Electric bass and music theory beginner to advanced

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
EN
Music is fun, it should remain so for anyone studying an instrument. After years of boredom, I found a method that worked for me and may work for you.
On the program, there will be your favorite songs, theory (scales, arpeggios and notions of harmonies) to be able to improvise bass lines and melodies on any song, read any exercise or score .
With more than 15 years of experience on stage, I use my knowledge to make each student feel good on stage, with friends during a jam or solo at home.

Music is fun and should stay fun for anyone studying an instrument. After many years being bored of practicing the same things, I've found a method which worked for me and could maybe work for you.
We'll study your favorite songs but also overview some theory (scales, arpeggios, notions of harmony) to enable you to play and improvise bass lines or melodies over any song. After 15 years+ of experience on stage I share what I've learned along the way so every student of mine can feel good on stage, at friends for a jam session or cozy at home.

About Me

Hello young bassist !

My name is Yannick, I'm 31 years old, I'm a bass and double bass player from the region of Verviers, in the Liège province. I have lived 5 years in the Netherlands for my bachelor in jazz and arrived in Bruxelles in 2021 in order to study for my master in jazz in the Royal Conservatory of Brussels.

I started out playing concerts at age 15 without stopping ever since. I've played a fair amount of projects in a fair amount of styles on stage, playing funk, pop, jazz, reggae, soul, RnB, electronic music, rap, salsa, flamenco, etc. combining my theoretical and sound knowledge as well as my pedal knowledge and sound designing.

Learn bass in a practical and fun way with private lessons
The bass is an incredible instrument that binds a musical ensemble. It is an instrument which links rhythm to melody, which gives the vibration to a piece and the punch that we like to hear. Bass brings the background power to a song and can be played in all styles of music. Through bass lessons, you will learn the necessary technique to be comfortable on this instrument, the theoretical concepts that will allow you to better understand the music and the combination of the two to play in a group. This course aims to make you love the bass through practical learning, both from a rhythm and theory point of view, from an ear point of view and dexterity. The practice of your favorite songs combined with exercises will allow you to reach a good level.

About me I’m a passionate musician with over 20 years of experience playing acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, and 15 years of teaching others to share my love for music. Growing up, I spent 8 years playing in a church band before heading to university. Although I went on to study engineering and then human resources, I continued teaching music — whether online or face-to-face.

My lessons will give you the tools to play by ear, enabling you to join in effortlessly and confidently without relying on chord charts. Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or refining your technique, I offer a flexible and personalised approach to help you achieve your musical goals.

Creative bass guitar lessons where the songs are central
Bass guitar lessons with a holistic, "all-round" character. We will practice the lessons together and we will use your best songs for this. I believe that if you have deep emotional contact with a piece of music, the learning process will also become faster, cozier and smoother! Our main themes: - technique and overview of the bass (where?) - general music theory, ear training (why?) - creative improvisation and composition (what?) - rhythm, tempo, phrasing and feeling (how?) For adults and teenagers, lessons last 1 hour. For all levels from absolute beginner to conservatory level.

Private guitar, bass or music theory lessons for all levels
Music is an exciting field, having dedicated my life to this field for years, I wish to pass on the knowledge I have accumulated to students who are curious to learn and of all levels! I would adapt to your desires and tastes to make tailor-made courses to meet your needs and satisfy you.

Eyal
Guitar, Bass Guitar, Music Production, Song Writing, and Music Theory
Eyal has taught hundreds of students over the past 15 years, both guitar and piano next to music theory and composition. Besides his formal music education (a bachelor's in composition, a teaching degree from the music academy in Jerusalem, and a master's in composition from Codarts, Rotterdam), Eyal has acquired experience in a wide range of various musical styles, including rock, blues, jazz, classical music, electronic music and contemporary music, on which he bases his rich approach, which can be adjusted to every student separately. Solos, chords, improvisations, heavy distortion or acoustic guitar, playing in a party or jumping on stages, reading notes or playing by ear. Maybe you know exactly what you want, and maybe you are not sure. In Eyal's view, the job of the teacher is helping you finding that out, and guiding you through your personal process. Johann Sebastian Bach or John Lennon? Sergei Rachmaninoff or Freddie Mercury? Regina Spektor? Nina Simone? Maybe Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart? Complex harmonies or simple melodies? Classical pieces or modern tunes? The only right answer is what you find interesting.
