Piano lessons for all ages, for beginners and advanced students

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
The piano is one of the most universal instruments. As a piano player you can be your own orchestra and play as a soloist, but you can also make beautiful music or accompany ensembles, in any musical style.

In my lessons I want to offer the student a broad foundation on the piano:

learn to read notes, play and interpret existing pieces of music
learn to listen carefully, play it by ear and after a while learn to make your own piano part
playing with chord progressions, gaining insight into harmony and chord theory
learn to improvise and come up with your own pieces
teamwork, because this way you learn to listen even better

My own roots lie in classical music, which provides a good technical basis for the instrument.

Ever since I was a student, I have enjoyed making music the most when you discover various music genres (such as classical, jazz, pop, world music) for yourself. This way you learn to connect these different musical worlds. As a teacher, I want to pass on all these possibilities to the student, so that after playing the piano for a while, he/she can determine his/her own path.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Renate Jörg started out as a classical piano lady. One day during her studies, she was given an accordion on her lap, which became her second instrument. About the same time she discovered the back door of the theater (artist's entrance). She composed and made music for and with musical theater groups.

Renate was the resident musician at Draaitheater De Overkant for many years, she toured Dutch theaters with the formation KAAL (2nd prize Amsterdam Kleinkunstfestival) and participated in productions of Kindertheater Basta and Theater Van Santen. She made children's theater with her own Theater Group Roosanne, wrote music for the Hoorspelfabriek and was a musician with Trio d'Affaire for many years. She was the regular accordionist of the cabaret duo Matroesjka and played with Dorine van der Klei. Renate currently plays with Trio Bartolussi.

She released her own song program on CD: UND SCHIEFE SCHEITEL KÄMMT DER WIND. She also played this program live in small halls: a “one-woman musical theater based on classical chamber music” (Ntb Muziekwereld)

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I studied music education at LMU Munich with main instrument classical piano. Already during my student years I came into contact with many different music styles from world music through the accordion, later also with jazz. Of course, I also apply this knowledge to the piano.

Experience / Qualifications

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
During my studies I worked as a piano teacher at various music schools.
I have been teaching (piano and accordion) in Amsterdam Westerpark for almost 20 years now.

Leo
Piano lessons, from pop music to light classical music
From 8 to 80, everyone can learn to play the piano. Teaching with pop music and all kinds of styles between jazz and classical music. Individual lessons of an hour or half an hour. The intention is that a pupil also learns to study and gain insight into the musical structures (simple).

Gosse
Piano lessons according to the principle: the best and fastest way to Rome!
Do you want to teach (electric) piano, keyboard or synthesizer? Then you have come to the right place! Gosse (1989) has been giving piano lessons for more than 10 years and we are proud to announce that almost all students who start the lessons actually continue. The lessons are primarily focused on fun and development. He knows from experience that the most important ingredients for learning to play the piano as effectively as possible are: 1: The pleasure of playing The fun is increased by learning to play numbers that the student experiences as beautiful or fun and that bring the right degree of challenge. Gosse mainly specializes in Pop, Soul, R&B, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Funk, Bossa-nova, Latin and Light classical styles. Learn to play your favorite songs! 2: Learning in the way that best suits the student There are three different ways in which someone can learn to play the piano: sheet music, by ear and (the relatively new way) through software programs such as Synthesia. The correct method differs from person to person. 3: Knowing the music theory / shortcuts The three ways you can learn to play the piano described above help you press the right keys at the right time. But it can be easier. Namely by knowing the underlying music theory and / or the shortcuts! Gosse also teaches music production (songwriting and producing). He is most specialized in the Logic Pro and Ableton studio programs. He also helps vocalists who want to accompany themselves on the piano. Feel free to contact us for a trial lesson, for a more detailed version of the above 3 points or if you want to know more!
