Discovered Daniel on this platform. His description spoke to me a lot, and I knew straight away that he was the teacher I was looking for. Once I found my sax, I organized my lessons with it. And I am more than happy to have this person as my teacher. He exudes experience, his ear is very fine and will surprise you

A good teacher and a very pleasant fellow! He specializes more on music theory and improvisation as opposed to technique and tone mastery. Struggles a bit with English, but he's eventually able to get his point across anyhow!
The lesson was great. Daniel knows and responds to the student's needs.

Daniel is a very good and patient teacher. He is a very skilled musician, he plays various instruments but saxophone is his very favourite. I highly recommend to take saxophone lessons from him. He is a thorough gentleman and excellent teacher.

I am a multi-instrumentalist (saxophone, transverse flute, keyboard), composer and arranger (SACEM member since 2012), excellent improviser. This course will allow you quickly, whatever your instrument and your technical level, to understand and master the chord sequences and the articulation of musical language according to these sequences. In addition, you will learn the most frequent or rare harmonic structures used by composers. And, theory notwithstanding, you will learn to develop your ear to identify harmonic structures. This course also includes an introduction to the history of jazz.

Saxophone lessons for all levels, jazz and other styles
I graduated from the CNSMDP (National Conservatory of Music and Dance in Paris) in Saxophone Jazz (Master). I teach saxophone for all types of levels and styles. I like to approach learning this instrument through oral transmission rather than through methods or scores. This is how I learned music and jazz in particular. (I also oriented my dissertation around solo recording and learning through imitation.) However, I read music very well and can work with scores if the student prefers to work that way, or if the style of music requires sheet music.

< about the course > I give piano lessons for people of all ages and levels from 5 years old, mainly students and adults. I respect each student's individuality and approach each from a different perspective. I propose a method adapted to each student. Having traveled through Korea, Poland, Germany and France, I have taught piano to students of different nationalities, and I aim to increase students' potential based on my many musical experiences and performance activities. I can help with many areas including touch, intonation, listening and music theory. Additionally, I can give advice on how to express music and creative expressions. Of course, depending on the level of the piano, the work can be chosen by the student or I can recommend it. I teach on an upright piano at home. Pianist and piano teacher of South Korean nationality.

Private guitar lessons at home or online.
Hello I am a jazz guitarist and I give guitar lessons for all levels at home (from 13 years old). I live in Porte de Bagnolet, but I can travel throughout Paris. I play regularly in big clubs like the Duc des Lombards and the Sunset, but also I have toured the United States and played in the legendary “Jazz at Licoln Center” and other important places like the Spectrum theater in Washington DC I worked in a Big Band for 4 years, so deciphering is one of my strong points, if you are interested, I use a very simple reading method that gives magnificent results. Now I am a student at the CRR in Paris and I give private lessons for my support and also for my musical projects.. My method changes depending on the needs of the student if you want to deepen your knowledge of harmony and musical theory to use it on the instrument, if you want to improve your technique, if it is just to learn songs and have fun , if you want to know the differences of each style, I will help you to have a clearer awareness in music and this will strengthen your abilities in interpretation, improvisation and composition, whatever the style. I will be happy to tell you more by messages on this site if you want to know more.

Piano lessons, all styles, jazz and improvisation.
Who hasn't dreamed of sitting down at the piano and playing? I started music almost 40 years ago. With a great experience of the scene, I can help you develop your ear, to learn the bases of the piano, the technical and theoretical notions which will allow you to better understand this language and to become independent. I also teach reading American writing so that I can read a jazz standard or a pop song. I can guide you through some exercises to improve your technique. Whether you are amateur or experienced, if you wish, we will address the vast universe of improvisation.

Lessons are open to students of all ages and skill levels. 🚀 The focus of the course revolves around the joy of playing music. Your favorite genres and pieces will take center stage, with a thorough exploration of their codes and secrets. Together, we'll delve into technical exercises and learn to play pièces of your choice or mine, enriching your repertoire and enhancing your playing style. 🤩 For example, we can reimagine pieces by applying advanced techniques such as the CAGED system, incorporating new chords, positions, and techniques like arpeggios and fingerstyle playing. This expands the instrument's capabilities and your playing skills, ensuring continuous progress and improvement. 👨🏻‍🏫 Upon request, the program also includes theoretical studies, which are presented in an accessible manner suitable for both beginners and experienced musicians. Exercises, pieces, and theoretical explanations are structured in a progressive order of difficulty.🔥 The theoretical program covers a range of topics, including guitar tuning, chord theory, scales and modes, finger picking techniques, strumming patterns, metronome practice, learning favorite songs, improvisation, harmony, melody, and rhythm theory.⚡️ Together, we'll embark on a musical journey tailored to your goals and aspirations, ensuring a fulfilling and enriching experience with the classical guitar.🔝☄️

Solfege & Oriental Solfege: Quarter Note - Rast, Bayet, Siga, Kord, Hijaz, Ajam, Nahawand - Major & Minor Scales
With over 8 years of experience as a Solfege, Oriental Solfege, Oud, and Oriental singing teacher, I am a Lebanese musician currently residing in Mönchengladbach, Germany. I honed my skills for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. Prior to my relocation, I taught at Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and also held private music lessons. As a concertmaster, I performed with the oriental orchestra "Loubnan Assalam" for over 5 years. My move to Germany was motivated by my pursuit of graduate studies at the University of Kamp-Lintfort. Fluent in English, Couramment en français, ولغتي الأم هي اللغة العربية. Aber leider spreche Ich ein bisschen Deutsch. Solfege, the foundation of music theory, is an essential tool for any musician who wishes to understand and create music. It provides a way to identify and communicate notes, intervals, and rhythms, and it is the key to developing musical literacy. In this class, you will delve into the world of scales, exploring the unique characteristics of Western and Oriental scales. We will study the following scales: Rast, Bayet, Siga, Kord, Hijaz, Ajam, Nahawand- Major & Minor Scales. In addition to these Western and Oriental scales, we will also introduce you to the quarter note, which is not traditionally found in Western music. It is a quarter note with a unique and distinct sound. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced musician, this class will provide you with the knowledge you need to use scales effectively for improvisation, singing, and playing any instrument. With this knowledge, you will be able to: * Read and write music (dictation) in solfège notation for both Western and Oriental scales. * Identify and communicate notes accurately in the context of various musical traditions. * Develop a deeper understanding of music theory and rhythmic concepts. * Infuse your musical performances with a broader range of expressive possibilities. We will use the book "المقامات الشرقية by Georges Farah" as the main reference for our study of Oriental solfège. This book is considered the best book in the Middle East to teach Oriental Solfège. Discover the power of solfège to enhance your musical skills and open up a world of new possibilities!
