Guitar / Bass / Ukulele / Theory
The course that I propose is BILINGUAL FRENCH / ENGLISH, as well as 2 BOOKS.
Age and musical taste are not restrictive when in the program, you can with qualitative daily work (not quantitative) quickly observe your progress.
Here the pleasure of playing music is put forward.
The kind of music you love most will be the focus of the course, their codes and secrets will be the focus of our study, that's what I want to share with you.
We can do technical lessons and simply learn together how to play one or more songs of your choice or mine, enrich your game with this approach and your repertoire!
(For example, We can re-arrange the pieces and make them more original by approaching the system (CAGED), and enriching their chords, resulting in new positions, new techniques and new sounds, using arpeggio techniques rather than strumming for 4-chord pieces, voicing and fingerstyle techniques, in short, expanding the instrument's playing fields and playing skills to keep progressing in your game and improve your rehearsals ...)
If you make a request, this program is obviously accompanied by the pleasure of learning more in theory and being able to directly apply new knowledge on its instrument and identify its common or rare use in the pieces discussed in class.
In this case, the theory is translated to be accessible to anyone, both for those who are connoisseurs and for those who discover everything from absolute zero.
The exercises, songs, and theoretical explanations offered throughout the program are organized in an order of progressive difficulty.
I wrote and produced 2 books of my method to learn the guitar and the music, that I sell to accompany my course and your apprenticeship in the best conditions and so that you can continue the course even at home and to review etc ... .
There is ONE BOOK OF COURSES containing all the theoretical and practical program of the year, as well as a BOOK OF EXERCISE on the ranges and the modes that you can obtain directly.

Electric and acoustic guitar techniques for begginers and for experts! Learn how to do solos and other techniques!
Now you have the oportunity to learn everything that you want about the techniques for the electric and acoustic guitars! For all the styles!!
I worked as professional musician for many bands in Spain, I have played in many places and pubs, I have done many concerts and I also have experience in the studios, creating and recording because I worked for a Spanish discography during 3 years.
I do lessons for all levels, and I can teach you all kinds of techniques and styles for the electric guitar in order to improve (scales, the greek modes yo improvise and make solos, tapping, swip picking, legatos...) and also for the acoustic guitar (air tap, tapping, percusive guitar, use different and original tunings to get new and rich sounds).
I think that there are a lot of people that play guitar very good, so I allways try to find something new to make me different to others, and that is what I want to show you.
I can make the lessons in English, French, Spanish and Catalan.

Learn the guitar in a different and intuitive way
This course is above all there to make you want to play the guitar, let it be a pleasure! It will be based on the practice of the instrument, on the understanding and role of the guitar. The theory will be based on the progress of the practice. Step by step, practice and theory will thus be complementary, and will necessarily be useful!
Have you always dreamed of being able to play the guitar? it's time to get started!
Miko
Guitar lessons -all styles- in Naninne (Namur) and surroundings
- About the course--
My method is to work the technique and the musicality at the beginning of the tastes of the student so that the objectives are always stimulating.
I try to develop as quickly as possible to the students, that is to say to make them able to target their own difficulties and to invent the exercises to solve them.
--About me--
I am a guitar teacher for over 15 years, privately, music school (Kraainem, Waterloo, Enghien) and internship (AKDT). I started the guitar 25 years ago and have never stopped. I went through all styles: from classical to pop songs and then to electric guitar: blues, rock and then jazz (with Frankie Rose). Later, I developed flamenco (with Karim Baggili), Brazilian (with Osman Martins), gypsy music and Eastern European music (with Tcha Limberger). I am also versed in gypsy jazz. I can give classes of any level and any style. I give the theory in parallel of what is worked so that it enters in a passive way. I have experience with children as well as adults. I also teach electric bass and ukulele.

Guitar workshops: personalized lessons / private training
Folk or classical acoustic guitar.
The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.
For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (…).
For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (…).
Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:
-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.
Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.
THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Learn electroacoustic composition - sound creation and sound techniques
Who is this workshop for?
For anyone curious about sound, all music, music in general,
who wants to manufacture, build, examine ... (from 12 or 13 years old).
Do you need to know music theory?
No. But familiarity with music of various styles can be of great help.
DJ? "Electro" music?
No ! We will not learn here to be a DJ or to compose “dance-music”,
“electro” music in the commonly understood sense, not even songs.
Do you need to know the computer?
It is better if it is, but learning can be done at the same time as musical research.
Is this course a software learning course?
No. I give the basics (only on Logic Pro X or Garageband) to be able to compose but I do not teach the deep use of software.
Is it necessary to have a computer?
Yes !
A "workshop" rather than a class?
The course takes the form of a practical workshop, listening sessions, criticism of works.
By computer?
Everything happens on a computer once sound elements of all kinds have been recorded. Editing, transformation, mixing on software designed for this.
No software required. The proposed route can be adapted to any multitrack sequencing software. The computer is only a tool, it is the composer who makes the music.
Practically what do we do?
The composer works “from the sounds” that he has most often recorded himself.
He chooses them, assembles them, deforms them, mixes them according to his project, at will.
of his intuition, his ideas and desires, gradually builds a music.
For those who wish and need it, exercises are offered which allow to approach at the same time techniques of realization
and precise musical proposals.
Composition / Invention
It is not a question of declaring themselves all composers, but of affirming that we can all ask ourselves composers' questions, with both seriousness and imagination.
To confront the game of a free invention.
What musical orientation? What style ?
This is a “musical research” process:
seek to invent a music beyond traditional values - note pitches, regular pulsations, instrumental timbres - without forbidding all that.
A “music of sounds”, in the broadest possible sense, a “music of
all sounds “as opposed to what one could obviously call too simplified“ a music of notes ”.
This choice, which apparently seems to shake up musical uses, is nevertheless part of a tradition of more than a century and rich in a repertoire that is too little known and which has had various names:
- Electroacoustic music
- Concrete music
- Acousmatic music
- Contemporary music
Finally, we each have a precious tool to never forget: our ear, and a fascinating and rewarding job to lead, questioning about oneself.
