    About Me

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    Andreas grew up at the largest canal junction in Europe, between former coal heaps, power station towers and industrial ruins. At an early age he felt strongly drawn to music, began to learn the guitar and quickly realized that something was missing. Where is this groove, this deep, organic hum that he feels inside?

    He realizes that the bass offers him precisely these missing elements. The end of the search for the right instrument is at the same time the beginning of a new, much deeper journey:
    the perfect tone, your own musical language and personal development - for Andreas these things have been inextricably linked ever since.

    He begins studying at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, where he is taught by John Goldsby, Dieter Manderscheid and Robert Landfermann, who describes himself as a traditionalist in musical terms Modern. Because, modernity without tradition? Jazz without a story? It would be like the Ruhr area without collieries, New York without jazz and Andreas without a double bass. It just doesn't work.

    During his studies there are always new opportunities to test the limits of his instrument. He becomes an integral part of the federal jazz orchestra, writes for his own trio, goes on tour with pop bands and plays on every stage that can withstand the weight of him and his double bass. The encounters with musicians from different genres are a new challenge, let him work on his game and open up new perspectives for him. It is only logical that it is precisely these new perspectives that open up his latest field of research for him. What would music be without Mozart, Brahms or Beethoven? And what would the restless one be without taking on the task of researching the precision and sound aesthetics of the classical period?

    But what remains forever is jazz - whether as a technical research field, explosive experimental area or philosophical treatise. The best thing about this, he says, is that everyone can be who they are and what they want to be. It all depends on moving forward and finding your own, very personal language.

    Indian classical (carnatic and light) music and film music
    Music is the basic essence of all emotions and expressions. By learning it, we can admire and understand its beauty and enormity. My objective is to share the knowledge in Carnatic music that I have gained over all these years with the same passion that I learned it with. My teaching techniques involve discussing theories, understanding ragam, talam, and its built, and appreciation of Carnatic, light and film music creations. I would teach and encourage my students to listen to the previously created music and discuss its intricacies. You can learn from the basics to the advanced level along with vocal exercises and breathing exercises required for the music practice. You can get trained to perform in open-stage concerts and competitions as well.

    Online Classes of Piano, Keyboards and Musical Language
    The Tecla y Música Workshop is a space designed to learn and develop your musical and expressive sense through the piano and / or keyboards. The main objective is to learn to make music and enjoy the learning process and its results. The material with which we work (songs, instrumental pieces and exercises) is mainly oriented to your musical taste, and the choice is based on gradually expanding your technical and expressive possibilities, while exploring different musical styles. In this way, different tools are being incorporated to achieve, in a short term, mastery and fluency over the musical language and the instrument. Given that each student has different interests and concerns, whether playing as a hobby or developing a professional career, composing, improvising, etc., the orientation of the classes is built according to the possibilities and particular needs of each case. The work proposal implies a weekly class frequency to achieve optimal work dynamics and that the results are visible in a short term. There is also the possibility of taking isolated classes in order to solve a specific objective such as developing and perfecting some particular aspect of music practice and / or theory as well as preparing instrument exams or theoretical subjects for institutions of musical studies.
