من أنا؟

DaPaul is a singer, songwriter and musician with a passion for performing. He writes with a contemporary lyrical content that reaches all listeners and connects with the world around him. In each song DaPaul writes, he captures a magic that resonates with each listener in a way that is entertaining and moving. DaPaul’s roots hail back to a Caribbean church in London where he found and nurtured his love for the piano and singing as a pianist playing choral hymns and Caribbean folk spirituals.

Influenced by gospel and also jazz, soul blues and pop, DaPaul has nutured his talent for songwriting by listening to artists like; The Winans, Hawkins Family, Andre Crouch, Commissioned, Thomas Whitefield, Ray Charles, Nat King Cole, Art Tatum, Erroll Garner, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, George Shearing, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Prince, The Jacksons, Kool & The Gang, Shalamar, Chic, Gap Band, and many more.

His formative years in the industry began in the mid 90’s as a session musician/backing vocalist recording and performing with UK/US artists; Eternal, Louise, MN8, Cleopatra, Alexander O'Neal, Jhelisa Anderson, Rhonda Thomas, Kloud 9, Des'ree, and Gabrielle. He has also appeared on various TV promos: Jools Holland, GMTV, National Lottery Live, VH1, TOTP, Montreaux Jazz Festival, and The World Music Awards.

Throughout DaPaul’s career he has always nurtured the craft of songwriting and in 2009 started on his quest to complete his debut album. This was an independent ongoing project which required tenacity, perfectionism, and determination. Well, it seems DaPaul achieved his goal when his album ‘Soulful Spirit’ received this review in 2013:

‘ We all know what is meant by saying: “It comes from the heart!”.DePaul's
‘Soulful Spirit’ is yet another fine example of a well-crafted set of musical compositions that intimately touch on the content of the heart. The music in
this debut album is of consistently excellent quality and speaks highly of the
calibre of the accompanying musicians who have contributed to its production. They all represent the finest the UK has to offer! From the gentle refrain of the opening track ‘She’s So Entertaining’ to the title track ‘Soulful Spirit’, this work is imbued with emotional sincerity. The UK has been blessed with singer/songwriters; LabiSiffre, Omar, the late David Lynden-Hall to name only three, who have succeeded in capturing our attention with the originality of their creative endeavor. We have yet another songwriter to add to the impressive roster. DaPaul speaks truly from the heart with ‘Soulful Spirit’.

DaPaul also released his 2nd album ‘LONDON TOWN’ in 2016.

PRESS RELEASE – 2016

The inspiration behind ‘LONDON TOWN’ by DaPaul is a story imbued with gratitude to a city that gave selflessly to a young teenager born in LONDON, who in the 1980s dreamt of being a musician and performer.

The last of 5 siblings, DaPaul was the only one born in the UK when his mother came to the UK in the early 1960s. As a single parent, DaPaul’s mother was a courageous woman who left Jamaica with only a basic college education, trained as a dressmaker with dreams of exploration, opportunities, and a better life for her family. Whilst raising her young son DaPaul and his two sisters she studied to be a nurse in the ’70s and worked in London for over 25 years and has unfortunately passed away in 2018 R.I.P.

As a young boy DaPaul was given piano lessons at age 6, and had a genuine interest in music inspired by his older cousins who all played the piano very well. His aspirations as a youth to become a musician/performer were realized by opportunities and support
provided by his church community and the London ILEA/GLC music programs for youth in the 1980s.

Vocal coaching develops a strong singing voice while boosting self-confidence, clarity, and inner harmony. A good coach helps you discover your unique voice, encouraging risk-taking and individuality, which enhances performance confidence. Clarity comes from understanding vocal mechanics, improving breath control and diction, allowing for better emotional expression in music and daily communication. Achieving harmony involves aligning vocal expression with emotions, fostering inner peace and fulfilment.

Refine your musical skills by studying the basics of solfege and singing and studying the maqams of Arabic music, and learn to play many oriental songs by various famous singers in the Arab world, both ancient and modern.

Experienced teacher of Oud and oriental Arabic singing for over 11 years, I am Lebanese and currently residing in Germany. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I taught at the Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and gave private lessons. In addition, I was conductor of the Loubnan Assalam oriental orchestra for over 5 years.

My recommendation for learning the Oud is to start with the study of notes and musical notation before tackling pieces. Although some students prefer to play songs directly, understanding the basics of musical notation allows for faster progress in the long run. With determination and hard work, significant progress can be made in a year, allowing one to play simple melodies.

Please feel free to leave me a message, I will reply as soon as possible.

الموسيقى ليست مجرد نغمات تُعزف، بل لغة داخلية، إحساس، وصوت يعكس ما بداخل الإنسان.
تعلّم العزف الحقيقي لا يبدأ من السرعة أو كثرة المقطوعات، بل من الفهم، التأسيس الصحيح، وبناء علاقة متوازنة مع الآلة.

هذه الرحلة الموسيقية صُمّمت لتكون مساحة دافئة، آمنة، ومنظمة لكل من يرغب في تعلّم العزف على الكمان أو إعادة تأسيس نفسه موسيقيًا بطريقة صحيحة، واضحة، وبعيدة عن الضغط أو التعقيد.

