Discover the Best Private Cello Classes in La Haye

I am a guitar teacher and professional musician myself who had no experience with the Viola da Gamba when I contaced Anna for lessons. As a trained musician, I have had many teachers in my life and I can honestly say that Anna is one of the best that I have ever had. She is knowledgeable beyond her years and her passion for music is so strong that it is easy to get inspired by it. She also puts a great deal of thought and preparation into her lessons, so you will be getting a lesson that is very much made for you specifically to be able to progress in a fast, yet relaxed way. Anna is extremely patient and took a lot of care to give me a good basis on the gamba. She gives very good exercises to target specific weaknesses (for me bowing), in addition to the note-reading exercises so you can get to know the instrument both with notation and without. In this way, you can also start from the beginning with very good technique. I have greatly enjoyed learning in the form of duets, playing simple melodies in the beginning that you can first practice at home by yourself. Then playing together with Anna is always enjoyable since the pieces and exercises she chooses are musically very beautiful and satisfying to hear on the two instruments together. Anna is a patient, passionate and devoted teacher. I know that she is an excellent player and it is rare to find someone so talented as a performer, that is also as devoted to her students and their own progress. I highly recommend her!

I’ve really enjoyed learning with Clara. She is patient, clear, and encouraging, which makes every lesson both productive and enjoyable. I’ve learned a lot about bowing techniques, and she explains them in a way that feels easy to understand and apply. She also introduces me to new songs that are both fun and challenging, helping me grow step by step. I appreciate her attention to detail and how she always gives practical tips to improve my playing. Overall, Clara creates a supportive atmosphere that motivates me to keep progressing with the cello. Thanks Clara!

Miriam is a very sweet and empathetic teacher. She clearly puts a lot of thought and preparation in her classes, gives a lot of positive feedback and encouragement. So glad I can share my new found love of cello with Miriam!
