Clarinet lessons from beginner to advanced student

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 42 € /h

I offer clarinet lessons to young or adult musicians who like to play the clarinet, regardless of whether you are a beginner or an advanced player. I work from a holistic principle in which I base myself on various methods for clarinet practice (for beginners this is for example Jan van Beekum, hearing reading and playing or Collis. For the advanced player this is for example Collis, Gambaro, Uhl or Cavallini). I teach, among other things, musicality, expression, musical phrases, breathing, tone formation, technical control and rhythm. I myself still take clarinet lessons at the conservatory of Zwolle and I strive to pass on the skills I acquired there to the student.

Extra information

Bring your own clarinet. If you don't have one, I know how to buy or rent one at a low price.

SPECIALISED IN TEACHING ADULTS.
Would you like to learn one of the instruments which have more style possibilities? Would you like to know why many composers say that is a very powerful instrument because it fits in may situations? Did you know that in the Klezmer history clarinet substituted the violin for projection reasons but also because perfectly able to imitate the human voice, crying or laughing? Would you like to discover the fascinating world of clarinet?

One of my priorities as a musician is the sound. I believe that with a beautiful and personal sound you are able at every level to transmit emotion and meaning, it doesn’t matter the difficulty or the level. So I try to focus first on awareness of what’s beautiful for the student and what’s not. Then through technique and repertoire (suggestions of the student or suggestions of mine that can help to grow the student curiosity), we develop the student knowledge.

Always helping the student to understand -depending on his/her the theoretical level- what we are doing, putting together music and theory. And giving tools to expand the border, at all levels. I have knowledge and experience in Jazz, Classical, Klezmer, Choro Music and Improvisation.
You just need a precious element!

• Music Theory
I focus on having a good basics, spending as much as we need to understand every single thing, because then with times it becomes more easy. I try to help the student simplifying the material because then, we only with ourselves with a good procedure of the basics to solve any problem. Only with one lesson, you will understand what I mean.

I have experience in preparing students for exams, the ones for the semester as well as any official exam; doesn't matter if you have an intermediate theory level and you want to improve, or if you would like to be stronger solidifying the knowledge you have (which is always the best option), or if you don’t know anything about notes and music concepts and you would like to be familiar with them. Maybe you are an adult who always wanted to improvise but doesn’t know where to start...?
The only thing you need is a good organization -which I can provide- to reach any goal!

In the classes we will address the different elements that make up music in different styles, knowing the particular language of each one. To do this, we will work on the different tools that we have with each instrument at the level at which each one is. We all know music but many times they make us believe that no, that it is necessary to know how to read and write. That is the graphic part of the language that we will learn little by little, music is a compendium of many other things. Some that we already know and others to know.

We will study the use of the keys and the positions of the clarinet, or the sax, the best way to position ourselves whether we play standing or sitting, the most efficient way to use the air, the diaphragm, the muscles. We will learn to form a good embouchure and we will develop a study method adapted to each one, according to their tastes, possibilities and interests.
I work with boys and girls from different parts of the world as well as with adults and the elderly.

In my experience I learned that, truly, the greatest limitation that we find ourselves is the very feeling of not being able, of believing that we cannot. The support of a dedicated teacher is essential to get out of those places where we accidentally enter and that sometimes limit us. We all feel that sometime. It is time for us to remedy it.

I will provide my own materials in pdf, video and audio.
There is no age limit.

I've been teaching saxophone and flute for about 30 years. I studied in Paris and New York with some of the greatest saxophonists, including the great master Barry Harris. Over time, I've developed a pleasant and effective method. I also teach the Alexander Technique, a very effective tool for learning to play with minimal effort.
I teach classes for all levels and styles, although I specialize in teaching jazz improvisation.

Hi!
I’m a professional clarinetist offering personalized clarinet lessons focused on classical technique, musical expression, and mental training. My goal is to help you feel confident, focused, and inspired every time you play — whether you’re preparing for an audition, developing your sound, or rediscovering your love for the instrument.

I hold Master’s degrees with high distinction from conservatories in Belgium and the Netherlands, and have taken masterclasses with world-class clarinetists such as Yehuda Gilad, Philippe Berrod, Pascal Moraguès, Arno Pieters, Philippe Cuper, Ronald Van Spaendonck, and José Luis Estellés, among others.
Winner of the Clarinetissimo Talent Brugge Competition (2017), I’ve collaborated with major orchestras such as La Monnaie / De Munt, Opera Ballet Vlaanderen, Brussels Philharmonic, and the Orquesta Filarmonía de Granada, among others.

My lessons combine a strong classical foundation with effective study techniques and mental preparation tools inspired by performance psychology and mindfulness. I help students learn how to practice efficiently, overcome stage anxiety, and connect technique with expression.
Although lessons are personalized to each student's needs, we will focus on:
-Tone production, articulation, breathing, and phrasing;
-Effective study methods and practice routines;
-Interpretation of classical or light music repertoire;
-Stage presence and mindset during performances;
-Mental preparation strategies to reduce anxiety and improve concentration.

I prepare students for:
Conservatory entrance exams
Orchestral and chamber music auditions
Recitals and competitions
Personal artistic development and performance preparation

I have experience teaching students of all ages and levels, from beginners to advanced players and professionals. I’m a patient, supportive, and motivated teacher, and I truly enjoy guiding each student to reach their full potential while enjoying the process.
