ABRSM Music Theory Grade 1-5 examinations Tutoring

50.6 $ /h

As a freelance musician, I provide high quality tuition in ABRSM Music Theory Grade 1-5 examinations. This class is designed around the student and starts preparation through the graded exam syllabus. As Grade 5 Music Theory is a compulsory examination for all ABRSM performance examinations past Grade 6, it is important that students start early and work alongside their instrumental studies.

I can also assist with pre University/Conservatoire Music Theory studies (Grade 6-8).

My goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed, and I assign homework and practice questions at the end of every session.

I am DBS checked, and previous practical opportunities and experiences have also enabled me to have a greater knowledge and understanding of Safeguarding, Child Protection, and Health and Safety Policies and Procedures in the work place.

The world of rhythm and drums from around the world attracts you... you are a novice or want to improve your skills, you are looking for workshops in private lessons or in groups,...

Welcome!

Multi-percussionist on stage and in the studio, experienced teacher and performing artist for over 25 years, I offer introductory, development and advanced modules in world percussion, for all audiences.
(individual, group and internship courses)

The educational objective is based initially on the acquisition of general notions in rhythmic solfege, various instrumental techniques and a repertoire of rhythmic-melodic vocabulary, subsequently supplemented by the exploration of polyrhythm and improvisation.

By listening to and reproducing more or less long and complex rhythmic patterns and cells, it will be a question of acquiring all-terrain bases, of recognizing and refining one's own playing dynamics, of understanding the principle of orchestration and of opening oneself to the incredible experience of trance.

Percussion lessons always involve several instruments and levels:

For all levels:
congas, bongos, bata drums, cajon, bendir and tär (frame drums), djembe, dundun,
drums
and minor percussion (accessories: shaker, triangle, karkabou...

And also for novices & intermediates:
Indian tablas

Point essentially addressed for a musical and psycho-sensory immersion work:

the roles of rhythmic instruments in contemporary, ethnic and scholarly music, and the metrics of each musical current.
the strokes specific to each instrument and a playful rhythmic solfeggio (visualization, learning and interpretation of rhythmic sequences by writing and / or voicing)
the poly-rythmie around current musics and world music (African, Caribbean, Indian and oriental traditions): simultaneous combination of rhythmic cells, sometimes of different size, to form a rich, well-rounded and harmonious phrase.
groove and inner pulsation (or inner partition)
guided improvisation and discovery of one's own interpretive fiber.
orchestration or arrangement of instrument families in an orchestra.
the song and the breath, the setting in voice and in space of the rhythm, to refine the sensory language of an adequate dynamic gesture.

I provide on request personal work media (CDs, scores, videos).

Apart from stage music, I also work for live shows (storytelling, theater, circus, pantomime, contemporary dance ...), documentary film and audio-visual.

I frequently intervene in musical awakening for early and middle childhood (maternity hospitals, schools, leisure centers) and also in specialized settings (day hospitals, IME) and at home, as part of mediation actions in art. therapy.

Hoping to share with you my passion for teaching and the melody of rhythm.

The drums are an extremely versatile instrument. The number of musical interpretation possibilities on this tool is endless. Whatever your level and style, my lessons will allow you to develop a solid technique and at the same time your musical awareness, in order to become a drummer at ease with any type of situation.

Percussion side
I specialize in Afro-Latin percussions, in particular Cubans and Colombians, I invite you to discover this fascinating world of traditional and popular rhythms that I was able to learn during my travels and studies in Latin America and France.

Starting from the fact that an Epic Intro of each song can determine the success of your artistic compositions, it is important to say that musical composition is a key tool to create and develop songs and concerts, through ensemble rhythms and their Syncopations you will learn to compose Epic Intros with the Afro-Cuban and Latin flavor. We will use percussion and choir instruments, body percussion and ideophone accessories (bells, Hierros, Kilin, etc.) from Drums BEAT I will teach you the Afro-Beat rhythmic marches that will give musical richness to your projects .

I offer personalized guitar lessons, offering 4 hours per month to support you in your learning. Each lesson is tailored to your musical tastes, as I firmly believe that fun is essential to learning faster and easier. At the end of each session, I send you a summary video so you can review the key points and continue to progress between lessons.

My schedule is flexible and adapts to your availability, so that learning remains a pleasant moment in your schedule. In addition, a special number is available to answer all your questions, guaranteeing you constant and responsive monitoring.

During your course, you will also have the opportunity to study up to two different musical styles, enriching your experience and skills. My training program is based on the Suzuki method, which emphasizes learning through instrumental practice before tackling music theory. This fun approach will allow you to express yourself musically while developing your technique.

Don't hesitate to take the plunge and discover the joy of playing guitar!
