Experience / Qualifications
I move my first steps as a trumpeter, getting a classical trumpet degree in 2015 in the G. Verdi Conservatory of Milan, but at the same time I began to study composition and continued as a composer, getting my Bachelor Degree in 2021, always in Milan. A brief period of studying lyric singing (3 years) gave me a clear perception of the problematic issue of writing for voice today, while the interest in the Jazz music as trumpeter gave me a knowledge of extended harmony.2023 Festival 5 Giornate di Milano (forthcoming) with album release; 2022 Winner of II prize ICIT 2022; INT-ACT Festival - TMAO; 2022 Festival del Melologo di Como; 2023 Divertimento Ensemble Composition workshop for percussion (with forthcoming work commission and premiere); 2022-23 course Analisi e composizione – Fondazione Piseri, held by G.C.Taccani (with forthcoming work commission and premiere); Winner of II prize-chamber music of New Music Generation competition 2022; Winner of DYCE call for composers 2022 and commission for a new Solo instrument piece; INT-ACT Festival and TMAO 2022 (with work commission and premiere); Selected for reMusik.org 2022 (with work commission and premiere); Selected for Mixtur Festival 2022 (with work commission and premiere); Participation to Dante 2022-Sconfinarte with score publishing and album release; Selected for Yarn Wire 2022 (not attended due to overlapping of commitments); Novalis concept festival 2022 (with work commission and premiere); 2021 Album release, commission from saxophonist Daniel Kientzy (with work commission and premiere); Winner of the 2021 IEMA Hans Zender Academy Frankfurt Call for scores IEMA – (with work commission and premiere); Selected for 2022 Divertimento Ensemble Composition workshop for prepared piano (with work commission and premiere); Selected by Salvatore Sciarrino for his Masterclass with mdi Ensemble(2021); Selected for the Solo cello composition workshop held by Francesco Dillon; "Rocca dei Bentivoglio"context; III prize (second non assigned) in the chamber music division at the "Concorso di Composizione Egidio Carella" - Fondazione Val Tidone (2021); Selected for the Barcelona Modern Annual Composition Masterclass held by Francesco Filidei and Oscar Bianchi (with work commission and premiere ,2021); I Prize "Giuseppe Cantone" ad the X International Music Competition AMIGDALA 2021
Actually, I'm attending the composition Master at G. Verdi Conservatory in the class of Gabriele Manca, but at the same time I’m taking part to a lot of professional experience, as IEMA 2021, DYCE 2022, Divertimento Ensemble workshop on prepared piano 2022, Rondò 2022, reMusik.org 2022, Novalis Concept 2022 , Mixtur Festival 2022, INT-ACT Festival and TMAO 2022, ICIT II prize, Festival del Melologo di Como, Festival 5 Giornate di Milano (forthcoming), Rondò 2023 (forthcoming), Salvatore Sciarrino Composition Masterclass with mdi ensemble (12/2021), Barcelona Modern Ensemble 2021, Workshop with Francesco Dillon (2021), with Michele Marco Rossi(2022), album release commissioned by with Daniel Kientzy (2022), Egidio Carella composition Prize (2021), Giuseppe Cantone I prize (2021) and a lot of masterclasses held by Francesco Filidei, Oscar Bianchi, Dmitri Kourliandski, Francesca Verunelli, Unsuk Chin, Marco Stroppa, Klaus Lang, Alberto Posadas, J.M. Lopez Lopez, George Benjamin, Vladimir Tarnopolski, David Nunez and many others.
My latest works are all united by research into three concepts of composing sound, structuring perception and managing actions:
1) The concept of polyphony of action, i.e., the simultaneous presence of several (three, four, five and even more) instrumental actions in a single instrument, which gives rise to a sound texture in which the sound of a single instrument reveals within it a multiplicity of related sound states. Understood in this sense, the sound emitted by a single instrument becomes not only unstable and unpredictable but becomes a collection of partial sounds that combine to form a multi-layered multi-sound. A multi-sound produced by several dynamic states within it, the result of several simultaneous gestural, manual, digital and emission activities. These activities can often conflict with each other, enhancing, annihilating, or giving rise to interference phenomena.
2) The relationship between continuity and discontinuity, under every parameter, and thus the questioning of what is meant by timbral continuity (or discontinuity), but also what is meant by gestural or harmonic continuity, or what is meant by perceptual continuity. Does discontinuity saturate time (making it heavier) better than continuity? Perhaps, but why? Are there techniques and instrumental actions that have a profound continuity inherent in them, and others that unfold better in discontinuity? Is it possible to make the listener's perception split and perceive continuity in discontinuity or vice versa? These are just a few of the innumerable questions that arise when questioning this relationship.
3) A strong irrational and improvisational component in which the syntax is inhabited by gestures with often physical and obsessive connotations. The formal structures I use are always very clear, even if within them they host hyper-layered sound and gestural activities, in which paradoxically the intention of clarity for the listener is what guides the entire compositional process, despite the complexity Clarity and complexity, involvement of the body, obsessive connotations, continuity in the macro-form but profound discontinuity in the local and micro-form, are just some of the characteristics of my music, in constant confirmation and escape from itself.
My music has been performed in Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Usa, Russia, Croatia and Thailand by IEMA Ensemble, Divertimento Ensemble, Barcelona Modern Ensemble, Tacet(i) Ensemble, Synchronos Ensemble, Vacuum Quartet, Glass Clouds Ensemble, Daniel Kientzy, Francesco Dillon, Maria Grazia Bellocchio and many others. Next projects include a new flute solo piece commissioned by DYCE 2022, a new solo bassoon piece within a research project of Conservatorio G. Verdi of Milano, a new solo percussion piece commissioned by Rondò 2023 and a new piece for Glass Clouds Ensemble.

