    About Me

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    Andreas grew up at the largest canal junction in Europe, between former coal heaps, power station towers and industrial ruins. At an early age he felt strongly drawn to music, began to learn the guitar and quickly realized that something was missing. Where is this groove, this deep, organic hum that he feels inside?

    He realizes that the bass offers him precisely these missing elements. The end of the search for the right instrument is at the same time the beginning of a new, much deeper journey:
    the perfect tone, your own musical language and personal development - for Andreas these things have been inextricably linked ever since.

    He begins studying at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, where he is taught by John Goldsby, Dieter Manderscheid and Robert Landfermann, who describes himself as a traditionalist in musical terms Modern. Because, modernity without tradition? Jazz without a story? It would be like the Ruhr area without collieries, New York without jazz and Andreas without a double bass. It just doesn't work.

    During his studies there are always new opportunities to test the limits of his instrument. He becomes an integral part of the federal jazz orchestra, writes for his own trio, goes on tour with pop bands and plays on every stage that can withstand the weight of him and his double bass. The encounters with musicians from different genres are a new challenge, let him work on his game and open up new perspectives for him. It is only logical that it is precisely these new perspectives that open up his latest field of research for him. What would music be without Mozart, Brahms or Beethoven? And what would the restless one be without taking on the task of researching the precision and sound aesthetics of the classical period?

    But what remains forever is jazz - whether as a technical research field, explosive experimental area or philosophical treatise. The best thing about this, he says, is that everyone can be who they are and what they want to be. It all depends on moving forward and finding your own, very personal language.

    Improvisation for beginners and intermediates (any instrument)
    For many people improvisation is a scary word and having to improvise in a group or band is an alarming prospect. However, this really does not need to be the case. As long as you have a basic knowledge of how to play your instrument you will be able to improvise. Once you know the principle of how chords are formed you will soon be improvising with ease. If you play a keyboard instrument you will be able to improvise your own pieces and be able to entertain your friends at a moments notice. On the other hand if you play in a band or a group you will be well equipped to do a real 'jam' session. Whether you play a single line instrument (flute, saxophone, trumpet, violin etc.) or keyboard instruments, this class is for you.

    Apollonia Maria
    Beginner to Advanced Lessons for Guitar Players for all ages
    After dedicating 14 years to mastering the guitar, I've developed a comprehensive understanding of guitar playing, encompassing both foundational techniques and advanced music theory. In these lessons, I'll be sharing the wealth of knowledge I've accumulated over this extensive period of learning. I will be covering a broad range of guitar techniques, including fingerpicking, strumming techniques, major and minor chords, power chords, barre chords, riffs, scales, finger warm-ups, practising any song of your choice, string bending, pull-offs, hammer-ons, harmonics, strumming patterns, and slides. All are provided with diagrams etc. For music theory, I will begin by covering the fundamentals, including notes, strings, and the musical 12-note chromatic scale alphabet on the guitar. As students progress, we will delve into more advanced topics such as tones, semitones, chord progressions, circle of fifths, scale formulas and chord terminology. Additionally, we will explore concepts like consonance and dissonance and pitch practice to develop relative pitch. (You have to be born with perfect pitch but you can learn relative pitch with practise!) Then advancing to jazz theory, we'll explore; jazz scale formulas, jazz chord progressions, swing techniques, major and minor 7th chords, major and minor 9th chords, dominant, augmented, half-diminished, diminished, sus2 and sus4 chords. And then jazz scales and the art of re-harmonising a song (changing the chords to jazz chords). All music theory will be intertwined with guitar practice as both can't be done without the other! One observation I've made while learning guitar through lessons is that information is often doled out incrementally, making it feel like a breadcrumb trail. Guitar knowledge and skills seem to be closely guarded and usually gatekept unless actively sought out. I strongly believe that the extensive knowledge I've acquired over 14 years of playing should be fruitfully shared in a more comprehensive and accessible manner, of course while being tailored to the pace of the students. In essence, I'm convinced that the depth of my understanding I've gained could be effectively conveyed and learnt within a two-year timeframe without including the time it takes to master the skill with practice, of course, I'd like to make it easier for people to learn the guitar and the theory behind it. I have also graduated with a distinction for my Music Performance and Production UAL Level 3 Course and have experience teaching guitar in London and Bristol before. The lessons will be taught in English so practising your English with me is also a plus, a foundational knowledge of English is required to take the lessons.

    Jazz/pop/groove/songwriting piano lessons for all levels of skill and all ages by ex-conservatory student!
    I've been playing the piano with great passion for 18 years, and over the past 5 years, alongside my studies and music-making endeavors, I've been teaching multiple students ranging from 7 to 50 years old. My expertise lies in truly understanding music theory and composing and improvising music. Having played in many pop and jazz (big) bands and creating daily compositions for solo piano and bands, I've developed an enthusiasm for these genres that I love to impart to my students. In recent years, I've also been heavily involved in music production, and lessons in this direction are also possible! I often use theory as a background to contextualize the songs we practice (which are often chosen by the student themselves). I use these songs to convey improvisation and composition skills. Additionally, I believe it's important for the student to develop their own way of learning. I strive to create a free yet disciplined learning environment.
