Piano teaching to students at all levels, from beginners to piano concertos. Theory and aural training are part of the lessons.

Individual lessons at my flat in Rue Breydel (Schuman). I have a long experience of teaching, as well as playing and giving lecture recitals. One of my pupils came second in the 'Grand Concours pour les Amateurs' in Paris, and others won prizes for the highest Grade 8 ABRSM.
But I am also experienced at teaching beginners and helping them to read music, using new and old methods. If you want to play the piano, then I am ready to help you!

About Me

I have a long experience of piano teaching, and many of my former pupils are now professional musicians. There is a section on my teaching, my concerts, and my conducting, and a video of giving lectures in English and French. I prefer to give piano lessons in English as I use the English system of notation.

I live in the center of Brussels and I am looking for pupils at all stages - from beginners to piano concertos.

Education

ARCM with Honours and special harmony paper before five years (1965-70) at the Royal College of Music in London, where I won several prizes. A year studying at the Liszt Academy in Budapest (1971). Diploma at the International conducting course at Kromeriz in Czechoslovakia (2016).

Experience / Qualifications

I have given concerts in Britain and France: solos recitals, concertos chamber music, and accompaniment. A performance of Mozart's concerto K488 was broadcast on BBC Radio 3. I have made two CDs, one of French chamber music, including the trio for oboe, bassoon, and piano by Poulenc, and the Story of Babar, the Elephant; and I recorded Schubert's Winterreise with the French bass Marc Fouquet in 2006. More recently, I have been conducting choirs, with an acclaimed performance of the Brahms Requiem in 2016. Another choir sang Mass at the Vatican in 2017.

Jacob
Professional guitarist graduated from the Conservatory (DEM in France) gives guitar lessons all styles and all levels in Brussels
I graduated from the Conservatoire de Nice CNRR (France) in jazz guitar. I studied there for seven years with renowned professors such as Jean Paul Ceccarelli (Sting), Pierre Bertrand, Robert Persi or Philippe Petit. My teaching method is flexible and I adapt it to the needs and desires of the student. We will discuss the technical work on the instrument, the knowledge of the neck and chords and the rhythm. With or without solfege. The goal is to provide the student with the necessary tools so that he can continue learning by himself at home.

With my experience, I offer violin and music theory lessons. I have been teaching the violin for 10 years, while continuing my activity as a substitute at the National Orchestra of Belgium and at the Brussels Philharmonic. I adapt my lessons to each student, by offering courses focused on technique or more free, according to each person's expectations. My adaptability extends to all levels and all ages!

Elvis
Violin and Piano lessons for all ages and levels.-
Music is my passion and it is a joy for me to pass it on: My educational experience and my training allow me to teach music with games and playful methods in order to learn and play with pleasure, and I adapts the pieces and methods according to the level of the students and their ages.

Laurie
Piano teacher for beginners of all ages: I bring my own electric piano to teach you!
Today, a multidisciplinary artist with a passion for teaching, I entered the Conservatory of Music very early on to learn piano and music theory: at the age of 6. For a little over a year, I have been teaching children between the ages of 4 and 6. My lessons are presented as a fun musical awakening: - know how to stand in front of a piano, - hand positioning, fingering, - learning rhythm and scales, - note recognition, - musical discovery and listening. However, I propose to accompany any beginner, whatever their age (child, teenager, adult). I mainly travel to homes, my Casio piano keyboard on my back, to offer those who do not yet have one the opportunity to try and tame the instrument.

I will help you learn new pieces and a little theory and solfege. The primary goal of this course is to make you enjoy playing in your spare time without having to practice too much. - a professional course: in this course I will help you reach the level of a professional musician. I will give you an insight of how to prepare a piece or pieces for a competition or an audition.

Graduated in Jazz and Classical Music at the French Conservatory, I can teach the science of reading, rhythm, melody, harmony, the ability to use one's ear to better effect, etc...

Aurian
Conservatory graduate gives piano lessons for adults and children
I have always been passionate about music, I play three instruments, and I recently finished my piano studies at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in the class of Piet Kuijken. I have always found that the end goal of music was sharing, and that's why I orient myself strongly towards everything that is done in groups: chamber music, orchestra, but also teaching, via which I can also share my passion. My course is for everyone: do you want to start from scratch? No problem, I also give lessons in music theory and musical culture which will make a perfect complement to make you a complete musician. Have you already had lessons at the academy but want a more personalized or just a different approach? I offer methodical monitoring for each student and I adapt my course to all profiles. Do you want to prepare for an exam (academy or conservatory entrance)? I become your personal coach and invest myself personally in your success. My course is aimed at students who want to learn technique and repertoire methodically as well as at those who want to learn for fun or for the purpose of learning a specific piece.
