Acerca de mí

My name is Yehorii, and I am originally from Ukraine. I began playing music on the block flute at the age of 7 and switched to the saxophone when I was 12. I completed a Young Specialist degree at the Glière Institute of Music in the Jazz Saxophone Department, and I have recently finished my Bachelor's degree at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam (CVA).

My goal as a teacher is to help my students grow and build a strong musical foundation. I want them to enjoy the lessons, have a good time, and feel inspired. I aim to help my students play the songs they love and truly connect with music.

Since the age of 16, I’ve been working with FL Studio and producing beats under the nickname Isolan.

If you've ever wanted to record your own song, make a beat, create a musical demo, or bring a musical idea to life, you'll need some basic knowledge of a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) and how music recording works.
I can help you set up your home studio and guide you step-by-step through using Ableton Live or FL Studio.

If you don’t have a background in music theory, no worries — I’ll also introduce you to the basics of music theory and piano playing. This will give you the tools to create your own music from scratch, without needing to go to a studio — everything can be done right from your home.

During the lesson, we can create a beat or work on an idea you’d like to turn into reality.
My goal is to give you the tools that will help bring your musical ideas to life.

I have a background of 7 years of classical piano and I also have been studing and playing Jazz (drums) for the past 8 years of my life (currently finishing my studies in the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

My goal is to teach people with no experience in music or drums and want to learn the basics of music theory, solfège and drums but also to more experienced students who want to improve their technique, coordination, sound, groove, etc.

I can also teach different musical genres on the drums, depending on the taste of the student

As an experienced teacher, my classes give special focus to the student's needs. All the materials given are contextualized so that the learning of the saxophone is not a mechanical practice, but, above all, artistic. The special attention I give to the way music is fun is an advantage of my classes!

Hey there! In my lessons, what you want is the most important. That's why we create together a plan of study with ideas, goals and subjects to reach out our dream to make music (that's also my dream)

Nevertheless, I can give you an overview of the content:

I divide the music theory in two: Technical and Musical.
Technical Theory regarding all the concepts and information related to music, and Musical Theory regarding the ideas and concepts to help us understand and improve the performance of music. Besides that, we look to harmony in a functional, rhythmical and organic way. We learn and approach music from the first lesson, looking at it from different angles (understanding rhythm and essence of a song for example). All this plus a nice diet of assignments and exercises: D

Furthermore, we put especial attention to enjoying music. That means playing but also listening music! For me, that's one of the best ways to learn :)

And of course, we learn as well by making mistakes, so at the end it's all about fun and trying things out;)

Remember: "True success isn't just getting what you want in life - it's liking what you get";)

Hi! My name is Eduardo, a professional musician and long-time music teacher. I am offering physical and online lessons in Music Theory, Improvisation and Instrument.
#Harmony #Composition #Solfège #Saxophone #Clarinet #Piano

Lessons are addressed to every student profile, regardless of age, level of expectations (no matter if it is seen as a hobby or rather if the individual is getting prepared for official Conservatory auditions, etc.).

We will play and/or focus on what the student is willing to deepen into (whatever music style they are interested in, more theoretical aspects or rather practical ones), trying to get the maximum profit of the employed time, and prioritising the actual learning of the person as the main factor for their motivation.

I obtained my Jazz Music Master's program at the Prince Claus Conservatoire of Groningen in June 2022.
Previously, in 2018, I graduated from my music Bachelor's at the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Liceu in Barcelona (Spain).

Lessons of music in all different ways through the brass instruments, mainly trumpet, with a teacher who gained his master degree in "Real Conservatorio Superior de música de Madrid" on classical music, and currently studying Jazz and modern music at "Conservatorium van Amsterdam" . Had collaborated with Jazz Concertgebouw Orchestra, Metropole Orkest, Bob Sands Big Band, Tina Turner the musical, and New Cool Collective between many more, and had lessons with teachers and artists such as Erik Veldkamp, Bob Sands, Bob Mintzer, Paul Ferguson, Enrique Rioja , Manuel Blanco, Gavor Tarkovi, and Alex Sipiagin, among many others.

Technique, sound, play in a group, phrasing different styles from classical music to jazz passing through latin flamenco or pop; basic harmony and composition, how to record from a home studio set up, mixing basics, everything you need to know nowadays to be an all-arround versatile musician.

Whether you are just starting to play the saxophone, or are an experienced player looking to expand your knowledge, I can help you!

My teaching approach is tailored to the student's needs and goals.
Are you a prospective conservatory student preparing for your entrance exam? Or an amateur musician just looking to improve your saxophone playing? We can figure out the right lesson length, schedule, and study materials just for you.

As a teacher I strongly believe in providing the student with solid fundamental skills - getting a nice sound, good posture, relaxed technique, etc. From there we can work on whatever the student is interested in, the #1 priority being nourishing their love for music!

Besides working on the saxophone playing itself, I am also there to help the student develop their ear, musical intuition, sense of rhythm and melody, and discover new music to expand their horizons.

My approach to singing lessons is based on developing and improving the voice in a technical and expressive way, while enjoying the learning process.

1. Body Awareness:
We begin by working on posture, breathing, and relaxation to prepare the body as a vocal instrument. By becoming more aware of our body, we'll become more conscious of how we use our voice, and our singing will be more natural and fluid.

2. Vocal Warm-up:
We perform specific exercises to activate the voice, including scales, arpeggios, and resonance techniques. These exercises help improve vocal range, intonation, and projection.

3. Repertoire Work:
Choose a song you like (or we can choose one together) and we'll explore it in depth. We'll develop vocal technique by applying it directly to performance, working on expression, diction, and musical style.

4. Custom Development:
Each class is tailored to your needs and goals. Progress is measured through songs that reflect your musical interests, ensuring a unique and motivating experience.

My goal is to create a safe and creative space where you can develop your voice, gain confidence, and enjoy the art of singing.

My name is Ignacio Pintó and I am a Spanish bass player living in Amsterdam. I moved to this lovely city four years ago to study the Jazz Double Bass Bachelor at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

I am in love with music, my main occupation right now is working in projects that excite me deeply, trying to bring new sounds to the world through composition and improvisation.

I love sharing this excitement and knowledge with people. That's the reason why I have developed a flexible system to organise music development, based on my recent experience. In the lessons we will focus on the music you love and find ways to develop the skills it requires in a methodic way, always having fun in the process. We will also playfully explore creativity and improvisation, my ultimate goal is finding your voice as a musician and helping you develop it!

Although double bass is my main instrument now, my first steps as a musician were given with bass guitar. I also have experience teaching that instrument and I feel equally capable of helping you develop those skills.

You can expect an personalised program, with prepared lessons based essentially in your musical interests and goals, potentially covering these topics among others: double bass technique, bowing, electric bass technique, jazz repertoire, ear training, music theory, improv techniques, rhythm, composition, basic production skills, basic piano skills.

If interested, next to the bass lessons I could also arrange ensemble lessons connecting you with fellow musicians of similar interests and skill level.
