Piano Lessons for Music Lovers and Time-Starved Professionals

Piano Lessons for Music Lovers and Time-Starved Professionals

Hello there! Do you wish to learn to play the piano but do not have several hours every day to dedicate to practicing? I can help! With 15 years of teaching experience, I’ve honed my methods to facilitate rapid progress and maximize efficiency. My students achieve in months, what usually takes years when following a conventional music school program. Nonetheless, I am not taking any shortcuts. On the contrary, one of the reasons why my students progress so fast is my insistence on building solid fundamentals. I strive for my students to master the necessary tools for them to then achieve their own personal ambitions. Having observed the practice routines of professionals and university students worldwide, I've realized that there's often much time to be gained during practice. Realizing everyone's personnality, approach, affinities and tastes are different, I prioritize a personalized approach tailored to your individual learning style. Together, we'll make the most of our sessions, whether you're a beginner diving into music or an intermediate player seeking to enhance your skills. And guess what? You won't need to practice for hours on end to see significant improvement. With regular lessons, even just 15 minutes of practice three times a week can lead to enormous progress. As I often say, the learning process is more akin to a marathon than a sprint. While efficiency is important, I believe that learning should be fun and inspiring. In my lessons, you can expect a supportive and encouraging environment. I'll be there with you every step of the way, celebrating your achievements and helping you overcome any challenges that arise. Together, we'll create a positive and empowering learning experience. Ready to embark on your fast and efficient piano learning journey? Contact me to schedule lessons, discuss pricing and get ready for a rewarding musical adventure! Looking forward to hearing from you! Carl

Free improvisation, composition, piano - discover a new musical language and your own expression

Free improvisation, composition, piano - discover a new musical language and your own expression

I offer individually tailored lessons in composition, free improvisation, and piano for students of all levels — from beginners to advanced musicians. Composition Lessons focus on developing a personal musical language through both creative work and analytical study. We analyze scores from various periods, including the 20th and 21st centuries. We explore contemporary compositional techniques, form, harmony, texture, and extended instrumental techniques (including their notation). Students are guided in building original works while strengthening their artistic identity. Free Improvisation This course combines practical exercises with the analysis of selected works and recordings in experimental and improvised music. The aim is to liberate musical expression while consciously shaping an individual musical language. The course is not dedicated to any single style or genre, but rather focuses on helping each participant discover and develop their own artistic voice and approach to music-making. It is suitable not only for beginners, but also for advanced musicians seeking to expand their vocabulary and deepen their artistic practice. There is no restriction to a single instrument: participants are welcome to bring their own instrument or join without any instrument at all. Lessons can take place both individually and in small groups. This format is also highly suitable for children, as improvisation encourages imagination, confidence, and a playful exploration of sound. Piano Piano lessons integrate technique, sound awareness, and interpretative work. Repertoire may include classical, contemporary, or experimental music, depending on the student’s interests and goals. We work either with a programme assigned by a university or institution, or develop an individual programme tailored to the student’s artistic interests, technical level, and personal objectives.

Guitar and music lessons (Guitar, Theory, Composition, Ear training, Improvisation, and more)

Guitar and music lessons (Guitar, Theory, Composition, Ear training, Improvisation, and more)

Hello all, I am Rotem (26), I am guitarist, composer, and music theorist. I am currently a doctoral candidate in the Artistic Research department at the Kunstuniversität Graz and Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) under the supervision of Isabel Mundry and Deniz Peters. I have a master's degree in composition from Zurich University of the Arts, where I studied with Isabel Mundry and Burkhard Kinzler and focused on composition, historical temperaments, and counterpoint. I studied my bachelor’s in jazz guitar performance at the New England Conservatory, where I studied guitar with Joe Morris and composition with Stratis Minakakis (2023). Prior to that, I completed a diploma program at The Center for Jazz Studies in Tel Aviv, in partnership with The New School in New York (2021). I have been performing, touring and teaching around the world: New York, Washington DC, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, and more! I have grown up with education both in jazz and classical practices, and therefore am very versatile and fluent with both worlds which i believe creates a unique and interesting perspective for approaching music. In our lessons, we could focus on anything you'd like to: guitar, music theory, composition, ear training, electronic music, improvisation (jazz and free improvisation), rhythm, and many more. If you're currently preparing for auditions, exams, or just feel like picking up an instrument or learn about music, feel more than welcome to get in touch! The lessons can take place either in my house in the 15th district or your place. Looking forward to hearing from you and get to know you, and please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions :)

Play your favorite songs straight away, write your own songs and record them (git or keys)

Play your favorite songs straight away, write your own songs and record them (git or keys)

LEARNING BY HEART Learn to play/sing favorite songs: - Depending on your ability, we simplify (or enrich) the accompaniment and improve it in a fluid manner - I'll show you various "hacks" and shortcuts - you don't have to do anything "right", you can follow the fun. - play/practice without pressure, how does that work...? You can make it easier for yourself! How much time you invest stays with you. :-) - any style possible, as long as it makes sense for you technically - Singing: easy! Write your own songs: - I give you different "glasses", "rails" through which you come up with new ideas, both for the music as well as the lyrics and singing - "writers block" - from the head back to the heart using simple techniques - learn to use the hidden treasure trove of ideas in your body (subconscious)! - and most importantly: have fun with “bad” songs! generally: - you will find clear goals for each hour (e.g. record a song or parts of it,...), for the next few weeks and for the next months - we record as much as possible because it is the best exercise (and the most exciting ;-) and you have something "in your hands" that is satisfying in itself, no matter how "perfect" it is (everything is perfect How clean is up to you ;-). - I'll help you promote the joy of sharing your music ("I can give something!") - and above all: learn to feel what really makes you happy. It's important to me that you feel safe with me and have fun, no matter how things are going. I'm happy if you dare, it can only get better! :-)

“ Stephen's lesson on harmony was just what I needed! I had a few specific questions to brush up on, and he explained everything super clearly and in a way that made it easy to apply to my work. He's knowledgeable and approachable—I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of music theory! Or if you're like me and need a quick refresh of all the things you forgot years ago from school 😅 ”

“ Marloes does an excellent job of understanding the student's needs and goals. Always attentive during the lessons, she provides clear/targeted feedback on areas of improvement and actively listens to your singing. Most importantly, she creates a comfortable/safe environment to experiment with your voice. As a beginner in singing, I highly recommend anyone who wants to get started singing to take lessons with her! ”

“ After only a few lessons with Jeremy, I can say that he helped me progress more than I was able to achieve in 2 years trying to learn the bass through Youtube videos… He helped with the theoretical aspects as well as with my playing technique. He is very methodical and adapts to your needs and requests, and he also provided me with homework and very helpful tips and practice exercices. Highly recommended! ”
