    Cello lessons for all ages and levels. Individual lessons, cello group ensemble, chamber music lessons and/or music theory lessons.

    I am a cello teacher so If you are looking for cello lessons in Luzern, I would be glad to meet you.
    It doesn’t matter if you are starting to learn the cello or if you never played it. Music can be fun to learn and explore and I would love to show you that during my lessons.

    I am fluent in German, Portuguese, Spanish and English.

    The lessons can have the duration of 30, 45, 60, 90 or 120 mins. They can also be online, at my location or at the students location. According to each person needs and preferences.

    The main goal of these lessons will be to help you reach your expectations as a cello player and as a musician, either you want to delve into improvisation, methodology or just prepare for an exam I do my best to adapt my lessons to your needs. Also along the way I hope I can help you discover new works or music genres and also help you understand musical notation.

    The most important part is that you improve and learn how to express yourself through music regularly and have fun with that knowledge.
    My lessons and teachings are never the same. I don’t follow just a method or a “Cello Schule”. I insert a lot of different subjects, games and improvisation during lessons to make them more creative and fun.

    Every student has their individual needs and my teaching focuses on that. In the end I just want you to feel good playing the cello, develop your ear, sense of rhythm and find a way to combine your daily life with music learning in a creative way!

    I hope to meet you soon!

    Kind regards,
    Catarina Rodrigues

    Extra information

    To learn to play the cello, you will need your own instrument and bow. If you still don't have it I can help you finding one.
    I sometimes have to miss the class for concert out of Luzern or an eventual rehearsal but I always warn in advance.

    About Me

    I’m Ana Catarina and I am 23 years old and I was born in Almada, Portugal.
    I’ve started my musical studies at the age of 6 at the Artistic School of Music at the National Conservatory of Lisbon.
    As a complement to the study of music, I was part of the Children and Youth choir at the University of Lisbon, where I had the opportunity to participate in several tours and choir contests in Switzerland, Belgium and the Netherlands.
    Additionally, I practiced classical and contemporary dance.
    Since 2013 I had been part of a young theater group and since 2015 a band that won the National Band Contest in 2015.
    In my cello career I participated in masterclasses with several cellists such as Bruno Borralinho, Xavier Gagnepain, Gabriel Schwabe, Carlos Leal Cardin, Michel Strauss, Harriet Krigh, and obtained classes with Luís Sá Pessoa, Catherine Strynckx, Levon Mouradian, Filipe Quaresma and Jed Barahal.
    In 2015 and 2017 I played at the Young Portuguese Orchestra, with which she had the privilege to play at the Young Euro Classic at the Berliner Konzerthaus.
    I’m passionate about music, playing in chamber music, art and teaching.
    In the chamber music contest I won several prizes such as “Concurso Vila Verde” and “Jovem.com”, and give regularly concerts with my chamber music group “ Ono Trio “ (cello trio).

    I’m looking forward to share my passion with you!

    Isabel
    Violoncello lessons for children and adults (in German, English, Italian or Spanish)
    Learning music is about enjoying life. That's what a teacher told me when I was little, and I want it to be that way for the rest of the people, regardless of how much knowledge and freedom they want to achieve. Hello! My name is Isabel, I am a Spanish cellist. I love teaching, I also learn a lot from it, and I have experience teaching both children and adults in institutions such as the Music School of Lugano. In my lessons I focus on building a good physical and mental relationship with the instrument in order to learn how to handle it healthily and effectively. Always apply theory in connection with practice. I now play as an academic with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra. The price of the class can be adjusted to your capabilities. I can give lessons in German, English, Italian and Spanish.

    Marie
    Transverse flute and music theory lessons for everyone
    My name is Marie and I'm originally from Paris. I began my music studies at the age of 5 and then studied flute with F. Chatoux, the principal flutist of the Paris Opera. After receiving the highest study award at the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de Paris from N. Rozat, I joined P. Grehl's class in music at the HSLU Lucerne in the summer of 2018. In the summer of 2021, I completed my bachelor's degree with Pirmin Grehl in Lucerne and am currently completing my music education studies at Pirmin Grehl with a minor in orchestra under Sarah Rumer. I have won first prize twice in national competitions in France and Switzerland. I would like to pass on my passion and skills to everyone who wants to play this wonderful instrument, whether to support the teacher at the conservatory or for your own enjoyment. I adapt to each individual's personality, their musical wishes for the repertoire and their goals. I will accompany you as far as you wish, with fun with music, hard work and a good mood!

