My lessons are aimed at beginners and intermediate levels, whether you want to discover bass, double bass, improve your level, develop your technique or even learn your favorite pieces! I have a background as a Jazz musician and graduated from IMEP Paris College Of Music. I will therefore teach you the practice of bass in all styles according to your requests, and can introduce you to or help you deepen your knowledge of harmony and music theory. Without pressure but with work and enthusiasm, the music will become much clearer.

I am a 29-year-old musician graduated from the IMEP Paris School of Music and offer bass lessons for beginners to intermediate levels, children and adults. Posture work, finger playing, pick playing, left hand work, relationship to time, jazz harmony, introduction to music theory, pop, rock, jazz, Latin repertoire... I adapt to your expectations and requests! I have been offering lessons since the beginning of my higher education, that is to say for 10 years. I work with many pop, jazz and soul musicians (Troy Von Balthazar, François and The Atlas Mountains, Musketrio, Lapsus, Andrea Aaron...).

Extra information

Bringing your bass is ideal, but I have several so I can easily lend one for the lesson.

About Me

I have been a professional musician, bassist, double bassist and singer for 2 years. I am 28 years old and obtained my final diploma from IMEP in 2021. I also have a master's degree from the School of Advanced Studies in Social Sciences obtained in 2020, specializing in Music. In my teaching practice, I am committed to offering a course and exercises adapted to the wishes of my students, always with the objective of progressing without ever losing sight of the joy and pleasure of practicing an instrument! All the concepts covered will be applied to the instrument, never dissociating practice and theory, because it is in the body more than in the head that music happens!

Professional bass player in many formations (CULT, SERGE ANANOU, HOPHOPHOP CREW, etc.), IMEP (formerly American School of Modern Music) and ATLA graduate.
Beginners to advanced courses for a study of the instrument, groove, rhythmic rigor as well as improvisation. All styles go from blues to funk, from jazz to salsa, from afro beat to zouk!

After many years in the conservatory and a dozen to alternate between teaching and the stage, the gap between theory and practice has proved to be enormous. Two worlds that do not communicate with each other and boast an authenticity when only the purpose matters: to express itself via its instrument. Acquiring the technique and the experience but also the musical culture (and others ...) that will accompany us all our lives is an important issue. The work of the repertoire, the technique, the writing, the preparation for an examination or a concert, the history of his instrument ... These are all topics discussed during the course.

Professional composer and guitarist, graduate of the American School Of Modern Music and professor in a conservatory, I teach instrumental technique mainly in jazz:
- Knowledge of the handle
- Development of technical precision (speed, coordination)
- Chord playing and melodic playing
- Introduction to jazz improvisation and study of bebop
- Style study of great musicians
- Instrumental deciphering (if desired)

I also provide, in addition or separately, lessons in theory and musical harmony:
- Rhythm
- Ear work
- Harmony (structure of chords, cadences, scales)
- Learn to write a score clearly

The theory lessons can be taken without the instrument and when they take place at my home will be accompanied by the keyboard.

I therefore offer one-hour instrumental lessons or a two-hour program where practical and theoretical learning will be distributed in a complementary manner.

Classes can take place at my home or at the student's home within the limits of the city of Paris and its inner suburbs.

Professor at the conservatory, state-certified and professional musician; I propose courses for all levels.
Learning or improvement, I envision the lessons around pieces corresponding to the desires of the students. Having a classical training I can bring solid bases of techniques and reading of scores. My different experiences also allow me to propose an approach of current jazz and music repertoires.

For the battery I propose:
Beginners: an introduction to the instrument to quickly play the first elementary rhythms. We mix the study of pieces and theoretical exercises.
The choice and implementation of the method adapts to temperaments and aspirations. Rhythms, breaks, technique, progressive learning of reading.
For students of a more advanced level, we work the basics,
independence of members, rhythmic theory and more complex rhythms.
Methods used: Dante Agostini

For percussion:
Introduction to different oriental rhythms
Initiation in technique of Bendir, Darbouka, Daff, Riqq
And for more advanced students I teach the different forms of oriental music and we work on pieces of repertoire of oriental music (metrics: 4/4 3/4 6/8 10/8 9/8 7/4 ......)

To help you in your musical journey, I offer courses for beginners, intermediate and advanced students, ensemble classes and improvisation classes.

Beginners:
Do you dream of playing the flute, making music for your pleasure or together with friends? I will help you to discover the specificities of the instrument and to acquire the bases of a serious and autonomous practice.

Intermediate and advanced:
You already know how to play the flute and want to blossom and improve your skills? Do you have a specific goal, such as integrating a conservatory, ensemble or concert? I will give you experienced advice, depending on your goals. If you have pain or fatigue quickly, I will be there to help solve your posture or breathing problems.

Sets:
If you like to play together and progress together, you can enjoy chamber music lessons. I will accompany you in the work of listening, phrasing and intonation, integrating the tricks of the collective game and help you to establish a directory.

Initiation to improvisation:
You want to develop your freedom of expression and approach a new way of making music by detaching from the score?
I offer improvisation lessons starting from the learning of harmony and jazz modes, rhythm and the construction of a solo. Without putting flats! ;)

We will study piano and music theory through the practice of technique with the training and relaxation of hands and arms. Then we will study a piece of music of your choice (depending on your level) and discover all the harmonic and interpretive aspects.

This methodology is not fixed but adapts to your objectives and your wishes.
During the class, I will let you play the piano most of the time to familiarize yourself with the instrument.

Finally, I will help you train your musical ear.

I give singing lessons and I teach:
- the vocal technique
- jazz improvisation
- the jazz, lyric, variety, pop etc repertoire ...

In my class, I rely on the vocal technique of the old Italian school. That is to say .... I do not push your voice to do anything else. I remove bad habits, I ban your involuntary effects that you do not control ...

The goal is to make you discover your natural tone, thanks to my vocal technique acquired with Thalia Carouza, director of the school of the natural voice and professional lyric singer.

For more information, do not hesitate to ask me your questions!

The world of teaching is familiar to me. Indeed, I have been working as a private music teacher in France for 5 years. In addition, in Venezuela, I worked as a music teacher in schools, at university and at the conservatory. Capable of adapting quickly to new professional environments, I have a particular interest in teaching and education, and I attach great importance to pedagogy.

Depending on the motivation of the students and their age, I am able to find methods likely to adapt to each experience. I provide my lessons in a fun way to fully understand the musical language through ear training work (or ear training), conferences, the piano as a tool to understand the instrument studied. I also dedicate part of the time to Technical Aspects (very important to avoid undesirable posture effects).

For me it is very important to make the technique of the instrument well understood, to promote the musical awakening of each student and to develop the ability of each person to follow their own musical path and their desires.

In the first lesson Younes asks some questions about your experience with playing the piano, what kind of music (genre) you like, and what you encounter while playing the piano.

The lessons are positive and solution-oriented, we focus on what you need and want to achieve. Furthermore, Younes will give an introduction and the basic techniques if needed, and then the intention is of course to play :)
