Elena - Milan, Italy$44

$44Music Theory and Ear Training Classes - Teoria e solfeggio

Trusted teacher: Hello! Being a singer and a singing teacher, many many times I have found myself in the situation of having to work on ear training, or solfège, or music theory... or all the above listed! Approaching music and having no clue of these elements can totally be intimidating and off-putting, but in 2023 I feel like it’s a pity that these subjects still are looked at with such a fear. I want to prove to you that building this basic knowledge can be easy, accessible, and not heavy at all! My program is not fixed: I’ll build it on your specific needs, whether they are preparing an exam, curiosity, or getting better at pitch matching... we will discuss it together. I have many books and materials, and I honestly prefer to draw blackboards by myself a lot of times. Unless you want to, I won’t ask you to buy any material, so the only cost that you will have to sustain is for the time of the class.

Nicolas - Argentina$23

$23Music Composition, Harmony and Orchestration – From Concept to Score

In my lessons, we work deeply on harmonic analysis, counterpoint, and musical structure across the full spectrum of academic music from all historical periods, as well as jazz and popular music. A central pillar of the classes is the analysis of composers, which we approach as an essential tool for understanding musical language and developing a personal creative voice. Depending on the student’s interests, analysis may range from Mozart to Debussy, or from Beethoven to Bartók, among many others. A strong emphasis is placed on counterpoint from all historical periods. I assist students with conservatory-level exercises, and we study contrapuntal techniques through the analysis and practice of Bach’s inventions and fugues, Renaissance counterpoint, and 20th-century contrapuntal approaches. In composition classes, the content is fully adapted to the student’s creative needs and goals. The focus is on developing practical creative tools that support original thinking, with the clear objective of composing original pieces of short, medium, and long duration, tailored to each student’s artistic direction. For orchestration, we explore writing techniques for a wide range of ensembles, including chamber music, full orchestra, and popular music formations such as quartets, quintets, big band, and tango orchestras. Particular attention is given to instrumental color, balance, articulation, and idiomatic writing. As an Argentinian composer and educator, I offer a specialized perspective on tango, including in-depth analysis of composers such as Astor Piazzolla, as well as composition and orchestration techniques related to tango. Due to the geographical and cultural proximity, I also offer classes focused on Bossa Nova, exploring its harmonic language, rhythmic structures, and stylistic characteristics. Lessons are suitable for students at different levels, from beginners to advanced musicians, and are tailored to individual academic, professional, or creative goals.

$56Docente di conservatorio e pianista offre lezioni di pianoforte a studenti di qualsiasi livello

I graduated from the Palermo Conservatory with Professor Dorotea Cei, student of Lazar Berman, Clive Britton (student of Claudio Arrau) and Roberto Caglieri (student of Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli). In addition to a Master's degree in musical psychology in Romania, I also obtained a Master's degree in Advanced Music Performance at the ESMUC in Barcelona with Professor Vladislav Bronevetzky (student of Elisso Virsaladze). I have participated in several Masterclasses, including an annual course with Professor Roberto Plano and thanks to which I was able to acquire valuable teaching experience. Experiences that proved useful for teaching as a piano teacher in Bachelor and Master courses were at the Conservatory of Trapani “A. Scontrino”, at the Conservatory of Ferrara “G. Frescobaldi”, at the Sassari Conservatory “L. Canepa” and at the Palermo Conservatory “A. Scarlatti”. During the lessons I attach great importance to artistic interpretation, emotional and psychological management during the study phase, before and during a performance, precision and respect for the score and the efficiency of the technique applied to the style and historical period. I guide students by providing effective and optimizing study and learning strategies, also correcting factors such as posture and the correct use of the body at the piano and on the piano, the physiology of the hand and other factors such as economy of movement. All of these are factors that I have acquired from the great Russian schools from which I come directly and indirectly, with a very empathetic and organizational side I am able to give very satisfactory results to my students. I recently collaborated as global professor of the Piania Conservatory in South Korea (Seoul) with currently virtual masterclasses and seminars and piano competitions. I recently held masterclasses at the Edward Said Conservatory of Ramallah in Palestine at the college of arts and the Philharmonic theater of Targu Mures in Romania, at the University of Music of Skopje and Sarajevo, at the University of Music in Kaunas (Lithuania) for various Italian associations including the Umbria Classica Association. I am often designated as commissioner in some piano competitions such as, for example, the International Henryk Mercel Piano Competition in Poznan organized by the Polish Calisia Art Foundation, the Malta International Piano Competition and others.

Emidio

Emidio is a fantastic saxophone teacher. He provides you with the feedback you need to learn many things at the same time: He gives you tips for a good embouchure and shows you how to blow a proper tone. He teaches you how to play in tune and introduces you to tone articulation on the saxophone, when you are ready for it. He guides your own practice efficiently, so you can be certain to not loose time. In addition, you learn to read notes and a lot about music in general. Emidio is a kind, patient, supportive and encouraging saxophone teacher, who is ready to reply to whatever question you throw at him. Emidio communicates well and is clear. His classes are fun, inspiring and intense. I will continue my musical journey with Emidio.I highly recommend Emidio as a saxophone teacher. With Emidio, you can be certain that you learn to play the saxophone in the best possible way.
