So, if you're a aspiring singer looking to find your own unique coach I am here to help!

Singers like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and Frank Sinatra have left an indelible mark on American popular music through their jazz vocal stylings, fusing a conversational delivery with rhythmic and melodic improvisation. This course is tailored for each student to teach the unique characteristics of jazz singing and how to apply these characteristics to create your own sound. You will learn jazz phrasing, how to integrate good technique into jazz song styles, and how to sing with a number of time feels and grooves.

The course focuses on jazz vocal technique and delivery, including use of vocal inflections, dynamics, articulation, and interpretation, and how to improvise through rhythmic and melodic phrasing. The course then will go deeper into jazz improvisation expanding the musical vocabulary of scat studying syllabels, rhythm, and melodic ideas.

In this course we will apply these concepts to jazz tunes in various tempos and grooves, including ballads, medium swing, fast swing, and bossa nova. You'll move on to learn important considerations for effective stage presence and use of the microphone, too.

Elk niveau is welkom in deze les. Liedjes leren is het begin van het avontuur, in vrijheid muziek leren spelen is de levenslange reis. Improvisatie betekent niet dat we de techniek vergeten! Leer dus wat saxofoon, wat jazzvaardigheden en muziektheorie op een beproefde manier die is ontwikkeld tijdens mijn vele jaren lesgeven.

Ik ben net zo gepassioneerd door improvisatie als de saxofoon zelf, de twee gaan prachtig samen.

Ik ben Julia, een professionele saxofonist, oorspronkelijk uit Montreal, Canada. Ik woon 4 jaar in Nederland en heb een masterdiploma Muziek. Ik componeer, engineer en voer muziek uit. Ik hou ook van lesgeven, ik heb ervaringen met kinderen van 9 tot 90 jaar. Het belangrijkste idee van mijn lesfilosofie is om het geluid in je hoofd de lucht in te krijgen. "Begeleid onbevreesd muziek maken" is mijn motto!

I teach online via Zoom, using software which allows you to see the exact keys I'm playing on my keyboard.

My teaching method is to focus on whatever type of music the student loves most, and to build from there. I believe that many people give up their dream of playing an instrument simply because they aren't inspired enough, so my goal is to instill a love for music, whatever that means personally for each individual student.

Everyone learns differently and has their own pace and rhythm. I have some students who like to have a regular weekly or biweekly lesson, and others who just get in touch once in a while when they have digested the previous lesson and feel ready to build on it. Whatever the case, I am very flexible and we can figure out what works best for you.

A bit about me:

Originally honing my skills on the British jazz scene and holding residencies in restaurants and bars around the country, I then went on to tour the world playing on cruise ships, hotels and festivals. I returned to London to complete my master's in jazz piano at the Guildhall School of Music, and during this time performed regularly at Ronnie Scotts, The Vortex and many other venues across the UK. I then spent two years in South America learning about salsa and Cuban music. I now mainly work as a transcriber, writing sheet music for all instruments including full Big Band scores. I have also worked extensively in musical theatre, most recently as musical director for 'Jersey Boys', and on the first US national tour of 'Summer: the Donna Summer Musical'. The video shown below is from my stint playing and directing 'After Midnight', a show set to the music of the Duke Ellington Big Band.

Gitaarcursus voor alle niveaus, van beginners tot gevorderden.

De cursus omvat klassieke en elektrische gitaar, maar ook popgitaar en compositie, en biedt een uitgebreide opleiding die is afgestemd op de interesses van de student.

In eerste instantie wordt een niveaubepaling uitgevoerd om de technische vaardigheden, muzikale kennis en eerdere ervaring in kaart te brengen. Op basis van deze bepaling, en rekening houdend met de doelen, ambities en muzikale voorkeuren van de student, wordt een gepersonaliseerde methode ontwikkeld, gericht op technische, muzikale en creatieve ontwikkeling.

De cursus streeft naar een evenwicht tussen techniek, interpretatie, muzikaal begrip en persoonlijke expressie, waardoor de student op een solide en bewuste manier vooruitgang kan boeken, ongeacht de stijl die hij of zij verder wil verkennen.

Learn music through play and improvisation from the very first lesson

I offer music lessons open to all levels, from complete beginners to more experienced musicians.

My teaching approach is based on a simple idea: enjoyment is the driving force behind learning.
That is why instrumental technique and music theory are applied directly through playing, rather than through an accumulation of exercises disconnected from real musical practice.

A highly personalized and adaptable approach

I do not follow a rigid method or offer identical programs for everyone.

Each student’s individuality is highlighted and enhanced rather than suppressed to fit into a fixed framework.

Every student progresses through the music they love and want to play.

Rather than studying theoretical concepts in the abstract, we approach them only when they directly support the music currently being learned. The goal is to create a direct connection between what is learned and what is played.

My intention is for students to gradually discover and build their own way of learning and playing, leading toward independence in musical learning and exploration.



Instruments and areas taught

I offer:

• Improvisation for all instruments and all styles
• Instrumental technique for clarinet, guitar, and ukulele
• Composition guidance
• Foundations of harmony applied to practical playing



Typical lesson structure

Each lesson is based on a piece of music or a concrete musical support.

The work may include:

• Simple analysis of the piece to guide the learning process
• Work on phrasing, rhythm, harmony, tone, and musical expression
• Immediate application through playing and improvisation

The goal is to improve while staying connected to real music and the pleasure of playing.



