< Learning Piano is not merely about playing the piano >

Before starting to learn the piano, it’s essential to recognize that :

'' What we are actually learning is "Music", but not only "Piano". ''

The goal of learning any instrument is to acquire the language of music, enabling us to express ourselves and enjoy music with others. Playing the piano is for creating beautiful sounds, not really for developing finger speed or strength. That’s the function of gym.

< Music is like cooking >

When we cook, to make roast beef tender, of course, it’s nice to have a tender heart, but without knowing how to control the temperature, the roast beef won’t become tender merely by our tender heart.

By only adding salt, the dish won’t be sweet. Similarly, simply playing or writing a C major triad chord won’t convey a sorrowful feeling.

To create the feeling we want, no matter how much sentiment we have in our hearts, to convey it via music, it needs to be translated into the language which the piano can understand, which means, how we press and lift the keys and pedals. Similarly, when we compose, it needs to be transferred into chords, and notes we write.


< Difference between an audience and a musician >

There is a common belief that a musician can make music with sentiment or feeling. While it’s partially true, the most essential thing is knowing ‘’How’’ to create the sound that conveys the feeling we want, rather than merely knowing ‘’What’' feeling we want to convey.

The understanding of the mechanism behind music is essential, as cooking, and that is the difference between an audience and a musician. As an audience, one can simply feel the music. Like a chief who knows how to create a specific flavor to convey, a musician knows how to create the sound which can convey the feeling we want. While knowing which feeling we want is great, it’s merely the first step. Your emotions are not too different from Chopin, Beethoven, Adele or Taylor Swift, otherwise, they can’t resonate with you. But they know how to create the sound that conveys the feeling they want to their audience.

< Course Content >

I consider my course to be a form of "Music Consultation" because it contains a wide range of subjects that are essential to a professional musician. While we focus on piano playing, there are also music theory, music history, instrument construction, ergonomics for performers, analysis of composer styles, composition, arrangement, recording, MIDI, computer music, the physics of sound, and more.
In avoid of confusion, let’s still call my course as "Piano Course”.

< Duration >

For each course, I will reserve at least 70 minutes in my schedule for you, including 60 minutes of class time and an additional 10 minutes for discussion and any questions you may have. This will ensure that your courses are not rushed by the next student. This ensures that there is enough time for you to solve your piano and music problems.

< Recording >

I highly encourage my students to record their progress. This can provide an objective standard for comparison and help you analyze your playing precisely. In my nine years of experience teaching music, I've found many students, including those advanced, already play certain sections very well, while other sections may not be not well enough. But they still try to improving those fine sections, while not aware of those weak sections.
Without an objective reference, it’s hard to distribute our effort precisely. This can lead to not only unstable performance, but also practicing without a precise goal can easily reduce enthusiasm. Recording your results and comparing them with those recordings you like on YouTube or Spotify can be an effective way to analyze your playing and set precise goals.

If you have a digital piano, I can help you produce a video of your performance for each session. This can be a tangible record of your efforts and you can share it with your friends and family via YouTube or other platforms.

From connection to production through and configuration and until the final result is obtained on social networks or music platforms, you will learn all the intermediate steps to spread your creativity in the connected world.

With specific expertise on Apple Logic Proc X and Ableton Live, the same principles are valid on any DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) as well as on the configuration that is specific to you.

I also advise you on the hardware (physical hardware / software) to buy according to your specific needs.

This applies to anyone without age barrier, as long as the will and passion is there ...

I’m a Music Producer with experience in sound design and composition for moving image.
I have been using Ableton as my main daw for 12 years for electronic music production, ranging from pop and experimental music to studio recording sessions.

The course is flexible and can be tailored to everybody’s needs.

You’re sincerely encouraged to contact me to share your ideas and tell me about your projects to find a way together to develop your work and extend your Ableton knowledge by doing so.

