About Me
David is a Belgian pianist-composer, with Spanish roots, researcher, educator and speaker.

He has studied with maestros such as Irene Russo, Alessandro Cervino, Joop Celis, Julien Libeer and Peter Feuchtwanger – the Zen master of piano.

Piano
In 2001 he won the first prize of the Musicologica piano competition, Leuven, Belgium, as well as the first prize for the interpretation of the compulsory work Bachatelle by Peter Swinnen. He concertises all over the globe, mostly in Europe. In 2016 and 2017 he played in the oldest Spanish spa resort, La Encarnación, Los Alcázares, Spain, for a select audience of 100 people in an open patio. A special mention goes to a piano recital he gave in 2013 in Mozarte, Quito, Ecuador.

Composer
As a composer, David won the Best Soundtrack award at Ciné Public Festival (Belgium, 2009) for the movie El camino del deseo by Eva. He later formally studied composition with Jeroen D'hoe at LUCA School of Arts (Belgium, 2015).

David's music has an evocative visual quality. It speaks to the senses and is rooted in human experience, often with a Spanish touch.

Researcher
As a neuropsychologist, David understands that playing the piano is the most complete brain workout. He teaches brain friendly piano learning based on the latest neuropsychological research.

Jean-Jacques Eigeldinger's book Chopin vu par ses élèves contains among other things Chopin's independent finger exercises. Chopin's 4 touches will revolutionize your piano playing making even the hardest passages perfectly playable with ease and enjoyment.


Educator & Speaker
As a board member of the Peter Feuchtwanger Society, David helps organizing the annual symposium in Feuchtwangen, Germany.

Piano Exercises for Curing Playing Related Disorders and for Acquiring a Functional and Natural Approach to Piano Playing by Peter Feuchtwanger (1996).

For practical tuition, David has years of experience with the exercises and offers individual teaching and masterclasses throughout the year on a regular basis.

Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student.

My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.

In the lesson, the focus is on technique, speed, reading skills, coordination, all different styles, and what the student wants to play.
If you are struggling with speed or if you are just starting to play, good technique is very important. Moreover, a badly learned technique is difficult to unlearn later.
I can also help you with the purchase of new equipment.
The lessons take place at the student's home.

Have you always wanted to learn how to play the piano or want to understand more about how music works? Then I invite you to take lessons with me!

Whether you have never touched a piano before or already have some experience, together we will find the perfect teaching method for you. Beginners will start from the basics, while advanced pianists can build on their existing skills. Reading music is certainly not a requirement, but if you can, that is a nice bonus! Together we will determine what you want to learn or play, so that we can work specifically on your musical goals. Everything is possible!

Who am I? My name is Staf, and my passion for piano started in the sixth grade, in 2005. After my studies at PXL Music, I successfully completed my training as a pianist. In addition, I have been teaching music in secondary education for several years. Now I would like to share that experience and knowledge with others. In addition to piano lessons, I also provide support in music production with Logic X, so if you have any questions about producing music, you have come to the right place.

The lessons take place in Malderen, Londerzeel.

For questions or more information, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm looking forward to making music together!

Ever since I was little, I was passionate about music. I have been playing the piano for 10 years and have given several concerts.

Those who want to learn the piano, I adapt my course according to your preferences and tastes. If you don't know how to read the notes or you've never done music theory, that doesn't cause a problem. The most important thing in music is to have fun. I can teach you several genres of music such as classical music, jazz, film music, pop...

Volwassenen: Je wil graag piano leren spelen zonder 2 of 3 avonden per week in de muziekacademie te spenderen? Je hebt ooit al gespeeld en je wilt de draad terug oppikken? Volg les op je eigen niveau, wanneer het jou past.

Ik heb jarenlange ervaring als pianiste en pianolerares en maak daarbij gebruik van mijn eigen ontwikkelde en bewezen leermethode. Ik kan je verzekeren dat als je bij mij pianoles volgt je binnen een korte termijn zal vooruitgang boeken.

And that includes a good portion of fun! What are you waiting for?

I have been playing piano since I was 6 and I love to teach.
I graduated from the Conservatory of Kyiv, Ukraine and I have almost 8 years of teaching experience, primarily with kids and teens. I have played at BOZAR and various philharmonics.

Do you like music and want to enjoy your own performance of your favorite songs? I will be happy to help you achieve the desired result. Being able to motivate people is the most important work principle. So the process will be enjoyable and productive🎹🌻

I have been giving private music lessons and fortepiano for a long time. In addition to my classical music education in 2000, I obtained my bachelor's degree in psychopedagogy in 2006. This year I am interested in expanding my practice to include more students with special needs.
I learned about the different ways music can help students with special needs. It helps them express their emotions and develop their memories and self-regulatory skills.
It can show them strengths that they might not otherwise find during their school day. It can also open their eyes to a whole world of expression and beauty, enriching their lives.
I find out what works for a particular student, what distracts them, what motivates them, what helps them focus and sometimes just learn how to relate to them.
As a music teacher I enjoy working with the special needs students with autism and visual impairment

In piano lessons, we use the book method of Notus or Hal Leonard.
Everything is explained step by step and you gradually learn to read music and know the piano.

At the start of our lessons we'll take a look at what is important to you. What goals do you want to set, and what feels achievable and comfortable?
We set long-term goals of, for example, a year. Completely tailored to where you are at, right now.

During the lessons I am patient, motivating, encouraging, and complimenting. I'll point out what could be better, and also pay attention to how you can play more easily. And much more. Tailored to your needs and wishes.

Have you heard about the mother tongue method?
Children learn to speak their language through listening, imitation, and constant, loving encouragement. Why should we do things differently with music?

Together, we'll discover the piano in a natural and playful way. By listening, repeating, and growing step by step, we'll build a strong musical foundation. All of this in a loving environment with plenty of attention to creativity and artistic sensitivity.

As a parent, you actively participate in the lesson. After all, you become your little pianist's coach for the rest of the week!
