About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I am a happy and fulfilled musician.

Falling in love with the violin at the age of 3 I was lucky to know very early what I wanted to do later.

It is therefore quite natural that I began studying classical violin (and then piano and lyric singing) until I obtained the Diploma of Teaching Violin (stream I) at the "Conservatoire Supérieur and Académie de Musique Tibor Varga ".

I feel extremely fortunate to have been able to model many of the leading international artists who have inspired me with a taste for excellence, effort, patience and a great musical openness and great want to learn more and more.

The meeting with the famous Hungarian violinist Tibor Varga was for me the trigger of my professional musical artistic life and certainly the greatest influence of my career as a musician.

This constant quest for freedom of expression has led me to explore many musical styles and seek to unlock their secrets. I embarked on artistic challenges and surprising collaborations in order to test and explore all the possibilities linked to my favorite instrument the violin and its electric and MIDI variants. Above all I have explored up and down the pleasure of improvising, the stage and the contact with the public.

Jonathan is an absolutely fantastic teacher who I can only recommend! Very friendly and attentive to his students, he adapts according to our needs, our desires, our strengths and our vulnerabilities. He has the gift of making music theory exciting, whereas with me it was not a foregone conclusion! He knows how to combine theory and practice, allowing his students to master their piano very quickly, whether to learn pieces, compose music/melodies or simply improvise. I only took 5 lessons initially but am sure I will continue my lessons with Jonathan for as long as I need! We can only praise Jonathan as a teacher given the excellence that characterizes him, but also as a person because his kindness, humility and benevolence are great. Thank you to him for everything he has passed on to me and continues to pass on to me!

This piano course is intended for beginners and intermediate level pianists. In order to give you the best possible training, in my professional audio studio, I use several cameras to cover all the necessary viewing angles and the AKG C414 XL II reference microphone so that you can hear me in the best possible possible conditions. Experienced teacher graduated from the "Conservatoire Supérieur et Académie de Musique Tibor Varga", I particularly like teaching improvisation so that students can quickly develop their musical sense and have fun with the instrument. I also integrate into my program (in parallel) the reading of musical scores and classical pianistic technique.

Violin lessons, music theory, musical improvisation, chamber music
With 27 years of experience as a violin teacher, artist and composer, I transmit my love of music in a creative, playful and holistic way. I have developed a method that adapts to each student according to their needs, levels and desires. I attach great importance to creating a caring and relaxed atmosphere where the student can flourish and develop both a solid technique and learn self-confidence. We will also discuss how to work efficiently and calmly and we will develop the qualities necessary to express yourself freely with your instrument. We will talk about musicality, physical well-being (the importance of breathing!), attentive listening and we will take the time to explore while having fun. If necessary, the basics of music theory will be learned gradually. Although I have a classical background I enjoy teaching a variety of music (Celtic, folk, klezmer, tango, jazz, films...) and I encourage my students to discover the most beautiful melodies in the repertoire and sometimes even to improvise or compose together. I often play chamber music (piano/violin) or violin duets with my students. My course is aimed at anyone who has the time to work on their instrument, children from 4 or 5 years old, adolescents, seasoned amateurs, beginners or advanced adults... Do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information. I look forward to meeting you very soon!

Violin lessons: Fun-Filled journey! Lessons for children and adults!
Hello everyone! My musical journey began when I was just four years old, starting with the piano. Later, at the age of seven, I eagerly embraced the violin, adding its enchanting melodies to my repertoire. I achieved a professional mid-grade in both piano and violin. Fueled by my love for music, I moved to Rotterdam, Netherlands, to pursue a Bachelor's degree at Codarts University of Arts. Under the guidance of teachers like Natasha Morozova and Hed Yaron Meyerson, I refined my skills and nurtured my artistic vision. After completing my Bachelor's studies, I continued my musical exploration in Codarts' Master's program. Alongside my classical training, I've always been intrigued by the therapeutic potential of music. In 2023, I earned certification in Music Therapy, expanding my horizons and deepening my connection to the healing power of music. In collaboration with my colleagues, I am member of the Olga Trio. Our mission is to highlight the works of women composers throughout history. Our debut performance at the IV Concurso Nacional de Interpretación de Obras de Mujeres Compositoras was a proud moment, affirming our commitment to amplifying diverse voices in music. Beyond classical music, I've always been drawn to exploring different genres and styles. As a member of the Jong Metropole Orchestra in 2023, I relished the opportunity to collaborate with musicians from diverse backgrounds, pushing the boundaries of traditional musical conventions. In every note I play and every project I undertake, my passion for music shines through. It's a journey of exploration, growth, and discovery, and I'm excited to continue sharing my love for music with the world. I've been teaching during the last 8 years. I am flexible with the students needs and I embrace fun and creativity in my lessons.

I am an Albanian violinist, with a Bachelor degree in Classical Music (Violin) and Musicologie in Sorbonne University. Over the years, my experiences with different youth and professional orchestras all around Europe have made me understand that music is important not only for professional musicians but also for everyone.

In this violin course you will learn a foundation in learning one of the most rewarding instruments in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Grip the bow, hold the violin, have the perfect hand position and enjoy playing the strings while learning how to read the notes, the violin rhythm and technique. Students will generally learn better if they feel a connection developing with their teacher, whether that’s through humour, showing care about their development, or making sure teacher devote time equally to all students when in a group.