This class introduces the core concepts of film scoring and how music shapes story, emotion, and narrative in film and television. Students will learn how to support and move images through music, exploring timing, mood, theme, and structure. Lessons are tailored to each student’s interests and level, from complete beginners to advanced composers, and can focus on electronic, orchestral, or hybrid approaches.

The course also includes analysis and deconstruction of existing film scores to understand compositional techniques and storytelling strategies. Students will learn how to set up and optimize their digital audio workstation for film scoring, define personal creative goals, and work with industry-standard orchestral sample libraries and synthesizers such as Spitfire Audio, Orchestral Tools, and Cinematic Studio Series. Films with sound design and no music can be provided for hands-on scoring exercises, enabling practical experience working directly to picture.

Do you want to produce your tracks without getting lost in the technical details? I'll teach you Cubase and DAW software the way I learned it myself: without music theory, but with method and creativity.

The goal is not to apply formulas, but to develop a working method adapted to each project. This may involve analyzing a piece in progress, resolving technical or creative blocks, optimizing sound, or even organizing a Cubase session.

I offer concrete tools, attentive listening, and precise support to move your musical project forward in the right direction.

About the course:

Composition & Arrangement
Musical structure & storytelling: learning to build solid and coherent pieces (intro, bridges, choruses, etc.).

Creating guitar riffs and harmonies: rhythmic, melodic and stylistic work according to your level.

Text writing & vocal placement: rhythm, phrasing, accuracy of intentions.

Organization in the DAW (Cubase): clear structure, tempo, grids, dynamics.

Art direction & atmospheres: defining a unique and coherent sound universe, from the riff to the background texture.

Pre-production & Sound Design
Effective session preparation: choice of tools, sounds, project organization.

Custom guitar/bass sound creation: virtual amps, IRs, custom effects chains.

Modern recording techniques: layering, harmonies, double-tracking, multiple takes.

Sound sculpture & textures: asserting the personality of each instrument.

Integration of atmospheres and textures: cinematic, orchestral or electronic textures.

Advanced sound design: modulations, automation, unconventional effects.

Recording & Editing
Effective voice recording: artistic direction, placement, interpretation.

Fast & clean editing: assembly, alignment, natural corrections.

Collaboration & Communication
Knowing how to work with other musicians: conveying ideas, communicating with a mixer or sound engineer, maintaining an overall vision.

Mixing & Finalization
Clear and productive session organization: routing, buses, colors, naming.

Using the main mixing tools:

Compression: dynamic management

EQ: Frequency balance

Delay & Reverb: space and depth

Limiting: level control

Special FX (ring mods, filters, etc.): to go further with the texture

Export preparation: stereo, stems, separate tracks, formats suitable for mixing or mastering.

In summary
The goal is not to follow a fixed method, but to make concrete progress on a real musical project, regardless of the starting level.
The idea is to start with a desire, a sound, a riff, a feeling... and turn it into a solid, inspired, controlled piece.

This is what I have been doing for twenty years, and what I pass on here with rigor.

Online lessons are available. Cubase is recommended but not required. You can work with other DAWs or directly with stems/audio files as needed.

Online sessions are held using Muse Sessions, which allows us to listen, view, and interact with your music software in real time.

My approach is fully tailored to your goals. Sessions typically focus on finishing tracks, developing ideas, improving arrangement and mixdowns, sound design, and building a more confident and efficient creative workflow.

We’ll work directly with your own music wherever possible, using it as the basis for focused, practical progress. We can also analyse and deconstruct released tracks that inspire you, breaking down structure, sound choices, and production techniques so you can apply them to your own work.

Alongside this, I’m happy to share insight from my own projects and releases, offering perspective on creative decision-making, workflow, and long-term development as an artist. For those interested in sound design, sessions can cover synthesis, samplers, effects, routing, modular and practical ways to get the most out of the tools you already use, whether software or hardware.

I also offer guidance on the wider industry side of music, including preparing music for release, getting signed, developing an artistic identity, self-releasing, content creation, and composing for film and TV.

These sessions are best suited to committed beginners through to intermediate producers who want clear feedback, direction, and momentum in their work.

