I'm an italian professional violinist graduated in the Hochschule der Kunste in Bern and a member of Argovia philharmonic, Sinfonietta Lausanne and City Light Symphony Orchestra. I teach children and adults from beginner to advanced level. My classes are for everyone! I adapt my teaching method to every student's profile, wish and need in order to learn faster and improve violin skills having fun.

Gianni
Electric bass and double bass lessons for all levels in Basel, at my home or at yours.
My name is Gianni, I'm a professional musician, currently living in Basel and doing my master's degree in double bass at the Musik Akademie Basel. I've been playing and studying music since I was 7 years old; I started with classical guitar, then electric guitar and electric bass, then I started double bass and lately I'm learning saxophone. I would say my main instruments are guitar and bass and I have been teaching these for 5 years to students of different levels and different aspirations. For me it is very important to understand what the student wants and needs to guide him on the best path; I also try to always make the classes a fun learning environment. I could teach at my school - the jazz camps, in Basel - or at the student's home.

Hanna
Violin lessons or the Art of taking life on the safe side :-)
Orchestral musician and chamber musician, holder of a double master's degree in pedagogy and performance in France and abroad, I would be happy to accompany you on the way to learning violin. With 15 years of experience, I teach musical initiation, music theory and the viola that I have practiced in chamber music and of course the violin, my main instrument with which I perform in several orchestras and ensembles. Since I have been teaching violin and music, not a day goes by that I tell myself that motivation and pleasure are the biggest drivers of learning. This is why I always favor during my classes a relaxed atmosphere that is conducive to work. Technique is of course very important to me, but it is not just an end in itself.

Bianca
GRADUATED PIANIST FROM PARIS CONSERVATORY AND STUDENT IN SINGING GIVES PIANO AND VOICE LESSONS !!!!!
Are you interested in : -learning piano or singing? -improving your piano level? -learning music theory? -practicing your pieces with an experienced pianist (correpetition)? I am the person for YOU !! My name is Bianca and I am 24 years old. Having grown up with music from my very first steps, I began learning the piano at the age of 4. My long piano studies, beginning with the Suzuki method (adapted for young children) and ending with a Master's degree at the Conservatoire Supérieur National de Musique et de Danse de Paris, have forged a solid piano technique and school, enabling me to help all types of students, beginners and professionals alike! My studies at the Schola Cantorum de Paris and the CRR de Saint-Maur led to five years at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris, where I obtained a Bachelor's and Master's degree under the direction of Claire Désert, enabling me to experiment with different schools of piano technique, in particular the Russian method. The many masterclasses I attended with internationally renowned teachers such as Tatiana Zelikman, Lilya Zilberstein and Ruben Dalibaltayan enriched my musical knowledge, which I'd now like to share with you! My passion for opera singing was born around the age of ten and has only grown with age, leading me to start my Bachelor's degree in opera singing at the Musik-Akademie Basel in 2021 in Marcel Boone's class. The invaluable advice I received from renowned teachers such as Margreet Honig, Elene Golgevit and Snezana Stamenkovic inspired me to share my enriching knowledge of vocal technique from the Bel Canto school. My aim is to build a healthy vocal technique so that your voice is free and brilliant. Don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

Clara
Cello lessons from Bach to jazz to improvisation
Cello lessons should arouse joy and curiosity. My students will explore their instrument in their own way and find their own sound. It doesn't matter whether it's classical, new music, pop/jazz or improvisations, because it's about making music. Since I have a very broad background - I studied classical education, now I'm studying new music, I play in a band and a string quartet and improvise regularly - I'm very happy to pass on my knowledge and experience. The lessons will be very individualized because I respond to the students' wishes and ideas. Group lessons for up to three people are also possible. Since not everyone can afford lessons, I have a solidarity pricing system. Just ask directly if it concerns you.

Nicolas

I am a music pedagogy graduated teacher (master of performance and master of pedagogy in Paris and Basel). Love sharing my passion with others : have a 10 years experience in 2 music schools and high schools in Paris. Am also performing concerts as a pianist and organist. Focus are set on body and technical skills, music theory and knowledge necessary to play all kinds of score or improvise, interpretation and artistic view of the pieces. Patience, positivity, respect and open mind are keys for success. I’m also very attentive to the needs and wishes of every pupil and try to bring you where you want (open with repertoire etc). As a composer and arranger I can also teach you harmony, composition and improvisation in different styles including jazz, songs and pop.

Clémence
- Piano and Violin lessons for all ages -
Hello, I offer private Piano and Violin lessons, for all ages and all levels (beginners, intermediates or more advanced) in the region of Saint-Louis, Huningue, Village-Neuf, and Basel, from September 2023. I introduce myself: I am Clémence, a musician graduated from the Manchester Conservatory (Bachelor of Arts degree) and from the Basel Conservatory (Master of Performance). I also started music with the Piano, which I continued for 9 consecutive years before devoting myself entirely to the Violin. My method is to adapt to each of you, in response to your personal goals. Whether it's for the pleasure of discovering the instrument, to play together, or even to help you achieve a specific objective (preparation for musical exams, concerts...). For the youngest children, depending on their age, I offer more fun activities to discover music, in the form of musical awakening for example. My main experience has been teaching children and adolescents (between 6 and 14 years old), but I am also interested in teaching adults. I hope to meet you very soon! Clemency