Private guitar lessons for every level: from basic chords to out of the box improvisationHey!
My name is Richard and I give private lessons to all levels.
For guitar, it is important that you can improve yourself in a pleasant environment in a fun way where your interests are central. Do you want to delve deeper into a certain style? Do you want to create your own sound on your guitar using amps, and pedals, ...? I can help you with all that!
Knowledge of solfège or music theory is not required, we can always discuss this in class if you wish, but that is certainly not mandatory ;)
I have been playing the guitar since I was 9 years old and for several years now I have been playing in professional bands with which I have been able to play on sugar rock, for example.
The lessons would take place at my home in Mol or via webcam. If necessary, we can always agree on something else.
Be sure to let me know if you have any questions and I will answer as soon as possible.
See you soon!
Richard
PS: my specified hours are a guideline, if this does not suit you, you can certainly send us a message and we will try to arrange something :)

Singing classes in Vienna for all age students and musical styles (Online/Offline)Dear students:
My name is Denise and I'm a professional singer with a singing master's degree from Catalonia's Music College (ESMUC) specialized in Historical Singing, Musicology and Music Education.
My experience runs mostly in early and classical music with an active performing life, nevertheless I also have the experience and knowledge of popular musical styles such as Latin-American folk, jazz and musicals.
As a docent or vocal coach I've collaborate with different academic institutions and private artistic projects, focusing mostly on international students or social integration programs.
I have years of experience teaching children, teenagers and adults in both Latin-America and Europe, therefore understanding different appreciation levels and needs.
My main goal is to help the student discover her or his voice while enjoying making music.
**Class suggestions and indications**
No experience is needed just bring your enthusiasm and favorite music.
Classes can be given either in English, Spanish, French or Deutsch.
There are no limit for styles, bring your favorite music and I will provide a safe environment for your personal and musical growth.
For Children I strongly recommend the 45 min class since their attention span and body development is different from an adult.
Feel free to contact me in case of further questions. I would love to work together to achieve your musical goals.

