About Me
I am a Jazz, soul-pop saxophone player ...and a music teacher!As a musician for as long as I can remember, I have always been keen to teach others what I have learned.
I am a saxophonist, songwriter, and soul-jazz singer. I have a classical piano training and I play drums too. This allows me to play along with my students and to surround them very early in an inspiring musical atmosphere.
To be beautiful, music must be conceived clearly and simply, whatever the musician's level. It is also quite simply that it must be taught and learned.
Education
Diploma of the academy of music theory and classical pianoI studied at the Brussels Conservatory with Steven Houben, and with Erwin Vann in the Dutch-speaking section. Private lessons with Kurt Van Herck.
Some lessons with Chris Potter in New York in 1999.
Experience / Qualifications
I've been teaching in private schools and at home since 1993!Here's a tiny professional bio of myself ;-)
LAURENT is a saxophone player, a singer-songwriter from Brussels,
mainly in the Soul Jazz idiom. Self-taught musician at first, he also learned with the best musicians around, from Brussels to New-York. For about 20 years, he’s been successfully directing his own projects, featuring the most soulful jazz musicians of Belgium and abroad. He played a major role in the great bands of Daniel Romeo and Marc Lelangue.
The free-lance part of his career let him play with names such as Fred Wesley, Boney M, George Mc Crae, Percy Sledge, and on a very special evening with James Brown.

Joseph
Piano Lessons in Brussels for All Levels and Genres (age 6+)Have you always wanted to try playing the piano, but never found the time? Maybe you have played in the past but are looking for new input? Looking for a music teacher that is friendly, experienced, down to earth, and competent in all genres, from classical and jazz music to rock and pop?
My name is Joseph, I'm 28 years old and live in Brussels. I am offering individual, or duo, piano lessons (or music theory, harmony, combo, etc). I have a master degree in classical music and one in jazz, and 10 years experience playing live music, recording, and teaching. I have taught pupils of all ages and levels. I am a firm believer that a teacher must adapt his method and approach to every new student.
Umberto
Drum lessons in English and Italian, all levels welcome!Hi everybody!
I am Umberto, Italian professional drummer based in Brussel. I have a Bachelor in Jazz Drums and I have just achieved my Master in Jazz Drums at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel. I have 8 years of experience in music teaching, both private and in schools. I would like to teach drums and share with you this musical world.
About the lessons, my method really changes according to the needs of the student. It's very important for me to know a student and what he/she wants to achieve in order to create a specific program that suits him/her.
All levels are welcome: from the beginner to the more advanced, I am open to give lessons to everyone who wants to explore the drums and the beauty of music.
I am ready to work on all aspects of the drums: techniques, rudiments, grooves, fills, timing, musicianship.
As a drummer I have a lot of experience in many different music genres, both teaching and playing: from jazz to funk, from rock to pop, and also folk music in case you want to have a more percussive approach.
Last but not least, my idea as a teacher is to create a friendly enviroment: having fun is the most important thing in order to learn in a natural and effective way!
I am available to give lessons at my place. I have a rehearsal room with 2 drumsets, one for the student and one for me, so to show clearly and immediatly all the concepts. I have a PA system as well, so to be able to playalong with music. I can also come to the house of the student, but that would be a secondary option. For this last option, I will charge some extras for travel cost and time spent.
I don't have a car, so I will travel by public transport :)

Discover the guitar differently and intuitivelyThis course is above all there to make you want to play the guitar, let it be a pleasure! It will be based on the practice of the instrument, on the understanding and role of the guitar. The theory will be based on the progress of the practice. Step by step, practice and theory will thus be complementary, and will necessarily be useful!
Have you always dreamed of being able to play the guitar? it's time to get started!
Let the magic of music take hold of you and become the accomplished guitarist you always wanted to be!
Possibility of offering this course to one of your loved ones, a very appreciated gift for people who would like to embark on a musical adventure!

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.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Guitar, acoustic/electric, jazz guitar, music theoryHi, i'm Sasha and I've been actively teaching music for the last 10 years. I'm very passionate about music and guitar in particular and it brings me a lot of joy to be able to share this passion. I enjoy being able to explain a musical topic well, working on it together with a student and seeing them grow into musician they aspire to be. I don't think everybody who is a good musician can be a good teacher and I had some bad teachers in my life so I put a lot of effort in being on the top of my game. It is important for me to have a comfortable and friendly atmosphere during lessons, set individual goals based on musical tastes and have a structured, personalised approach.
This class is meant for students of different age groups and playing levels. From absolute beginners to more advanced players. The approach is individual and we will discuss the desired goals in advance and build the learning process around those. Some topics that are usually covered are rhythm guitar, being able to accompany yourself while singing (in different styles and techniques), lead guitar, improvisation (from basics to advanced), general knowledge of the fretboard and technique. There will very likely be some degree of music theory during guitar lessons as I am a firm believer that you have to understand the thing you're learning to fully master it, but no worries - it will only be as much as is necessary to have the control and understanding of the instrument in a chosen style (and if you are into music theory I will be more than happy to nerd out together!).
