Singing classes given by professional singer and former Royal Opera House performer

Àpd 49.01 $ /h

I am a professional singer in the classical and modern sense: singing in choirs, cathedrals, and churches for over a decade, I can teach the classical style (soprano/treble, alto, tenor, bass); and as a singer/songwriter, with many performances at public venues, I can teach the more conventional style of singing.

Regardless of style, I can teach my students the necessary techniques to bring not only the voice but the breath and diaphragm to their true potential. Like any instrument, progress is determined principally by consistency.

Online classes must take place in an area where the student can sing freely

Oral and aural have always been my strong suits, yet my time at university, as well as my ability to write in English – working as a copywriter and editor professionally – have honed my ability to teach essay structure and the more challenging elements within school and university levels.

Music Composition and Production (Logic Pro X) – Online classes

56.01 $ /h

Music production and composition is a key skill for any musician looking to accurately translate what's in their heads into reality, alongside the continued development of their creative musical ability.

It can be very easy when composing song and chord structure to get caught in loops, repeating old patterns with little new. These can be subverted by new creative contexts, tapping in to unexplored areas. Additionally, a micro and macro learning of music theory will expand possibilities.

I can teach Production to an Intermediate level and Composition to an Advanced level. Classes will specifically cater to each individual student.

After ascertaining the level of my student, we engage in Spanish conversation at the start of the lesson, catching up on weekly occurrences. After identifying and correcting error prone areas, we move on to a reading and vocab-expanding exercises, where reading out loud in Spanish greatly improves accent, and vocabulary retention. The final parts of our class are dedicated to translating Spanish to English, after reading the section aloud, as well as revising weak areas, or areas that will be subject to tests.

With adult learners, we can focus on topics which fascinate the student alongside excellent books (classics and those within genres they like) to hand-craft an enjoyable and profound curriculum.

I teach in an easy-going and humorous manner, making learning Spanish an engaging and exciting prospect, in contrast to textbook-heavy approaches.

This structure serves as a base, and is moulded towards the needs of the student.

TEACHER / TRAINER

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Do you want to know your vocal range? To be able to sing higher notes without damaging your voice? To learn how to sing transitional notes? To achieve a powerful yet agile voice?

My name is Matteo Schifanoia, I am a songwriter, pop and jazz singer, and vocal coach with 20 years of experience in music. I offer singing lessons for all levels. My lessons focus on developing body, muscle, and vocal awareness, which helps us perceive and consider our bodies as musical instruments.

My teaching method is the result of the synthesis of my experience as a singer and the many and diverse study paths followed. The lesson is structured in two parts: the first half devoted to vocal technique, the second half to the musical repertoire and learning the musical language (jazz or pop or other genre).

The vocal technique that I propose is a basic technique for all types of modern singing: from postural education to the care of breathing, from the use of abdominal muscles, to the emission of air to the resonance cavities. We will work on the sound, on the extension of the voice, on the high and low notes, on the passage of register, on the control, on the power and agility.

From a repertoire perspective, the lessons will be tailored to the student's needs and interests, with an emphasis on proper stage presence and posture. I can prepare students for conservatory entrance exams and all types of auditions. If the student wishes, I can also provide instruction in harmony and music reading.

My classes are different depending on your level and age.

With children from 7 to 12, we start by doing easy vocalization and start training the ear with intonation, we then have fun singing your favorite songs.

With teenagers, I also start with some vocalization, a little more elaborate. Depending on the student's capabilities, we start establishing a comfortable range for them and then proceed to singing.

For my older students ideally, I divide our lesson into 2 sections. We work on respiration and how the diaphragm works. We do scales and arpeggios and work on intonation. We then proceed to singing and putting into practice our technique. Some students might need more technique before they actually sing, I like to take things slowly and make sure the student feels confident and comfortable singing.

I teach children, teenagers, and adults, from beginners to more advanced. Classical training enables you to sing in any kind of way, so don’t hesitate and let’s sing!

In our Oud class, I will guide you through everything from basic to advanced techniques. We will cover playing for all levels, correct left-hand use, synchronizing with the right hand, handling the pick, tuning the Oud, and effectively using a tuner and metronome. In the remaining time, we will dive into reading musical notes, starting with basic Solfege and progressing to advanced and oriental Solfege, including dictation exercises. This comprehensive approach ensures a well-rounded musical journey

My recommendation for learning the Oud is to begin by studying musical notes and notation before delving into songs. While some students prefer to jump straight into playing songs, understanding the fundamentals of music notation accelerates progress in the long run. Dedication and hard work can yield significant progress within a year, enabling you to play simple tunes.

Feel free to leave me a message, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Experienced teacher of Oud and oriental Arabic singing for over 11 years, I am Lebanese and currently residing in Germany. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I taught at the Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and gave private lessons. In addition, I was conductor of the Loubnan Assalam oriental orchestra for over 5 years.

My recommendation for learning the Oud is to start with the study of notes and musical notation before tackling pieces. Although some students prefer to play songs directly, understanding the basics of musical notation allows for faster progress in the long run. With determination and hard work, significant progress can be made in a year, allowing one to play simple melodies.

Please feel free to leave me a message, I will reply as soon as possible.

Lors de nos cours, nous découvrirons votre voix et je vous aiderai à l’explorer. Grâce à mes années d’études en chant, j’ai acquis un solide bagage technique. J’analyserai vos besoins afin de vous accompagner au mieux. La confiance, l’écoute et la recherche seront nos piliers pour progresser ensemble. Nous travaillerons le souffle, le soutien, l’homogénéisation de la voix ainsi que son agilité à travers différentes vocalises. Avec les morceaux que nous étudierons, nous ferons le lien entre technique vocale, apprentissage d’une partition et interprétation. Le fil conducteur de mon enseignement sera le lien entre le corps et la voix.
