Clarinet lessons. Technique, musicality, study methods and mental training for auditions and performance.

Àpd 35 € /h

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.

Clarinet lessons at all levels: from absolute beginners to advanced players.
For me as a teacher it is very important to start from the wishes, needs and competences of the student himself.
You can follow lessons via webcam, or at your home near the Ghent - Kortrijk region.
If you don't have an instrument available, you can rent one from me. This offer is limited, so please inquire if you're interested.
Regarding music and other material: that is taken by me.

Below you can find some information about myself:

Hello! My name is Marcos, I am a clarinetist and I live in Brussels. I offer private lessons in person (they can be at your place or mine) or online.
I have experience as a teacher for the last few years with children, adults, individual and group classes. Professional or amateur level.
In my lessons, I help students find a good contact with the instrument and cultivate a positive relationship with music by integrating the development of auditory skills, a sense of rhythm and optimal use of the body, allowing them to connect with their musical imagination.
Lessons are tailored to the needs and desires of each student.
The most important thing is that we have a good time!
