenfestival, Jamboree Jazz (Barcelona), B flat Jazz club (Berlin), amongst others.
- Not only Jazz! I also take part in other musical projects including: Son Mieux (NL Pop) and Valvetronic (Brassband, Hiphop, Electronic/EDM).

Formación

Certificates:
- Finishing an MA degree in Jazz performance in Conservatorium van Amsterdam (AHK University)
- BA degree in Jazz performance in Conservatorium van Amsterdam (AHK University)
- Two-year BA degree Jazz performance program: “CJS” as part of “The New School” university, New York (graduated with "Cum-laude" title)

Early life musical education:
I started learning Saxophone at the age of 8 years old in Tel Aviv conservatory with the saxophonist of the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra. After a few years, I won several scholarships and prizes that led me to perform as a “young soloist” with a professional orchestra several times at the ages of 12 & 13 years old.

Even though I already liked Jazz music, I was mainly focused on classical music until the age of 18 years old. I added Jazz lessons alongside the classical ones at the age of 14 in the conservatory and went to a prestige musical high school in Tel Aviv (Ironi A for the Arts) where I joined the jazz department and eventually graduated with a cum-laude title for: “General & Artistic studies”.