    Amira
    Clarinet lessons for all levels - beginner to conservatory
    My classes are aimed at people of all ages or levels and with an interest in any musical genre (classical, jazz, pop/rock, blues, folk and improvisation). I have 3 years of experience teaching clarinet, the lessons are personalized based on each student's interests. We set goals that we develop in the lessons. They are divided into three areas, the technical skills of the instrument, the training of the ear for the interpretation and the theory as a common language. I teach everything your heart desires in German, English and Arabic and look forward to exploring the clarinet with you.

    I teach my students how to play the cello and use it to express their inner voice. I'm currently doing my master's at Luzern Hoschule and I have already taught privately for 3 years and was also a professor at a music academy. I always try to pick the artistic side of my students and give them the tools to express themselves. Every class will be adapting to the student's struggles and evolution.

I have a classical education and can pass on the basics of this music. But the repertoire is not limited in classical music: if you feel like playing improvisation, jazz, folk, film or world music, you can do it in this course too.

    Denise
    Singing classes for all age students and different vocal styles (pop, folk or classical) Online or Offline in Vienna
    Dear students: My name is Denise and I'm a professional singer with a singing master's degree from Catalonia's Music College (ESMUC) specialized in Historical Singing, Musicology and Music Education. My experience runs mostly in early and classical music with an active performing life, nevertheless I also have the experience and knowledge of popular musical styles such as Latin-American folk, jazz and musicals. As a docent or vocal coach I've collaborate with different academic institutions and private artistic projects, focusing mostly on international students or social integration programs. I have years of experience teaching children, teenagers and adults in both Latin-America and Europe, therefore understanding different appreciation levels and needs. My main goal is to help the student discover her or his voice while enjoying making music. **Class suggestions and indications** No experience is needed just bring your enthusiasm and favorite music. Classes can be given either in English, Spanish, French or Deutsch. There are no limit for styles, bring your favorite music and I will provide a safe environment for your personal and musical growth. For Children I strongly recommend the 45 min class since their attention span and body development is different from an adult. Feel free to contact me in case of further questions. I hope to read from you soon and to make music together. All my best, Denise P.S. My schedule is mostly a suggestion since I'm constantly editing and adapting to a work schedule, please feel free to send me a message regarding your schedule needs and suggestions in order to give you the best service.

    Apollonia Maria
    Beginner to Advanced Lessons for Guitar Players for all ages
    After dedicating 14 years to mastering the guitar, I've developed a comprehensive understanding of guitar playing, encompassing both foundational techniques and advanced music theory. In these lessons, I'll be sharing the wealth of knowledge I've accumulated over this extensive period of learning. I will be covering a broad range of guitar techniques, including fingerpicking, strumming techniques, major and minor chords, power chords, barre chords, riffs, scales, finger warm-ups, practising any song of your choice, string bending, pull-offs, hammer-ons, harmonics, strumming patterns, and slides. All are provided with diagrams etc. For music theory, I will begin by covering the fundamentals, including notes, strings, and the musical 12-note chromatic scale alphabet on the guitar. As students progress, we will delve into more advanced topics such as tones, semitones, chord progressions, circle of fifths, scale formulas and chord terminology. Additionally, we will explore concepts like consonance and dissonance and pitch practice to develop relative pitch. (You have to be born with perfect pitch but you can learn relative pitch with practise!) Then advancing to jazz theory, we'll explore; jazz scale formulas, jazz chord progressions, swing techniques, major and minor 7th chords, major and minor 9th chords, dominant, augmented, half-diminished, diminished, sus2 and sus4 chords. And then jazz scales and the art of re-harmonising a song (changing the chords to jazz chords). All music theory will be intertwined with guitar practice as both can't be done without the other! One observation I've made while learning guitar through lessons is that information is often doled out incrementally, making it feel like a breadcrumb trail. Guitar knowledge and skills seem to be closely guarded and usually gatekept unless actively sought out. I strongly believe that the extensive knowledge I've acquired over 14 years of playing should be fruitfully shared in a more comprehensive and accessible manner, of course while being tailored to the pace of the students. In essence, I'm convinced that the depth of my understanding I've gained could be effectively conveyed and learnt within a two-year timeframe without including the time it takes to master the skill with practice, of course, I'd like to make it easier for people to learn the guitar and the theory behind it. I have also graduated with a distinction for my Music Performance and Production UAL Level 3 Course and have experience teaching guitar in London and Bristol before. The lessons will be taught in English so practising your English with me is also a plus, a foundational knowledge of English is required to take the lessons.