إذا كنت تبحث عن مدرس موسيقى أونلاين يقدّم تعليمًا حقيقيًا، عمليًا، وإنسانيًا في نفس الوقت، فهذه الرحلة مخصصة لك.

رحلة تعليمية قائمة على الفهم لا التقليد

الدروس هنا لا تعتمد على الحفظ أو تقليد الحركات فقط،
بل على فهم ما يتم عزفه، ولماذا، وكيف يمكن تطويره.

الهدف الأساسي هو أن:

تشعر بالراحة والثقة أثناء العزف

تسمع صوتك بوضوح وتتحكم فيه

تفهم الآلة بدلًا من مجرّد استخدامها

تتقدّم بوتيرة تناسبك دون استعجال

سواء كنت في بداية الطريق أو ترغب في إعادة التأسيس، يتم التعامل مع كل متعلّم كحالة خاصة لها احتياجاتها وإيقاعها.

التأسيس الصحيح من اليوم الأول

يبدأ العمل على أساس قوي يشمل:

Correct posture ووضعية جسم مريحة وطبيعية

Proper instrument handling منذ أول حصة

بناء التوازن بين اليدين تدريجيًا

تطوير التحكم في bow movement

استخراج tone متزن وواضح بدون توتر

كل خطوة يتم شرحها عمليًا وبأسلوب بسيط، مع تصحيح مستمر أثناء العزف.

فهم الموسيقى قبل عزفها

العزف الحقيقي لا ينفصل عن الفهم الموسيقي.
لذلك تشمل الرحلة:

Reading music notation بطريقة مبسّطة وعملية

فهم rhythm و timing بشكل واضح

تنمية musical ear وربط السمع بالحركة

إدراك العلاقة بين sound، finger placement، وbow control

هذا الدمج بين الفهم والتطبيق هو ما يصنع تقدّمًا حقيقيًا ومستقرًا.

تطوير الصوت وبناء الأسلوب

مع التقدّم، يبدأ العمل بشكل أعمق على:

Sound production وتحسين جودة الصوت

Balance بين اليد اليمنى واليسرى

التحكم في dynamics والانتقالات

التعبير الموسيقي بدل العزف الآلي

التركيز هنا ليس على كثرة التمارين، بل على جودة الأداء والإحساس أثناء العزف.

تقنيات العزف الأساسية والمتقدمة

جزء أساسي من الرحلة هو العمل المنظّم على تقنيات العزف التي تُكوّن العازف فعليًا، وليس فقط شكليًا.

يتم التدرّج في:

Vibrato
من فهم الحركة الصحيحة، اختيار نوع vibrato المناسب،
والتحكم في speed و width، للوصول إلى صوت دافئ، غني، ومعبّر دون إجهاد.

Scales
ليس كتمارين منفصلة، بل كأداة أساسية لتحسين intonation،
تثبيت finger patterns، وبناء ذاكرة سمعية وحركية قوية.

Arpeggios
لتطوير flexibility في اليد اليسرى،
تحسين transitions، والتوازن أثناء العزف عبر الأوتار المختلفة.

يتم ربط هذه التقنيات دائمًا بالعزف الفعلي والموسيقي، حتى لا تصبح تمارين جافة بلا معنى.

أسلوب التدريس

أسلوب التدريس قائم على:

الهدوء والصبر

الشرح الواضح بدون تعقيد

متابعة حقيقية وتوجيه مستمر

تصحيح عملي أثناء الدرس

بناء الثقة قبل أي شيء

لا يوجد ضغط أو مقارنة، بل دعم وتشجيع يساعد المتعلّم على التطوّر بثبات.

دروس موسيقى أونلاين بفاعلية حقيقية

التعلّم أونلاين هنا ليس بديلًا ضعيفًا، بل وسيلة فعّالة ومرنة تتيح:

تركيزًا كاملًا أثناء الحصة

تفاعل مباشر وتصحيح فوري

مساحة للأسئلة والنقاش

توجيه واضح للتدريب بين الدروس

مناسبة لكل من يبحث عن:

Online violin lessons

Music lessons online

Private online music teaching

Learning violin remotely بطريقة جادة ومنظمة

لمن هذه الرحلة؟

هذه الرحلة مناسبة لكل من:

يرغب في تعلّم العزف من البداية

يريد إعادة تأسيس نفسه موسيقيًا

يبحث عن تعليم موسيقي منظم وهادئ

يحب الموسيقى ويريد فهمها بعمق

من دون أي تقسيم أو تحديد عمري،
الأساس هنا هو الرغبة في التعلّم والالتزام بالرحلة.

الهدف النهائي

الهدف ليس فقط عزف مقطوعات، بل:

بناء أساس موسيقي قوي

التحكم الحقيقي في الصوت

عزف واثق ومتوازن

تطوّر مستمر بدون استعجال

علاقة ممتعة وصادقة مع الموسيقى

في النهاية 🌵🤎

الموسيقى رحلة شخصية جدًا،
وتحتاج إلى من يرافقك فيها بفهم، صبر، واهتمام حقيقي.

إذا كنت تبحث عن تعليم موسيقي أونلاين يجمع بين الاحتراف، الدفء، والوضوح،
فهذه الرحلة صُمّمت لتكون نقطة بداية حقيقية، أو إعادة انطلاق صحيحة.♡♬