Who are these lessons for?

These lessons are suitable for:

• Beginners who want to start playing quickly
• Amateur musicians who want to learn improvisation
• People looking for a freer and more creative approach
• Musicians who want to progress without a strictly academic teaching style



My goal

To help you develop your musical expression and find your own way of playing and learning.

Elk niveau is welkom in deze les. Liedjes leren is het begin van het avontuur, in vrijheid muziek leren spelen is de levenslange reis. Improvisatie betekent niet dat we de techniek vergeten! Leer dus wat saxofoon, wat jazzvaardigheden en muziektheorie op een beproefde manier die is ontwikkeld tijdens mijn vele jaren lesgeven.

Ik ben net zo gepassioneerd door improvisatie als de saxofoon zelf, de twee gaan prachtig samen.

Ik ben Julia, een professionele saxofonist, oorspronkelijk uit Montreal, Canada. Ik woon 4 jaar in Nederland en heb een masterdiploma Muziek. Ik componeer, engineer en voer muziek uit. Ik hou ook van lesgeven, ik heb ervaringen met kinderen van 9 tot 90 jaar. Het belangrijkste idee van mijn lesfilosofie is om het geluid in je hoofd de lucht in te krijgen. "Begeleid onbevreesd muziek maken" is mijn motto!

Leren drummen?
Easy as 1,2,3.
Met mij leer je the basics, met je favorieten muziek meespelen en je eigen grooves op te bouwen.
Het liefst bij mij in de studio, maar het kan ook bij u.

Ik heb 15 jaar achter de kit in verschilde stijlen (rock, jazz, reggae, afrobeat).

I teach online via Zoom, using software which allows you to see the exact keys I'm playing on my keyboard.

My teaching method is to focus on whatever type of music the student loves most, and to build from there. I believe that many people give up their dream of playing an instrument simply because they aren't inspired enough, so my goal is to instill a love for music, whatever that means personally for each individual student.

Everyone learns differently and has their own pace and rhythm. I have some students who like to have a regular weekly or biweekly lesson, and others who just get in touch once in a while when they have digested the previous lesson and feel ready to build on it. Whatever the case, I am very flexible and we can figure out what works best for you.

A bit about me:

Originally honing my skills on the British jazz scene and holding residencies in restaurants and bars around the country, I then went on to tour the world playing on cruise ships, hotels and festivals. I returned to London to complete my master's in jazz piano at the Guildhall School of Music, and during this time performed regularly at Ronnie Scotts, The Vortex and many other venues across the UK. I then spent two years in South America learning about salsa and Cuban music. I now mainly work as a transcriber, writing sheet music for all instruments including full Big Band scores. I have also worked extensively in musical theatre, most recently as musical director for 'Jersey Boys', and on the first US national tour of 'Summer: the Donna Summer Musical'. The video shown below is from my stint playing and directing 'After Midnight', a show set to the music of the Duke Ellington Big Band.

Gitaarcursus voor alle niveaus, van beginners tot gevorderden.

De cursus omvat klassieke en elektrische gitaar, maar ook popgitaar en compositie, en biedt een uitgebreide opleiding die is afgestemd op de interesses van de student.

In eerste instantie wordt een niveaubepaling uitgevoerd om de technische vaardigheden, muzikale kennis en eerdere ervaring in kaart te brengen. Op basis van deze bepaling, en rekening houdend met de doelen, ambities en muzikale voorkeuren van de student, wordt een gepersonaliseerde methode ontwikkeld, gericht op technische, muzikale en creatieve ontwikkeling.

De cursus streeft naar een evenwicht tussen techniek, interpretatie, muzikaal begrip en persoonlijke expressie, waardoor de student op een solide en bewuste manier vooruitgang kan boeken, ongeacht de stijl die hij of zij verder wil verkennen.

Learn music through play and improvisation from the very first lesson

I offer music lessons open to all levels, from complete beginners to more experienced musicians.

My teaching approach is based on a simple idea: enjoyment is the driving force behind learning.
That is why instrumental technique and music theory are applied directly through playing, rather than through an accumulation of exercises disconnected from real musical practice.

A highly personalized and adaptable approach

I do not follow a rigid method or offer identical programs for everyone.

Each student’s individuality is highlighted and enhanced rather than suppressed to fit into a fixed framework.

Every student progresses through the music they love and want to play.

Rather than studying theoretical concepts in the abstract, we approach them only when they directly support the music currently being learned. The goal is to create a direct connection between what is learned and what is played.

My intention is for students to gradually discover and build their own way of learning and playing, leading toward independence in musical learning and exploration.



Instruments and areas taught

I offer:

• Improvisation for all instruments and all styles
• Instrumental technique for clarinet, guitar, and ukulele
• Composition guidance
• Foundations of harmony applied to practical playing



Typical lesson structure

Each lesson is based on a piece of music or a concrete musical support.

The work may include:

• Simple analysis of the piece to guide the learning process
• Work on phrasing, rhythm, harmony, tone, and musical expression
• Immediate application through playing and improvisation

The goal is to improve while staying connected to real music and the pleasure of playing.



Who are these lessons for?

These lessons are suitable for:

• Beginners who want to start playing quickly
• Amateur musicians who want to learn improvisation
• People looking for a freer and more creative approach
• Musicians who want to progress without a strictly academic teaching style



My goal

To help you develop your musical expression and find your own way of playing and learning.