Lessons are tailored to each student’s interests and level, from complete beginners to advanced composers, and can focus on electronic, orchestral, or hybrid approaches.

The course also includes analysis and deconstruction of existing film scores to understand compositional techniques and storytelling strategies. Students will learn how to set up and optimize their digital audio workstation for film scoring, define personal creative goals, and work with industry-standard orchestral sample libraries and synthesizers such as Spitfire Audio, Orchestral Tools, and Cinematic Studio Series. Films with sound design and no music can be provided for hands-on scoring exercises, enabling practical experience working directly to picture.

Do you want to produce your tracks without getting lost in the technical details? I'll teach you Cubase and DAW software the way I learned it myself: without music theory, but with method and creativity.

The goal is not to apply formulas, but to develop a working method adapted to each project. This may involve analyzing a piece in progress, resolving technical or creative blocks, optimizing sound, or even organizing a Cubase session.

I offer concrete tools, attentive listening, and precise support to move your musical project forward in the right direction.

About the course:

Composition & Arrangement
Musical structure & storytelling: learning to build solid and coherent pieces (intro, bridges, choruses, etc.).

Creating guitar riffs and harmonies: rhythmic, melodic and stylistic work according to your level.

Text writing & vocal placement: rhythm, phrasing, accuracy of intentions.

Organization in the DAW (Cubase): clear structure, tempo, grids, dynamics.

Art direction & atmospheres: defining a unique and coherent sound universe, from the riff to the background texture.

Pre-production & Sound Design
Effective session preparation: choice of tools, sounds, project organization.

Custom guitar/bass sound creation: virtual amps, IRs, custom effects chains.

Modern recording techniques: layering, harmonies, double-tracking, multiple takes.

Sound sculpture & textures: asserting the personality of each instrument.

Integration of atmospheres and textures: cinematic, orchestral or electronic textures.

Advanced sound design: modulations, automation, unconventional effects.

Recording & Editing
Effective voice recording: artistic direction, placement, interpretation.

Fast & clean editing: assembly, alignment, natural corrections.

Collaboration & Communication
Knowing how to work with other musicians: conveying ideas, communicating with a mixer or sound engineer, maintaining an overall vision.

Mixing & Finalization
Clear and productive session organization: routing, buses, colors, naming.

Using the main mixing tools:

Compression: dynamic management

EQ: Frequency balance

Delay & Reverb: space and depth

Limiting: level control

Special FX (ring mods, filters, etc.): to go further with the texture

Export preparation: stereo, stems, separate tracks, formats suitable for mixing or mastering.

In summary
The goal is not to follow a fixed method, but to make concrete progress on a real musical project, regardless of the starting level.
The idea is to start with a desire, a sound, a riff, a feeling... and turn it into a solid, inspired, controlled piece.

This is what I have been doing for twenty years, and what I pass on here with rigor.

Online lessons are available. Cubase is recommended but not required. You can work with other DAWs or directly with stems/audio files as needed.

Online sessions are held using Muse Sessions, which allows us to listen, view, and interact with your music software in real time.

My approach is fully tailored to your goals. Sessions typically focus on finishing tracks, developing ideas, improving arrangement and mixdowns, sound design, and building a more confident and efficient creative workflow.

We’ll work directly with your own music wherever possible, using it as the basis for focused, practical progress. We can also analyse and deconstruct released tracks that inspire you, breaking down structure, sound choices, and production techniques so you can apply them to your own work.

Alongside this, I’m happy to share insight from my own projects and releases, offering perspective on creative decision-making, workflow, and long-term development as an artist. For those interested in sound design, sessions can cover synthesis, samplers, effects, routing, modular and practical ways to get the most out of the tools you already use, whether software or hardware.

I also offer guidance on the wider industry side of music, including preparing music for release, getting signed, developing an artistic identity, self-releasing, content creation, and composing for film and TV.

These sessions are best suited to committed beginners through to intermediate producers who want clear feedback, direction, and momentum in their work.
