    Singing Lessons/Cours de Chant

    Hello! My name is Olivia, and I am an American opera singer now based in Paris! I give 45 minute and hour voice lessons at a studio in Paris teaching all different styles of music to students of all ages and levels in both English and French. While I have extensively studied classical technique, I also have a performance certificate in musical theater and have recorded pop and country songs. I teach a classically based, healthy technique that can be applied to sing any style of music. I also teach the basic ear training, music history, and music theory to give students a greater appreciation for music! I specialize in beginners.

    About Me

    I strive to provide a professional yet friendly environment where students feel free to express themselves and find their true voice. My classical background has given me a very technical and detailed education, and consequently I am able to find healthy ways of singing virtually any style of music. Each student learns differently, and I continually search for new ways of explaining the technical aspects of singing while making the lessons fun. I work on goals with each student so we can track their progress together, and tailor each lesson to each student's wishes - be it general music appreciation, a desire to be able to sing for fun comfortably, or perform for their upcoming show. I generally devote a portion of each lesson to more general music education including basic music theory, music history, and ear training...all skills which both make the student a better musician and enrich their musical experience. I teach in French, German or English.

    Fernando
    Violin and viola teacher (Français - Español - English )
    "Talent is developed through practice..." - Shinichi Suzuki I have been giving violin lessons for 10 years, my working method is based on the Suzuki method, the mother tongue method. A child first learns to speak before learning to read and write. Language learning is done mainly by listening and mimicry. For music, it's the same, you must first master the basics of the instrument before knowing how to read notes and scores. Whatever the age of the student, beginner level or confirmed, I offer private lessons of violin and viola. No knowledge or musical notion is necessary beforehand, the theoretical achievements are made as and when the discovery of the instrument.

I am very serious, reliable and passionate.

    Music theory workshops and lessons for beginners average and advanced.
    Currently studying music theory at an advanced level in the conservatory of Paris, I give lessons for everyone. I started my musical studies at seven years old in Lorraine where I got my music theory certificate in 2020. In 2021 I entered Paris' conservatory and progressed to where I am today. I has been more than ten years that I study musical theory and I am aware of the difficulties people can face learning it, especially children that tend to see it as boring. I discovered many different aspects of this subject and I would like to teach them to others while adapting to their needs and wishes. I can use the voice, the body, an instrument, some reading and lots of listening to develop the musical personality of students. Don't hesitate to ask me for any other informations!

    Louise
    Music theory / musical awakening
    Former student in preparatory class literary music option at Lycée Fénelon of Paris, currently music student, master at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris (CNSM), I teach music theory and viola da gamba. I have a great sense of organization, I know how to find work methods that correspond to each student so that everyone learns in the most effective way possible. I regularly replace one of my teachers of viola da gamba in a conservatory in the Paris region. I am told very pedagogue. I really like children. I know how to be friendly, friendly, and set limits for the student to learn in the best possible conditions. I have always loved solfeggio and think that this subject can be taught in a fun, interesting way, in connection with the instrumental practice of the student. The musical awakening is a first approach of the music which allows the child to anchor the rhythm in his body, to develop his ear and his creativity through the improvisation, while beginning to learn the first notions of music theory . The group's musical awakening lessons make the child grow in his relationship to the other, by encouraging him to listen to and respect the interventions of other children, to react to these different propositions. I obtained my Bachelor's degree with Distinctions at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in June 2015, with a result of 16/20 for solfège.

    Lyrical singing lessons for all levels in Paris
    As a lyrical singer I had the opportunity to perform at an international level but also to continue to teach my profession. My "teacher creed" In vocal pedagogy, I would say that I always find myself "face to face" with a new and unique instrument - the voice: each student is unique and that is why we must look for individual didactic and methodological tools. This means that I am able to lead a singing lesson in different ways so that I can find the vocal exercises or personalized and appropriate pieces of music to get the most out of each student. My vocal technique is based on breathing exercises, awareness of the whole body as an instrument, knowledge of the biological principles of breathing as well as the artistic meaning of breathing. My basic goals are: to maintain a feeling of high position while singing (singing with resonance), binding purely distinctive vowels (legato singing), developing the range of a voice step by step and balancing the vocal registers. While "building" the voice, I take the assessment and development of a student's personality seriously, which I think is undeniable in arts education. It also consists in knowing the appropriate repertoire according to the vocal development of each student.

