Music Production and Sound Design for people starting from all levels

Von 43.04 $ /Std

My lessons develop in a flexible and targeted way according to the needs, peculiarities and desires of the students. To a practical approach that stimulates creativity from the first lesson, theoretical knowledge will be added to convey as complete a knowledge of the subjects as possible. A typical first lesson of music production takes place in two phases: a first phase of conversation between teacher and student on the motivations, aspirations and objectives of the student, a second phase of research and exposure of the instruments best suited to the needs in question and a third phase of practice. Dealing with purely creative but also technical subjects, the lessons are held in a flexible way but also aimed at the technical consolidation of the students.

Über mich

I am a composer and live performer from Italy, Master's graduate at the Institute of Sonology (The Hague), and currently a Research Associate there. I have been teaching workshops and private lessons in music production, sound design and computer music (programming in Max Msp and SuperCollider) for many years. I don't have a specific method, as, being the subject intrinsically creative, I adapt the classes to the student's abilities, inspirations, and interests. Even in the more practical courses, I always give space for a theoretical part regarding sound and acoustics, as theoretical knowledge represents a beneficial tool for any artist dealing with sound. I am active as a solo live performer and as a composer of acousmatic music and for multidisciplinary projects (theatre, dance, video etc.).
I am open to students of any level, starting from 14 years old.

This course is intended for those who wish to start their own productions in computer music (Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Music Maker, GarageBand, Reaper ...), and who do not know where to start, or those who are looking for new techniques of production or would like to improve their sound.
Graduated in musicology, composer, beatmaker, lyric singer and multi-instrumentalist, my approach encompasses many aspects that are rooted in the diversity of my musical experiences. I worked as a singer on classical and variety projects (Midi Minimes, Festival van Vlaanderen, Ensemble Astoria, Josh Groban) and as a producer and composer on contemporary dance shows (Kaaistudio, STUK, CC Berchem, M-Museum Leuven) . I also participated in a series of multichannel projects (Mixage Fou, 3DSound MONOM, Berlin, BACAtelier Leuven). I'm also currently collaborating on pop, variety, synthwave, trip-pop, world bass projects. I was also able to work on sound to image projects (Video, Performance, VJ / Mapping).

Here is what I propose

Introduction to sound theory (physical and digital bases)
initiation into music theory and music theory,
The stages of music production from idea to Mastering.
How to create your home studio? What material? Where to start?
Start with my sequencer
User interface - Libraries - Backup - Export - Display ...
Start a composition (Audio, Samplig, Clip, Midi, Transport)
Arrangements, instrumentation (how to switch from a piano / voice demo to a pop production, for example).
improvisation, jams with loopers, ableton live, and controllers (midi instruments, drum sequencers, iPad, Ableton Push), effects and macros.
Vocal processing: taking, microphones, performance and interpretation, how to improve sound quality, comping, effects, backings.
Mixing: Balance, Panorama, critical listening, eq (minimum phase, linear phase, dynamics), dynamic processing (compressors, multiband, side-chain), Bus, Send / Return, parallel processing, volume riding, automation.
Mixing and arrangement, register, harmonics.
effects and plugins (filters, delay, echo, chorus, flanger, phaser, bitcrusher, saturation, stepper, ...).
Broadcasting platforms: aggregators, streaming, bandcamp, SoundCloud ... which one to choose?

Sample repair, noise reduction, spectral processing.
Formats:
Stereo, Mono, Mid-Side, Surround, Formats B, Ambisonic, Binaural, (decoders, plugins, mixing)

With 27 years experience and success as a qualified Music teacher (PGCE), I specialise in giving high quality, structured lessons on the piano, violin and guitar that are tailored to each student and which are designed to offer attainable goals as well as being enjoyable and fun for the student. The key and essence of my lessons is for the student to always enjoy learning as much as I enjoy nurturing, guiding and helping the student to improve.

I have a history of successful exam results in all of the Associated Board Exam colleges as well as with Trinity Rock School. I am happy to offer lessons for students who wish to learn for enjoyment as much as to pass exams .

Do you have ideas in your head but you still haven't taken the plunge? Whether you are a novice or an experienced musician, I suggest you dive into production with a tailor-made course on Ableton Live software.

I have been a passionate musician and producer for over 10 years (trained guitarist), and I am here to help you discover and master all the subtleties of Ableton.

Who should attend :

- You are a beginner and you want to discover the interface while composing your first song.
- You are an intermediate or experienced user and would like to perfect your skills and learn more advanced techniques.

What you can expect:

For beginners :
> Discovery of the Ableton Live interface while creating your first composition
> Practical approach without theoretical overload
> Optimization of the course according to your objective and your musical desires
> Provision of resources (packs, templates, presets, etc.)

For Intermediate and Advanced Users:
> In-depth analysis of your compositions with personalized feedback
> Fixed weaknesses and improved existing songs
> Exploring new production techniques, sharing tips, shortcuts and templates
> Section on sampling, sound design and mixing

Examples of topics covered:

- Interface: you will learn how to navigate between Audio and MIDI, use the right tools/plugins, create templates and use essential shortcuts.
- Recording: I will explain to you how I go about properly recording voices or instruments while optimizing the acoustics of your room.
- Composition: learning to use virtual instruments, introduction to sound design and exploration of creative composition techniques (no music theory necessary).
- Arrangement: effectively structure a piece like the pros to avoid redundancy.
- Mixing: control of effects, integration of external plugins, mixing techniques.

Adaptability: depending on your progress, your motivations and your musical preferences, I continually adjust the course to target the specific aspects that you wish to explore or strengthen.

If you're interested, send me a message and I'll answer all your questions :)

I teach children from 5 years old and adults, beginners and advanced. Reading music is integrated with learning to play the piano.
My piano technique is according to Jose Iturbi's method.
To learn to play I work for beginners with the piano method of Nancy and Randall Faber: Piano Adventures.

One-to-one music lessons inspired by the teachings of Suzuki, Havas, Hoppenot, and Galway.

The lessons are adjusted according to age, level, and interests. The most important is that the student will learn in an enjoyable way for them.

It is only possible to take 45 min. lessons when the student receives more than one lesson a week -which is highly recommended for anyone that might want to become a professional musician. Lessons longer than an hour are also possible for anyone over 14 years old.

Other possibilities, a combination of instrumental/theory lessons and prices can be discussed.

To learn to play the piano well, you have to be passionate! And what better method than by learning your favorite songs! This is exactly what I propose. First, you will learn to play by memory and some easy tricks, then you will learn to play with scores that I will personally write to adapt them perfectly to your level!

I learned by being at the classical academy for 12 years and giving lessons for almost 10 years, that in the end, it is the students who are passionate about the pieces they play, who will become good pianists.
As an additional option, I offer composition and harmony lessons, to ensure that step by step you can compose small pieces up to multi-instrument arrangements.

I am already looking forward to meeting you and starting your classes very soon!
