Customized handpan / tongue drum / hang drum lessons

Àpd 76.97 $ /h

Hey, I am Koné (23) a full time artist and musician. I am mainly a percussionist with a big focus on handpan (also known as hang, hang drum, pantam,...). I have been playing percussion for 17 years and through studying and practicing different instruments have been able to develop a great teaching method. I have been a student of several professionals: Kabecao, Nadishana, Malte Marten, David Kucherman, Rosie Bergonzi, Johan de Baedts, Eric Bosteels, Wouter van Tornhout, Patrick Dorcean, Dré Pallemaerts, Sattar Khan, Toni Vitacollona, Benny Bettane, Dan Mayo,...

I would like to transfer the knowledge I have gained over these years to you! The lessons are suitable for all levels from beginner to advanced: I like to adapt to the student in question, so there is always material and exercises to complete the musical "circle" of skills.

Don't hesitate to send me a message and we'll see what's possible.

We will focus on skills that are very important as a percussionist / handpan player:

- technique
- melody
- harmony
- improvisation
- composition
- timing
- coordination
- musicality
- sound
- groove/pocket

And much more!

Don't hesitate to send me a message!

I have neither done the academy nor graduated from the conservatory but I have a huge passion for music that I want to share with people who want to learn guitar or drums. No need for music theory, just the desire to learn will suffice ... I will learn with pleasure and passion for beginners or intermediaries how to play their favorite songs. And no matter what age, it's never too late to start! You will also have a real framework that will allow you to grow as you want and at your own pace.

.........................................................................................................................................................

The course method, inspired by the Agostini school (French method used in French and Belgian academies and conservatories) is divided between technique and drums. At the rate of one session each we will focus once on technique and movements outside the drums (on pads) and the other time on the drums and the application of technique and movements.

-> The technique lessons and the movements will be those of the so-called 'Moeller technique' that I learned through his direct lineage of student.
-> The drum lessons are greatly inspired by the pedagogy of the M.A.I. (Music Academy International - Nancy (fr)) and in particular that of Richard-Paul Morellini, renowned instructor.

The courses are complete, in-depth but above all specifically thought of to be progressive. They are suitable for children from 7 years old as well as adults of all ages.

=> Particular attention is paid to the movements and their correct application, to the total independence of the limbs and finally to an understanding of the rhythm and its theory. My main goal is to give the student complete control behind the drums and skills to be able to self-learn any piece in any musical style. 1 hour of weekly lessons are never enough, they should only be used to fuel the passion that will make you play at home more and more.

On demand or for advancs students:
- I am very passionate about the study of South American rhythms. Due to their complexity, apart from the samba and Baïon ostinatos, they are not included in the program before the advanced level. They can be at the request of the student.
- I am also specialized in metal (musical style) and double pedal. The latter is not included in the program unless requested by the student. The double pedal courses are based on the methodology of Virgil Donati.

Technique:
* Moeller technique (the 'whipping motion' - the Free stroke -Full/Half/Low stroke - accepting the rebound - its application etc.)
* Snare rudiments and their applications through reading systems
* Readings of scores and exercises for the snare drum
* Speed drills
* Military marches
* Control of the different subdivisions (quarter notes - eighth notes - triplets - sixteenth notes - quintuplets - sextuplets - triple eighth notes - nonolets etc.)
* Displacement of accents and polyrhythms
* On request, double pedal technique (application of the Moeller to the double pedal as well as everything listed above but with the feet)

Drums:
* Bass drum reading and independance
* Snare drum reading and independance
* Applications of ghost notes
* The 16 sixteenth-notes ostinatos
* Jazz readings and independence
* Binary and ternary readings
* Coordination and movements of both feet
* Dynamics on the instrument
* Creation of fills and original drum grooves
* On request, application of the double pedal
* On request or for advanced students, readings and independence of South American rhythms (study and independence of the clave/Cascara/Mozambique etc.)

I am a professional drummer, composer, and performer based in Brussels, with an active career in jazz, improvised, and creative music across Europe.

Whether your background is rock, pop, world, indie, or anything else, we focus on what serves your music, and on what learning this instrument can become. My goal is not to tell you strictly how things should be done, but to help you find your own way of doing them. To strengthen the musician that already exists inside you, and give you the tools to grow with confidence and independence.

I offer private drum lessons focused on long term development rather than isolated sessions. My work with students is based on regular weekly lessons, helping each drummer build solid technique, musical awareness, sound, and a personal voice in the instrument.

These lessons are for:
- Beginners who want a strong and musical foundation
- Intermediate players who want to improve groove, coordination, and confidence
- Creative musicians interested in improvisation, sound, and advanced rhythmic development.

My approach is practical and human. We work on what you really need, from basic technique and time feel to more advanced topics like independence, phrasing, and creative practice methods.

I mainly work with students who are interested in continuity and real progress through regular lessons.
