Composition Tutoring and Music Theory Lessons (En and Pt)

Von 25 € /Std

Would you like to be able to learn how to write music? If so, my goal is to guide you through the learning process and give you the tools to become an autonomous musician: technical skills, understanding of music theory, sight-reading,
music history, orchestration, electronics, and last but not the least composition according to what may be for you.

I hold a master's degree in Composition from the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp and now I'm pursuing an Advanced Master's in Contemporary Music at the Royal Conservatory/School of Arts in Ghent. Besides my formation as a composer, I also perform and collaborate with artists from several art forms. I'm glad to share my experience with you!

If you're interested in starting online composition lessons with me, please send me a message so we can discuss which option would fit you best!

I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Über mich

Hi!
My name is Rúben. I am a Portuguese composer based in Antwerp. I came to Belgium to pursue my master's degree in Composition at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp. Since then I've been living between Portugal and Belgium developing performances with artists from several fields.

I would be really happy to meet you and teach you what composition may be. The lessons are fun and relaxed. We will talk about your expectations and the styles of music you would like to explore. I am a classically trained composer, but I'm glad I can share my experience with you :)

I will encourage you to get clear goals, support you in finding a good practice rhythm. We will decide together what pieces you can approach, depending on your tastes and your skills. I will teach you music theory and you might need to prepare a homework for each lesson. My goal is making you to be able to learn and play a piece by yourself in the shortest time possible.
I gladly teach beginners and advanced, students preparing for auditioning to conservatoire are welcome as well.
I teach on a grand piano (Ixelles) or I can come to your place (we need to discuss it).

I am a concert pianist, I've got my first diploma in Romania. I studied also in Austria (Salzburg) and in Switzerland (Zürich). I play in different chamber music groups, I accompany and I teach piano.

Cello Lessons for all levels:
My main goal with my teaching is to share my passion for music with my students. I believe strongly that this passion leads to discipline and curiosity which benefit all other aspects of one's life. Whether or not my students decide to pursue music as their main profession, I believe they have much to gain from learning the cello. Besides the discipline one learns, Music-making in itself is fulfilling!! :)

Conservatory Preparation:
In my experience as a musician living and working in Belgium for the past 9 years, I have noticed a gap in the musical education of young Belgian music students transitioning from Music academies into Conservatories. Oftentimes, these young music students seeking to enter conservatories do not possess the necessary skill level to enter higher education in Music. Through my private teaching, I intend to bridge this gap by catering specifically (though not exclusively) to these students. I strongly believe that there is a huge demand for this type of teaching which I am capable of providing.

If you want to learn how to play some chords, or you want to learn a song to impress your loved one, or you want to play that metal song from Stranger Things, then you've come to the right place!

This class is for those who are new to music, but have always wondered how it works!
That is why I offer the basics of musical knowledge.
The focus is on:
- music theory (understanding notes, rhythm the basics of harmony, solfege - in a FUN way)
- reading music (reading music from a score, sight- singing)
- Learning by doing: Exploring piano, voice, drums.. etc.
