Growing with joy in playing – developing technique through favorite pieces.

One of the most exciting aspects of playing the piano is the ability to play favorite tunes from movies and Disney fairy tales. You can easily learn and play popular songs that both children and adults will enjoy. This makes practicing the piano even more interesting and inspiring, as you can enjoy familiar and beloved melodies.
Learn your favorite melodies with fun
In my lessons, we'll explore jazz and pop music together on the piano. We'll play the music you love. If you'd also like to learn classical works, we're happy to incorporate that music into the lessons. You'll also learn music theory and ear training (solfeggio) – in a relaxed and playful way, so the focus is always on fun.

My lessons are especially for you if you want to achieve freedom and ease at the piano.

As a composer, I develop my ideas through improvisation at the piano, which, trained through technique and knowledge, allows for a free discovery of one's own music.
So you not only learn to play your favorite songs, but also to understand them and to come up with similar ones yourself.

The lessons are completely flexible, and the focus is on fun and discovery. We can learn to play from sheet music or by ear. We can include harmony, rhythm, and ear training – whatever you prefer.

It is also possible to focus on only one of these areas if you want to prepare for an entrance exam or something similar [rhythm and ear training].

Mein Musiktheorie-Unterricht vermittelt die Grundlagen klar, verständlich und praxisnah. Egal ob Notenlesen, Harmonielehre, Intervalle, Tonarten oder Rhythmus – ich erkläre die Themen so, dass sie logisch und greifbar werden. Mir ist wichtig, dass du nicht nur auswendig lernst, sondern Musik wirklich verstehst und anwenden kannst. Der Unterricht wird individuell angepasst, sodass du in deinem eigenen Tempo lernst, egal ob Anfänger oder Fortgeschrittener. Gemeinsam machen wir Musiktheorie zugänglich und spannend!

What can you expect?
- For beginners: Reading notes, sense of rhythm and a playful introduction to the piano.
-For advanced students: Interpretation, expression, expanding repertoire and stage preparation.
- For children: Learning through play, with plenty of room for personal input and imagination.

Music is more than just the right notes; it's a language, an emotion, and a way to express yourself. Whether you're a hyperactive child finding peace at the keyboard, an adult finally wanting to learn that Chopin piece, or a teenager eager to play the latest pop hit: my lessons are for you.

I'm Catherine, a classically trained pianist with a broad repertoire of over 50 pieces, ranging from Chopin and Rachmaninoff to film scores and contemporary pop. My strength lies in conveying the EMOTION of music, not just the technique.

In a world with an increasing number of neurodivergent children—children who think and feel differently—I believe it's crucial to reach them in their own way. Music can spark their creativity and help them feel empowered to make their own choices. Whether you're looking for peace, a challenge, or passion, I'll tailor the lesson to your needs.

I am a 25-year-old British classical guitarist from London.
I have been living in Graz for 4 years, having completed my Master studies here at the Kunstuniversität Graz. I have been awarded prizes at many international competitions and I regularly perform both solo and duo at festivals and concert series' across Europe. Alongside classical music, I also regularly play pop/acoustic/latin/flamenco music around Graz.
I have been playing the guitar for almost 20 years now and therefore know the instrument like the back of my hand. Now I'd like to share my knowledge with you. I teach with absolute enthusiasm because I think that music is a wonderful way to express oneself – for me, music should be a part of everyone’s life.

I share what I've learnt about improvised composition on piano. I use the techniques for free playing that I've taught myself over the years (I'm an autodidact for as long as I can remember). I can help with free improvisation and composition.
