Double bass, Arco, Pizzicato, Classic, Jazz, Film!

Dear music lovers,

I am a Master's graduate of HSLU Music and offer double bass lessons for anyone who would like to just play the double bass.

The offer is valid for everyone from beginners to advanced level musicians.

I am an active freelance musician and I am doing a second master pedagogy at the HSLU Musik. Therefore, I am especially happy to meet young musicians, which want to start playing the double bass or need some guidance for their practice, some ideas for pieces, and arrangements of their favorite music pieces. For children from 5 years of age, there are different possibilities for a double bass that fits their size.
For further information please contact me.

With kind regards,
Marko

About Me

I was born in Sofia (Bulgaria) in 1994, have been playing the double bass since 2005. In 2012 I went to The Netherlands to study with Prof. Peter Leerdam at CODARTS Rotterdam where I stayed until 2017. After that I came to Lucerne Switzerland, my current location to study with Prof. Božo Paradžik.

I have worked with artists like Yannick Nezet-Segiun, Valery Gergiev, Arie van Beek, Igor Gruppmann, Phillip Jordan, Vladimir Jurowski and Gordan Nikolitch. From 2012 till 2016 I was a member of the NJO(Dutch Youth Orchestra) and in 2016 and 2018 played with GMJO (Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra). The tours brought me to France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, Portugal and others. I have attended master classes with Matthew McDonald (Solo Berlin Phil.), Matthew Midgley (Solo Rotterdam Phil., Luis Cabrera (Solo NetPHO) and Renault Garcia Fons (Solist) and others. 

In the last years i have played with many professional orchestras, including CHAARTS Zurich and Doelen Ensemble, Rotterdam. In 2016 and 2018 I played with the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester in the most prestigious concert halls of Europe, such as the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Musikverein Vienna or the Royal Albert Hall.

In addition to my work abroad, I am also active in various ensembles and orchestras in Switzerland. In October 2018, I played chamber music at a medical symposium in the Marianischer Saal, Lucerne, and as the Solo Bassist of the Junge Philharmonie Zentralschweiz in the KKL.

Violoncello lessons for children and adults (in German, English, Italian or Spanish)
Learning music is about enjoying life. That's what a teacher told me when I was little, and I want it to be that way for the rest of the people, regardless of how much knowledge and freedom they want to achieve. Hello! My name is Isabel, I am a Spanish cellist. I love teaching, I also learn a lot from it, and I have experience teaching both children and adults in institutions such as the Music School of Lugano. In my lessons I focus on building a good physical and mental relationship with the instrument in order to learn how to handle it healthily and effectively. Always apply theory in connection with practice. I now play as an academic with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra. The price of the class can be adjusted to your capabilities. I can give lessons in German, English, Italian and Spanish.

Lisa
Beginning or perfecting in music - learning to play clarinet
''Once upon a time there was a breath. Lighter than a whisper, it melted into the wind, lamenting that it was never heard...'' But before continuing this story, a little introduction is in order. 🙋🏻‍♀️ | Hi ! I'm Lisa and I study clarinet at the Lucerne University of Music. 🎶 | But beyond the pleasure of playing on stage, alone or in a group, I love to make my passion known and allow other people to become familiar with my instrument. 👩🏻‍🏫 | For a few years, I have been teaching the clarinet online and at the music school of Crans-Montana. But back to the story. “...One day, he heard in the distance the chords of a guitar accompanying a joyful and magical song. From that day on, the little breath decided to become music. So he let himself be carried away by the wind, which deposited him next to a clarinet. Curious, the breath slipped into the mouthpiece and slid down to the pavilion. It was fun, a bit like a slide...'' But what is a clarinet? Let's take a short break in history to clear up this point. 📖 | The clarinet is a wind instrument of the woodwind family. It is made of ebony and has 18 keys that allow the musician to play all the notes. 🎤 | It is the instrument closest to the human voice. Indeed, it can sound very loud or very soft, very high or very low and has a wide variety of sounds. 🌬 | To make a sound with his clarinet, the musician blows into the mouthpiece and vibrates the reed. A bit like when you make a blade of grass hiss by blowing on it. Let's see how our breath is doing. “... He then gathered all his strength and blew a big blow into the beak. Nope ! It didn't seem like the right method. He then tried to tap on the reed and slipped through the holes and the keys. Until, finally, the breath becomes a melody...'' Turn your breath into music too! 🎺 | Playing a musical instrument will allow you to express your creativity and relax while developing your brain. Plus, seeing your progress will make you proud and gain self-confidence. 💡 | The clarinet is a practical instrument. Indeed, it disassembles into 5 parts that you can store in a small box and take with you everywhere! 🇨🇭 | In Switzerland, there are many harmonies and other ensembles where the clarinet has a prominent place. You will therefore be able, as soon as you have mastered the basics, to meet lots of new people with whom to share your passion. Let's finish the story. “...Other breaths, strings and beats, impressed by the beauty of the melody, found himself a musical instrument too. This is how the 1st orchestra was born! I am available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) in Valais and during the week in Lucerne. Do not hesitate to contact me for more information ☀️

Celia
Piano (Classical, Jaz, Pop) and Music Theory/Composition
I have experience in teaching both at a private level and in schools and training programs in both music and languages ​​(Spanish / English). I have worked with both children and adults in the preparation of official exams. I am a graduate from Music in the specialty of Piano at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester and work both as a teacher and professional musician. During my studies, I took courses in music pedagogy, training and gaining experience in various methodologies. I have a creative and flexible approach, adapting to the needs of the student. I have experience teaching various styles (jazz, classical, pop) as well as music theory and composition. I like to explore a variety of styles and activities so that the student can choose their path and develop their musicality in all aspects.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

Pietro
Learn Piano and Music Theory with a CREATIVE APPROACH - Jazz, Classical, Pop, Rock...
Hey there! Do you want to start a new hobby? Do you already play the piano and you want to improve your skills with a creative approach to the instrument? Then I think I can help you! I can teach you basic and advanced concepts of any style on the piano (classical, jazz, pop-rock...), and if you like improvisation and jazz then we get along even better! I offer very personalized classes based on your level and interests. My approach to teaching strongly takes the student's CREATIVITY into account, but without forgetting that a good knowledge of MUSIC THEORY and PIANO TECHNIQUE are essential. Constant practice is recommended for better results, although it is not strictly required.
