Translated by Google. Click to view original.
You can come to me for violin lessons, folklore, jazz (theory), improvisation techniques and ensemble coaching.
Together we will look for your music and creativity. I make a lot of use of (together) playing and improvisation, technique is a guide for what you want to learn.
Getting to know the violin for young and old, playing with Balkan ornaments, improvising by ear or deepening in harmony or chord schemes, these are all possible subjects in my lessons.
My lessons are 30 or 45 minutes (not strict).

My musical activity centres around improvisation, be it in folklore ensembles between the Balkans and Mexico, in jazz or experimental and multidisciplinary constellations. I have been teaching music and violin for three years now to children and adults, privately or in groups.

Clases de canto en Amsterdam Jazz, Pop, Bossa Nova
Mi enfoque para las clases de canto se basa en desarrollar y mejorar la voz de manera técnica y expresiva, mientras disfrutamos del proceso de aprendizaje. 1. Conciencia Corporal: Comenzamos trabajando la postura, la respiración y la relajación para preparar el cuerpo como instrumento vocal. Teniendo mayor concierncia de nuestro cuerpo, tendremos mayor conciencia del uso de nuestra voz y nuestro canto será mas natural y fluido. 2. Calentamiento Vocal: Realizamos ejercicios específicos para activar la voz, incluyendo escalas, arpegios y técnicas de resonancia. Estos ejercicios ayudan a mejorar el rango vocal, la afinación y la proyección. 3. Trabajo de Repertorio: Elije una canción que te guste (o la elegimos juntos) y la exploramos en profundidad. Desarrollamos la técnica vocal aplicándola directamente a la interpretación, trabajando en la expresión, la dicción y el estilo musical. 4. Desarrollo Personalizado: Cada clase se adapta a tus necesidades y objetivos. El progreso se mide a través de canciones que reflejen tus intereses musicales, garantizando una experiencia única y motivadora. Mi objetivo es crear un espacio seguro y creativo donde puedas desarrollar tu voz, ganar confianza y disfrutar del arte de cantar.

Lucas
Learn how to play the violin at a beginners level or expand your skills at a higher level with fun and seriousness involved
My name is Lucas and I am 22 years old. I currently have a grade 8 in violin with the ABRSM curriculum, and have been playing the violin for over 15 years. While learning the violin, I have always been taught in a private manner, with a teacher just to myself so I would know exactly what kind of atmosphere you would need to learn quickly. The lessons I would provide are for any level of students, from a person that is just beginning or is maybe just interested in playing the violin to a bit more experienced players that are looking to improve their skills. I will make sure that you always have some work to do between lessons so that you can also improve your skills on your own and show me what you have learnt or practiced in between our lessons.
