Ádám - Budapest46€

46€| PIANO TUTION | Practice-oriented music teaching from an internationally experienced concert artist

Trusted teacher: Regardless of your level of knowledge and age, I welcome applications from those who feel enthusiastic about learning music, be it an elementary school child, an enthusiastic newbie, or a dedicated adult who is just starting out in music. In an atmosphere full of attention, support and enthusiasm, I strive to give everyone the most effective help in their development. 🙂 I also go home to teach on demand, but I also welcome students in the 12th district on a beautiful, renovated Bösendorfer piano. *** My lessons are practice-oriented, in which musical skills development exercises, learning new works and creating one's own repertoire, improvisation exercises, and the establishment of the necessary theoretical / formal background are included. For all my students, I think it’s important that at the beginning of our work together, we find, first and foremost, the path that makes music learning a rewarding, successful process. *** I myself am currently primarily working as a concert organist and a doctoral student at the Academy of Music, Budapest. I graduated from the Liszt Academy Budapest and the Paris Conservatoire. I lived in Japan for a year, during which time I was able to fill the position of resident organist at the Kitara Concert Hall in Sapporo. My first solo album was released in 2020. In 2021, I won the First Prize and the Audience Prize at the 13th International Organ Competition in Toulouse, France. I regularly participate as a soloist in domestic and international symphony orchestras and choirs. I really like teaching and dealing with people. During my more than a decade of teaching experience, I have been able to meet a wide variety of students from the age of 6 to the age of 70. I have very good memories of all my students. I lived in Paris for two years, a year in Japan, during which I was able to gain serious insight into the education systems of both countries. Building on my studies at home, my international experience has had a decisive impact on me and has shown me many new directions in music teaching. I hope I piqued your interest. I look forward to hearing from you! Adam

Trusted teacher: Hello! I've been teaching nonstop for over 10 years, and I'd love to tell you what a class with me offers: 100% personalized approach: The first step is to define your goals. Learning for pleasure? Preparing for entrance exams? Or taking the professional leap? I'll adapt the methodology, curriculum, and even the repertoire to your goals. Dynamic environment (without losing rigor): Relaxed but demanding classes, where practical methods (and my irremediable sense of humor) prevail.

The goal: for you to make artistic decisions with confidence and feel music as your own. No stylistic biases: For me, all music is valid.

I balance classes with concerts and projects. Although you're my priority, I appreciate the occasional flexibility to reschedule (only when strictly necessary). If you like this approach, write to me! Learning music is an exciting journey, and I'd love to be your guide.

36€Improvisation for beginners and intermediates (any instrument)

Trusted teacher: Would you classify improvisation as composition or performance? Well actually it is both! When you improvise you are composing music on the spot, performing what you have made up at the same time as you have composed it. For many people improvisation is a scary word and having to improvise in a group or band is an alarming prospect. However, this really does not need to be the case. As long as you have a basic knowledge of how to play your instrument you will be able to improvise. Once you know the principle of how chords are formed you will soon be improvising with ease. The key to success is understanding chords. Once you know how chords are formed and know what notes make up a few chords you will be well on your way towards being able to improvise. We will, therefore, start by ensuring a firm knowledge of certain chords. After this we will progress to improvising a simple melody over the top of these chords. The next stage is to start using notes that are not in the chord. The process is then open ended with emphasis on developing the melody. If you play a keyboard instrument you will be able to improvise your own pieces and be able to entertain your friends at a moments notice. On the other hand if you play in a band or a group you will be well equipped to do a real 'jam' session. Whether you play a single line instrument (flute, saxophone, trumpet, violin etc.) or keyboard instruments, this class is for you.

Guido

I enjoy our lessons with Guido - he is a knowledgeable musician and a great teacher. He strikes a perfect balance between the student's comfort zone and the steps toward future growth, allowing you to learn slightly beyond it while still feeling ‘safe’. Appreciate his attention to various small details and the different examples he provides when a musical concept is difficult to understand. These are things that are hard to grasp and then fix on your own, and that’s the true beauty of in-person lessons. I wholeheartedly recommend him 🤌

Geza

As a beginner, I enjoy my classes a lot with Geza. He gives you the feeling that if you keep learning from him you will improve very well. That’s partly because he is very knowledgeable, experienced and partly because have so much patience with hist students. You can communicate with him very well and he has his own system tailored by what you want in music and how much you improve. I think if that’s what you are looking for in an instructor, Geza is the right man.
