About Me
With a passion for music I've been performing and teaching music for over 12 years. Originally from Vancouver, I've lived, studied and performed in places like South India, New York, Copenhagen, Paris, Berlin, Montréal, and South Africa.

People often describe me as a good listener, conscientious, kind, focused, someone who is always looking to learn. My lessons are specifically tailored for the student in question. Although I have many teaching tools, I like to work with the student and their particular goals to create lesson/learning strategies. This makes me very flexible in terms of the specifics of what we work on together.

Hi! My name Matt. I’m a passionate teacher of music. I teach piano, composition, music theory, ear-training and rhythmic studies. I’ve been teaching for 15-years in various musical styles and I’m offering specifically-tailored lessons to students of all ages, background, experience level. I teach in both english and danish.

Outside of formal education across Europe and Canada (Jazz masters in Performance, Post-Masters in Composition, Royal Conservatory of Music, grade 10) I’ve lived in places like South India (studying Carnatic classical music) and Bali (studying Gamelan music). Therefor my outlook and musical philosophy is very broad, international and holistic.

Look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Matt

Hej! My name is Steaph, I am a harpist from Scotland. I have lived in Copenhagen for 4 years.

I am an experienced and professional musician, and a passionate teacher. I am happy to teach students of any age (6+) and anybody from absolute beginners, to advanced students. Being from Scotland, where the lever harp is a traditional instrument, I have a lot of experience with celtic and folk music. I am a professional classical musician in Copenhagen, but I also have a passion for arranging and performing pop music!

So please write to me with the pieces you dream of playing - I would love to help you work towards these goals!

QUALIFICATIONS

Master of Music The Royal Danish Academy of Music- 2023 (Harp)

1st Class Bachelor of Music with Honors- 2017 (Royal Northern College of Music)

What to expect from my lessons:

I believe that everybody has the ability to play music and I can help you improve your confidence with my positive and encouraging attitude! This includes everybody from absolute beginners who have never performed in front of anybody. I like to provide a fun and relaxed atmosphere for my students to be able to play to the best of their ability.

I can help you develop a healthy technique: every student I have is different therefore I introduce exercises for each of my students according to their abilities and goals.

I love to help students with the interpretation and performance of different pieces in any genre.

I can help you to create a practice plan that is unique to your needs, time and goals.

Hi there!

My name is Darius , I am from Germany and I am studying my Master's at the Rythmic Music Conservatory in "Music Performance".

I've been playing the piano since the age of 5 years and I started teaching when I was 14 years old. I have experience teaching all levels, including young childres (>6) and adults of all age - teaching privately and in music schools ever since.

I can offer basic to intermediate teaching in classical related and pop related piano / keyboards. Having a jazz background myself I can offer jazz lessons from basic to expert which might include preparing for auditions. I am very open to the interests of my students, but my only requirement is to take some time for people call "practising" - or just making yourself a nice time with music :)

I also offer other music related teaching in music theory, "ear training", production etc. on all levels.

I believe that we should do stuff that you're interested in. Maybe you'd like to learn this beautiful classical piano piece? Or you would like to play jazz piano? Or you'd like to accompany yourself on the piano? Anything is possible :)

I also believe that lessons should not be work that you need to do or be good at... For me it's all about fun, creativity, imagination, and taking a break, relaxing, expressing, listening, experiencing, getting more sensitive.. enjoying music both listening to it and playing it yourself :)

If you're interested, you can listen to my music in my hiphop/jazz band "Bokoya"!

Lessons would take place at Rythmic Music Conservatory in Holmen (Bus 2A from Christianshavn) or (within a reach of 1052) in your home. Timing is pretty flexible. Let's meet each other :) Looking forward to hearing from you!
