About Me

Sébastien is both an electric and an acoustic bass player. Born in France in 1996, he started to play the bass at the age of thirteen.

He first practiced rock n’ roll music in Dijon, his hometown in France where he met Michel Thévenard, a bass teacher that taught him a « proper » technique to play the electric bass. Within this program of three years, he discovered Jaco Pastorius, Mark King, Richard Bona, Cliff Burton (first bass player of Metallica) and his taste was of course mainly orientated into rock and metal music.

In the meantime in highschool, he started a rock/fusion band called Muphin. In this band, we saw a few musicians that are continuing their studies and musicial travels. Among them : a jazz drummer called Emilian Ducret, now in Paris. They played a lot together in a brass band called Ze Tribu Brass Band that is managed by Zutique Production in Dijon.

In 2014, he started to study at the university and to learn the double-bass at the « Conservatoire Régional de Dijon ». After being quiet disappointed with the university and the lessons that he had in Dijon at the conservatory, he decided to move to Chalon-sur-saône (a southern city in Burgundy, one hour away from Dijon).

It is in Chalon-sur-saône that he really started to practice double-bass seriously and followed the lessons from Michel Martin-Charrières that introduced him to the New york modern jazz scene. They listened together to a lot of great jazz artists such as Gilad Hekselman, Reuben Rogers, Robert Hurst, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, George Garzone and of course Branford and Wynton Marsalis.But the list is non-exhaustive…

Sébastien continued to go back to Dijon to rehearse with Muphin and they released an EP in 2015. During his studies in Chalon between 2015 and 2019, he started to play with his trio Jazz by three (with Victor Prost on drums and Tom Juvigny on the electric guitar) in weddings, concerts and other events around Burgundy and the Great East of France. He also played and still play with All you need is swing, a swing band specialized in dance music from the 1930’s.

In April 2016, the band Muphin splitted an he started a collaboration with Filansen, a french singer from Burgundy with whom he recorded an album called « Issue de Secours » released in June 2017 and toured in the summer.

In 2017 after the tour, he decided to take a more jazz-orientated turn and stopped to be a sideman with Filansen. He created his quintet SH Group with who he toured in April 2019 in Burgundy and recorded his first EP (in June) that was released in March 2020.

2019 was also the year when Sébastien entered at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel after being graduated of a « Diplôme d’Etudes Musicales » in Chalon-sur-saône. He moved to live in Belgium and still study at this school. In his new land, he started to play with Thomas Sagne trio and other bands like Qelder but also a rockband called La Poudre. In 2020 and 2021 during the coronacrisis, Rob Swennen, a friend from conservatory, decided to create EVIGS where the low frequencies are assumed by Sébastien on the electric bass. EVIGS is an amplified jazz ensemble that is both influenced by hip-hop, jazz and rock.

Education

I obtained in 2019 a "Diplôme d'Etudes Musicales" in the conservatory from Chalon, in France (burgundy region). Since 2019, I'm studying in the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel to obtain a Master in Jazz music.

Experience / Qualifications

Several tours and concerts with my bands : SH Group, Délivrance, Evigs. I did Three albums already with a previous band Muphin and a singer called FILANSEN in France. I'm promoting my actual album called "SH Group" from the band that has the same name.

Singing / Voice coaching: private training & personalized workshop
Our teacher using, if necessary, an electro-acoustic guitar to better accompany your voice and guide some of its subtleties, the teaching philosophy is adapted to each level, according to the pace of work and motivation. Program : - musical techniques: theory (examples: support, modes, colors, effects such as vibrato, etc.) automatically followed, for each of the exercises, by practice (examples: exercises focusing on accuracy, sound production, "mountains Russian ", time, note hold, diction, vowels etc.) - work on breathing and breathing management - body awareness - stability - resonance - improvisation / free expression - improved vocal comfort - varied repertoire (adapting to your preference) - well-being by the vibration of the voice - personal or artistic development - accuracy, note keeping and precision - vocal modes including timbre - volumes: softness and power - sound colors: from dark to light - vocal effects, range requirements - nuances: volumes, mimics, attitudes, sound quality - exploration of musical styles (folk, pop, classical, blues, rock, song, World music ...) - improvisation, effects and vocal games, harmonies -interpretation: work on emotions, body language, stage presence. Objective: acquire a solid vocal technique allowing you to sing with accuracy, ease and expressiveness. Musical learning meanwhile, will develop your ability to listen and reproduce music, your sense of rhythm, your expressiveness, your creativity and musicality as well as reading sheet music. The work is focused on multidisciplinarity: voice, vocal health, music and bodily expressiveness, with an emphasis on the acquisition of an optimal vocal placement, on stress management in public and on interpretation. This progressive and tailor-made method aims to develop your voice: -Breathing techniques -Vocalises and technical exercises adapted to needs; - Repertoire work - Accompaniment for studio recording and scenic performance -dynamic exploration, diversification and release of one's voice while having fun and going beyond one's limits.

PLACES, FEES - Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Irene
Clarinet and theory lessons (harmony, history, analysis...) at all levels in Brussels
My teaching experience has ranged from children or adults starting from zero with the instrument to students with a medium-professional level. I specialize in clarinet, although I also teach piano at beginners' level and theoretical subjects, from music theory to harmony, analysis and music history. My methodology is based on adapting to the student, following different teaching strategies appropriate to each level and age. From playful methodologies with younger children, to specific methods with older students. I believe that adapting to the situation is always more important than following a rigid methodology. We will follow your own goals, and if you don't have them clear, we will create them together! Looking forward to meeting you!
