Saxophone and improvisation lessons in jazz style.

From 36 € /h

I offer saxophone lessons to beginner saxophonists and to already experienced saxophonists.
I also give lessons in improvisation, theory, harmony, music theory and composition.
In short, everything you need to play and improvise in the style of jazz.
During improvisation classes in my music studio, I use accompaniment instead of a jazz rhythm section (piano, bass, and drums). This effectively prepares students for playing in a real band later on.

In addition to saxophone lessons, I can give piano lessons as a second instrument for saxophonists, which is essential in order to understand and hear harmony.
I give lessons at home in Paris in the 16th arrondissement between the Iéna (line 9) and Boissière (line 6) metro stations.
For students who are unable to attend classes in person, I can provide video lessons via WhatsApp.
My job as a teacher is declared. Students can obtain invoices.
I accept students with irregular schedules and availability.

Extra information

I mainly play in small jazz and Latin jazz groups.
I also play regularly in big bands.
I trained at the Conservatoire du 7ème Arrondissement in Paris, at the American School of Modern Music, at the ARPEJ jazz school and at the ISAAC Latin jazz school.
If you contact me, I can send you links on the internet where you can listen to me playing the standards and my own compositions.

I propose saxophone lessons for all ages, all levels, and in all styles. I have been running private lessons for 25 years, as well as giving workshops and master classes in colleges and universities. During a lesson I encourage the student to work on: posture, breathing and the position of the mouth (embouchure), helping the projection of sound; the development of the tone; i teach the student how to phrase and play a beautiful melody; techniques of improvisation; understanding harmony; having confidence in his/her playing skills; techniques of listening and interacting with the rhythm section; learning new songs and experiencing different styles of music; Introductions to key saxophonists. Above all i encourage my students to have fun with music! Course locations: Paris 13th and neighbouring arrondissements. Languages: French, English. I have been working as a Professional for 25 years, I have toured all over the world. I am also a composer with six albums under my name.
I'll be very happy to meet with you!
Musically, Rob

My goal is to make people of all ages and levels learn not only playing an instrument but how can music help them in their everyday life.
I am an Albanian violinist, with a Bachelor degree in Classical Music (Violin) and Musicologie in Sorbonne University.
Over the years, my experiences with different youth and professional orchestras all around Europe have made me understand that music is important not only for professional musicians but also for everyone.
I can teach in English or French and of course in my mother tongue Albanian.

Hello,

I like to transmit and exchange with my students.
Seeing them understand and progressing is essential and very rewarding for me.

My lessons are based on an academic method focused on learning music theory and instrumental practice.
I bring a specific method adapted to the profiles of my students (age, availability, tastes, motivation, "anti-music theory").
I try to make my students independent, help them develop their listening skills, their sense of rhythm and transmit to them an efficient working method.

All styles, all levels: pop, rock, funk, jazz, blues, soul, reggae, latin

All levels, all styles of music
Men / Women / Children

“90% of my students are able to play up to 100 songs after the first lesson.”

Drumming should be a fun experience. No time wasted trying to learn music theory or reading. We get straight to the point, playing music the way we want to. We'll get past the beginner level in just 2 or 3 lessons, then move on to more advanced things.

The lessons are designed to connect as much as possible with music and passion, and thus be able to express it creatively through the instrument. The courses are intended for everyone, including beginners and children.

BEGINNERS:
Intuitive and musical approach to the instrument
Essential Rhythms of Popular Music
Basic techniques and autonomy
repertoire

ADVANCED:
rudiments and their application
Advanced independence
Work on grooves of different styles: Jazz, Soul, Funk, Blues, Latin Improvisation
Understanding the harmony of music and other instruments Repertoire
Other advanced concepts
How to work professionally

We will seek creativity and enjoyment through music, to connect in the most inspiring and musical way. All of this creates a solid foundation for playing the instrument and routines that work on concentration, technique, and, above all, creativity.
The lessons take place in a music studio. There is also the possibility of giving lessons at the student's home.

Graduated from the American School of Modern Music, I offer bass lessons for beginners, intermediate or advanced levels looking for ways to work. I adapt to everyone's desires and favorite styles, whether it's Hip-hop, Jazz, Blues, Pop, City Pop, Rock, Punk, Funk, Metal, World, etc. . My goal is above all to accompany you in your musical adventure. Also I can help you prepare for auditions (for a group or a music school), improve your phrasing, develop your game or simply teach you your favorite songs.

Classes can take place at my home, yours or via Skype. I offer lessons of 1h, 1h30 and 2 hours according to needs and desires.

Having several basses (4 strings, 5 strings, acoustic, fretless) I gladly lend an instrument to students who come to my home, which can be practical if the lesson takes place after work or study hours. For lessons at home, I bring an ABY pedal that allows two people to play on the same amp, making the lesson more practical and more fun!

Thank you for reading this announcement and have a nice day,

I am a passionate guitarist and guitar teacher with over 10 years of experience teaching guitar to beginners and intermediate players. My teaching approach stems from a deep love of music, from transcribing solos and developing a personal style to composing and arranging for an instrumental album currently in production. For me, teaching guitar is much more than simply transmitting techniques: it's about sharing a vision of music and guiding each student toward their own artistic expression.

🎸 Chords, rhythms, picking, fingerstyle and playing techniques
🎵 Music theory applied to the guitar, in a simple and progressive way
👂 Ear training and introduction to transcription
🎶 Varied repertoire: pop, rock, folk, blues and acoustic styles
🌍 Courses taught in French or English
👶🧑🧓 All ages welcome: children, adults and seniors

My teaching approach:
I firmly believe that every student is unique. My lessons combine technical rigor with creative freedom, so you progress both as a guitarist and as a well-rounded musician. Beyond technique, I help you develop your musical sensitivity and confidence on the instrument.
Alongside teaching, I continue to perform, record and actively work on my own musical projects, which ensures that teaching is rooted in real and living musical practice, and not in theory alone.

Why choose my courses?
✅ Fully bilingual profile: courses in French or English
✅ Available in person in Paris or online (throughout the French-speaking world)
✅ Guaranteed quick response: I promise to reply to every message as soon as possible
✅ Total flexibility: availability adapted to your schedule

For students preparing for entrance exams to the higher conservatory or a diploma in auditory education/musical training or even for students wishing to refine their auditory skills.

I was able to develop exercises and work on auditory analysis in my piano and music training classes, and I prepared several candidates (with good results!) for the music training and auditory education tests as part of access to a higher education center.

Always in joy and good humor, with the hand of rigor and study, I will be delighted to accompany you on this musical journey.

*30' and 45' formats only available in Visio.

My name is Loris, I'm 22 years old, and I'm a student at the Paris Conservatory (CNSMDP) in the jazz department. I've been playing saxophone since I was 14 and previously studied in Germany, where I'm from. Since I started playing, I've performed in various big bands and solo projects, such as the South German Youth Jazz Orchestra. For my own projects, I've toured throughout Germany, France, and the Netherlands. I also taught for a long time in Germany at a music school, where I had students ranging from 11 to 65 years old, and I thoroughly enjoyed teaching all levels and musical styles! Having gained considerable experience, I know what's important for each student and how to best achieve their goals and, above all, make learning enjoyable! I specialize in jazz, but I'm open to anything!

See you soon, I hope.
Loris!