    Raphaël
    CLARINET LESSONS (Classical/Klezmer/Jazz) PROFESSOR GRADUATE FROM THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF MUSIC AND CONSERVATORY OF PARIS
    Welcome :) If you want to learn the clarinet, you've come to the right place! I am a professional clarinetist myself, graduated from the Royal College of Music in London (Global No. 1 Institution for Performing Arts). I am currently pursuing my concert career between Paris and London. Between us the choice to become a clarinetist is admit the original! But why this instrument rather than another? I was hesitant myself when I started. I found the sax.. “cooler”. But I finally fell in love with the clarinet. This instrument offers an incredible variety of repertoire! First of all Classical Music: The clarinet developed at the same time as Mozart. The composer was immediately seduced by this new instrument with its soft, pearly sound; he fell in love with her and wrote a magnificent concerto for her (one of the most beautiful ;)). Subsequently, composers such as Weber, Schumann and Brahms will deploy all their knowledge and sensitivity to make the clarinet sing. Jazz: Since the appearance of this new genre, the clarinet reigns as a diva among instruments. Gershwin dedicated a legendary solo to him in “Rhapsody in Blue”. The instrument shines with this effect of its own: the glissando (sliding from one note to another in a progressive and continuous manner). Subsequently, clarinetists such as Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Buddy de Franco... will forever mark the history of Jazz with their wild solos. Klezmer: If you don't know this genre, don't wait. Open Spotify or YouTube and type “Giora Feidmann Let's be Happy”. Sorry for your neighbors. You won't be able to resist the urge to dance and jump around. The clarinet, through the variety of sounds it can produce, perfectly imitates the modulations of the human voice: laughter, crying, singing... How not to fall instantly in love with this instrument which allows such a wide range of expressions? I have been teaching for 6 years now and enjoy sharing my passion for music on stage as much as in a more intimate setting during a private lesson. I had the opportunity to refine my pedagogy throughout my various experiences in teaching and find simple and effective methods to allow the student to progress quickly. My career as a classical conservatory musician and Jazz/Klezmer concert performer gives me the opportunity to offer a varied education. I guarantee that in a month you will already be performing your first track in front of your awe-inspiring family! I offer private lessons of Clarinet and or Solfège for children, adults, all ages from beginner to intermediate / advanced level (1st cycle / CEM / Specialized cycle). My teaching is based on a personalized musical follow-up: Discovery - Methodical learning - Initiation to improvisation, Jazz or Klezmer - Perfection -THE PLEASURE OF PLAYING- Music is a game. Despite the difficulties that the student may encounter in his progress, it is very important never to lose this fundamental dimension. Mozart was also of a very mischievous nature and it was said of him that he was an eternal child! My goal as a teacher is above all to transmit a passion for music. Learning an instrument can be long and tedious and the approach of some conservatory teachers is sometimes abrupt and academic. For my part, I favor a playful teaching adapting to the capacities of each one. My experience as a concert performer in the Jazz/Klezmer group Kanaï Trio, of which I am the founding member, offers me the possibility of extending my teaching to improvisation and to different musical styles (Jazz, Traditional Yiddish/Klezmer Music, Eastern Europe, the Balkans). My classical music studies at the Conservatoire Régional de Paris allowed me to develop my instrumental technique but also my knowledge of musical analysis, music theory, singing and music history. I consider these theoretical fundamentals essential to the study of an instrument. The student must above all understand the music before being able to flourish in the interpretation of the piece. One of the common difficulties for beginners or intermediate students is not being able to manage the air well, running out of steam quickly and thus losing the pleasure of performing an entire piece. In reality, the clarinet does not require the endurance of a marathon runner, but just an appropriate breathing technique: I have therefore developed a method based on breathing exercises, the search for good posture (specific to each pupil) and physical relaxation (with the elimination of tensions and parasitic gestures). The student will also have simple and effective technical tools to quickly overcome difficulties (placement of the mouthpiece, precise positioning of the fingers, etc.). See you soon ! :) PS. : -Possibility of traveling to your home (modular increase depending on travel time) LEZIONI IN ITALIANO REED POSSIBILI.

    Singer graduated from the CRR in Paris and a bachelor's degree in Montreal gives classes in Paris or via Skype! Find your "voice": develop your own
    My teaching method is between a technical work, on voice and breathing; but also on a process of understanding his body and his voice. I use some psychological tools, which I use in Art Therapy, to help the student to better understand himself, and to raise awareness of his voice. I try to focus each course on a specific element, to develop the student in a logical and pleasant process. *** Work on the voice in a general way: by singing, speaking, learning to project one's voice through different emotions, developing one's relationship to one's voice and one's body, reconciling oneself with oneself; all to find his "voice" *** Via Skype, ZOOM, or at my home (Paris) My teaching method is between technical work, on voice and breathing; but also a process of understanding our body and our voice.