Denise

Bach Chorale + Harmony studies - Music GCSE, A-level.Bach Chorales, the bane of any music student!
I specialise in tutoring music for students taking GCSE and/or A-level, having studied and taken my GCSE and A-Levels through the AQA Exam specification (and taking Harmony Studies at University). My aim is to help students calm and help them to see past the convolution of Bach Chorales and eventually see the value they will have for their musicianship in their future.
In this class, you will be able to understand the basics of western harmony and how it evolved into classical pieces through from Mozart & Chopin to Hans Zimmer and Charlie Puth!
This class is also designed to help students who may be struggling or want to better understand 4 part harmony and how to write better chorales to secure their Music A-Level requirements!
You will learn a variety of composition techniques to reduce the amount of stress it takes to try and solve the rubix cube that is a Bach Chorale, and also learn how to apply what is learned into further composition, should that be the goal! Don't worry if you are just starting out, I can help you take out the daunting part, and show you how useful these skills will be for you as a musician!

Piano Lessons - all ages and levels - Classical music, pop/rock, etc. - with Piano Master's graduated teacherHello!
I am a 29 years old classical pianist with a Master's degree at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag.
I have taught Piano (and also Music Education) since 2016, to both children and adults.
Teaching allows me to bring my passion and enthusiasm for music to the students, and I also find it incredibly rewarding to guide and follow their musical and technical development!
I am easily adaptable to the student's musical tastes and expectations/goals in music learning, and I am also very mindful of how I communicate, according to the students' ages and personalities.
I can teach classical music, pop, rock, or any other style.
My approach consists of giving you the necessary theoretical knowledge for what you wish to play; involving you actively in the choice of the pieces/songs you will play; setting up a long-term plan for your repertoire, so that your development is made step by step in a challenging - but achievable - way (and this way, you will feel more motivated!); giving you enjoyable and creative practicing strategies; creating rich imagery revolving around the piece - by making up a story, relating the music to emotions, etc.; and also positive feedback!
Thus, my lessons will allow you to:
- Learn how to read scores.
-Develop your musical understanding (from notes, rhythm, and harmony, to musical taste, and emotional comprehension of the music, or dive into aesthetic principles concerning the period and style of the piece,...).
-Improve, step by step, until you are able to play that piece/song that you love.
-Prepare yourself for exams.
-Etc.
Furthermore, I organize Students' Concerts, giving you the chance to play in a fantastic grand piano, and sharing with others all the work you've done!
The best thing is that it's possible for you to learn all this and have fun at the same time!
Any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.

Solfege & Oriental Solfege: Quarter Note - Rast, Bayet, Siga, Kord, Hijaz, Ajam, Nahawand - Major & Minor ScalesWith over 8 years of experience as a Solfege, Oriental Solfege, Oud, and Oriental singing teacher, I am a Lebanese musician currently residing in Mönchengladbach, Germany. I honed my skills for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. Prior to my relocation, I taught at Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and also held private music lessons. As a concertmaster, I performed with the oriental orchestra "Loubnan Assalam" for over 5 years.
My move to Germany was motivated by my pursuit of graduate studies at the University of Kamp-Lintfort.
Fluent in English, Couramment en français, ولغتي الأم هي اللغة العربية. Aber leider spreche Ich ein bisschen Deutsch.
Solfege, the foundation of music theory, is an essential tool for any musician who wishes to understand and create music. It provides a way to identify and communicate notes, intervals, and rhythms, and it is the key to developing musical literacy.
In this class, you will delve into the world of scales, exploring the unique characteristics of Western and Oriental scales. We will study the following scales:
Rast, Bayet, Siga, Kord, Hijaz, Ajam, Nahawand- Major & Minor Scales. In addition to these Western and Oriental scales, we will also introduce you to the quarter note, which is not traditionally found in Western music. It is a quarter note with a unique and distinct sound.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced musician, this class will provide you with the knowledge you need to use scales effectively for improvisation, singing, and playing any instrument.
With this knowledge, you will be able to:
* Read and write music (dictation) in solfège notation for both Western and Oriental scales.
* Identify and communicate notes accurately in the context of various musical traditions.
* Develop a deeper understanding of music theory and rhythmic concepts.
* Infuse your musical performances with a broader range of expressive possibilities.
We will use the book "المقامات الشرقية by Georges Farah" as the main reference for our study of Oriental solfège. This book is considered the best book in the Middle East to teach Oriental Solfège.
Discover the power of solfège to enhance your musical skills and open up a world of new possibilities!
