Learn Music with Cooper: Sax, Flute, Clarinet, Bass Guitar, Harmonica

From 40.29 € /h

I teach saxophone, clarinet, flute, harmonica, and bass guitar online(virtually).
I think it's very important from the beginning to find your individual voice on your instrument. Technique is important, but it will be taught simultaneously with artistic voice. One of the great things about music is being to express your version of yourself on your instrument. What's the point in learning scales if you can't play the song you want to play? From day one, we will focus on all aspects of learning, and of music, at the same time. I'm super patient and I love to teach, and I'll cater my teaching style to the individual student. I look forward to teaching you!

About me:
I started playing music when I was I ten. I was awarded a partial scholarship to the University of Idaho's Lionel Hampton School of Music where I majored in Classical Saxophone Performance, where I won the Outstanding Jazz Soloist award (2004). I then received a partial scholarship to the Berklee College of Music and studied there with a principal instrument of saxophone, and graduated with a degree in Contemporary Writing and Production in 2009. I've spent the last ten years performing full-time, on cruise ships (Carnival, Princess, Holland-America, Celebrity, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, The World), land tours (iLa Mawana national tour), theatre productions (For The Record: The Brat Pack, Broadway's After Midnight), and independent bands (Samsaya Trio, Vivian Clement Quartet). My performing experience has taken me to 70 countries and all seven continents. I've self-recorded and self- produced multiple albums. I've been featured as an arranger in many settings, including Robert McFletcher's LOVE. I have three of my own shows (A Public Saxophone and other Bedtime Stories, Just Sax, and CBSAXLIVE). While I studied saxophone as my primary instrument, I also play flute, clarinet, harmonica and bass guitar at a professional level. My degree is in composition and recording/production, so I would love to help anyone getting started in that area. I also teach music theory for those interested in learning theory.

Learn to play to decipher scores and improvise by ear or by reading and analyzing chord charts. This course will adapt to your level of play: simple harmonies for beginners and more complex depending on the degree of mastery of the instrument. This course also includes a thorough introduction to harmony.

I offer individual flute lessons for students of all ages and levels — from complete beginners to advanced players.
Lessons are tailored to each student’s goals, abilities, and musical interests, whether you are learning for pleasure, school, exams, or professional development.

In my lessons, we work on:
• correct posture and breathing
• tone production and intonation
• technique and articulation
• musical expression and interpretation
• repertoire adapted to your level

I also teach piano and solfège, which can be included in the lessons to help you better understand music theory, rhythm, and harmony, and to support faster and more confident progress on the flute.

My teaching style is clear, supportive, and structured, creating a comfortable learning environment where students can grow musically at their own pace. Lessons are suitable for children, teenagers, and adults.

Lessons are available online or in person.

Learn to play the flute with an internationally performing concert artist. Lessons are designed for motivated beginners, advanced students, and adults seeking serious musical development.

You will develop tone quality, professional breath control, technique, musical ear, rhythm, memory, and expressive musical thinking. Lessons also contribute to intellectual development, fine motor coordination, concentration, and artistic confidence.

For beginners and younger students, lessons may begin with the recorder — a simple and effective instrument for developing breathing, articulation, coordination, and basic musical skills before transitioning to the flute. For intermediate and advanced students, professional classical flute training is offered, including repertoire development and audition preparation.

Lessons may include music reading, development of musical style and interpretation, and preparation for concerts, competitions, and auditions. Each lesson is individually tailored to the student’s level, goals, and musical background.

Lessons are available in English, Russian, and Ukrainian.

My lessons are personalised, engaging and designed to make learning music an exciting and rewarding journey.

In addition to flute I also teach piano and offer training in solfeggio (music theory, rhythm, and ear-training skills), giving students a well-rounded musical foundation.
