Professional bassist – Groove, technique and modern styles (funk, jazz, rock) - Saint-Cloud - Private lessons

Professional bassist – Groove, technique and modern styles (funk, jazz, rock)

From 42 € /h

As a professional bassist active on stage and in the studio, I teach bass with a practical and musical approach, focused on groove, essential technique, and the joy of playing.

I have played in a variety of styles (funk, rock, jazz, metal, contemporary music) and I help my students develop true independence: better understanding their instrument, playing in rhythm, and integrating musically into a band.

My lessons are for motivated students who want to progress seriously, without wasting time on rigid or academic approaches.

Extra information

Each lesson is structured around your goals: improving your groove, developing rhythmic solidity, right- and left-hand technique, understanding different styles, and immediate musical application.

We work with songs, real grooves, and practical situations (playing in a group, accompaniment, and improvisation, depending on your level). Theory is only introduced when it directly supports the practice.

My goal is for you to know what to work on, how to work on it, and how to progress independently between lessons, for lasting results.

Music theory course (musical training in conservatory), keyboards (piano and organ), or even musical culture, by a former student of the National Conservatory of Music and Dance of Paris, music associate (2018, rank 4), graduated in Organ and Music Training from the Regional Conservatory of Boulogne-Billancourt, Master in Music and Musicology from Paris-Sorbonne University.

Learning music theory, reading notes and rhythms, developing your listening skills ... all of this is often scary. But there is no reason. I adapt to your level to make you acquire these skills effectively and definitely, without the weight of a conservatory class.

I base my classes on passion or creating this passion. Far from me the idea of following a basic and linear program of learning, when it comes to art, we talk about sensations, feelings and emotions! It is therefore necessary to create the musical envy in the student and for that three points are essential:

-Listening: What does the student want? Make it a job? a passion ? Discover an instrument? This is the most important point, because it allows to glimpse the desires of the student in order to prepare a tailor-made educational program so that it is in perfect adequacy with his training and his desires.

Curiosity: It's good to know how to play an instrument, understand it better! I give my classes a cultural dimension to be able to undertake music. It is very important to play well, to understand what we play to be able to grasp all the ins and outs and, who knows, reproduce one day in personal compositions.

- Fun: Playing an instrument is above all fun. This dimension is just as important as working your exercises because without pleasure, there will be no emotions. And without emotions the quality of the game is diminished ... It is for this reason that I try as much as possible to transmit my passion and what makes me feel the music since small to my student.

Music theory lessons for:
- those who want to start learning a musical instrument but cannot read scores;
- young people who need music theory support for exams at the music conservatory;
- those who need to catch up with particular music theory skills: rhythm, reading keys, singing right.

I am a young Italian professional cellist with 23 years of study and professional experience. I have been living in Paris for four and a half years. I earned a Bachelor's degree from the Turin Conservatory, then specialized in Baroque music in Paris, completing advanced studies at the Paris Conservatory, a Master's degree from the Versailles Conservatory, and a second Master's degree in Classical and Romantic music from the Saintes Conservatory (Abbaye aux Dames). I work with several renowned European early music ensembles such as Le Concert Spirituel, Accademia Bizantina, Les Ombres, and La Chimera. I was a semi-finalist in the prestigious MA Competition 2021 in Bruges. I also play modern music, and with my solo cello and electronic music project, I have had the opportunity to participate in major Italian festivals. In France, I regularly work with the French chanson trio Melquiades.

I offer cello lessons for all levels and all styles (classical cello, baroque cello and modern cello), with the possibility of following the lessons at home, by webcam or at home, in French, Italian and English.

The method that I adopted in my studies and that I teach is Suzuki: working on the student, nourishing his environment with stimuli and simultaneously developing his artistic and technical maturity, his morality and his character.
I also believe in group work, the possibility of playing with friends or colleagues, so I often suggest creating small ensembles to share and learn good music with others.

Currently finishing my Bachelor in Perfomance and Production at LCCM (London) I'm available to teach Guitar and theory mainly but I'm also available for debutant to intermediate for Bass, Keys, MAO.
Guitar is my main instrument, I've been playing for 12years and been teaching for 7. My teaching philosophy is to teach how to have fun with your instrument and develop communicating skills to be able to interact with others musicians you want to play with.

Hello, my name is Benoit, I am a jazz & contemporary music guitarist and guitar teacher for more than 15 years in music schools, associations and at home.

I studied Jazz at the Boulogne-Billancourt Conservatory and graduated from the American School Of Modern Music.

I seek with my lessons to develop your desire to make music and your creativity. My courses and content will allow you to immerse yourself in an exciting practice. Pleasure and requirement are the keywords of my learning method. You will quickly be able to play a current, rich and varied repertoire. In addition to private lessons, I provide you with free videos, scores & tablatures.

Who are the classes for?

Children:
From 7 years old, learning notes in a playful and progressive way. We explore music theory, tablatures, rhythm and melody thanks to card games specially developed for the youngest: recognition, 7 families, pair games, Memory, etc. Your child discovers the instrument and the technique while being able to quickly play familiar tunes! Classes usually last 30 minutes.

Teen:
The goal is not to spend too much time on the theoretical aspect of music theory (reading notes etc.) but to see the basic techniques of the instrument in order to be able to play and have fun quickly.

From the first lessons you will play the pieces of your choice, I will guide you and accompany you. Pleasure and satisfaction guaranteed!

Adults:
Have you always dreamed of learning to play the guitar? You played when you were young and want to get back to it? Did the "conservatory" method disappoint you or does it not suit you? My approach and my experience will allow you to learn or deepen the instrument and your knowledge at your own pace thanks to a multitude of pieces, scores, playbacks and tutorials. This will help you to develop or perfect the essential techniques for playing the guitar and also to play a repertoire to your liking. Classes usually last 60 minutes.

If you are self-employed or have flexible working hours during the day, I can come to your place of work. I can also give video lessons to coach you or if you are on the go.

For what levels?

Beginner:
You quickly take the instrument in hand, I guide you to acquire in a few sessions the technical gestures and the basic notions in order to be autonomous with your guitar.

Intermediate:
You develop a repertoire in line with your tastes and desires. I advise you and challenge you to make you progress.

Advanced:
You improve your technique thanks to the study of statements of reference guitarists and different Jazz / Rock / Blues / Gypsy styles such as: John Scofield, Wes Montgomery, Peter Bernstein, George Benson, Django Reinhardt etc...
Together we work on the writing and the balance of musical phrases, chord sequences, notions of tension and resolution, which will allow you to create your own music and refine your style. I advise you on the right software and musical software (writing/Sibelius, tabalture/Guitarpro, Recording/Ableton, creation/Reason etc...)

How are the lessons going?

Face to face, at your home, mine, or video, I adapt to your possibilities and your wishes.

Those who wish to meet other musicians can join a group. I also organize courses (between 8 and 10 people) during school holidays, on various subjects: Deepening your repertoire, improvising with pentatonics, group games, picking techniques, etc.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you want more information!

Musically & see you soon!
