Learn how to play traditional Chinese bamboo flute (Xiao or Dizi)

The bamboo flute is a popular woodwind instrument that is wildly used in traditional Chinese music and Chinese plays. The clean and high-pitched sound from bamboo flute makes it one of the most representative instruments in Chinese culture. The flute was entitled “Bamboo flute” because most of them are made of bamboo. Despite of the fact that some of the flutes are made of other materials such as stones, woods...etc, the flutes are still known as bamboo flute due to the excellent and characterized sounding effects from bamboo.
The typical bamboo flutes are shown in Figure 1. There are two basic types of bamboo flutes according to their pitch scale and general size. The first type is called “Bang-Di”. It is basically shorter in length and capable of producing higher pitches. The tone from this type of bamboo flute is brighter and sharper. The other type is called “Qu-Di”. It is longer in length and lower in pitch produced. Opposite to the first type, the tone of Qu-Di is more smooth. The bamboo flute is a transposing instrument, and the tonality of every flute is marked on the side of their bodies. Generally, the bamboo flutes can cover pitch scale up to two octaves plus one whole tone.

About Me

Bonjour,

Depuis l’âge de 15 ans, je donne des cours collectives et privés de flûte bambou.

En 2018, j’ai été sound designer en collaboration avec un studio de jeux de vidéo à Taïwan, les missions ont été de composer les bandes son, créer des effets sonores, de jouer des instruments, d’enregistrer et le mixage.

Ayant plusieurs expériences de concert, d’enregistrements pour la chanson populaire, je pense pouvoir proposer des cours bien conçus en fonction de niveau des élèves et j'aurai tellement plaisir de pouvoir vous échanger les cultures différentes.

See you soon !

Guitar workshops: personalized lessons / private training
Folk or classical acoustic guitar. The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation. For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...). For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...). Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points: -Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear - Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords - Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand - Learning of different pieces of your choice - Left hand control exercises, speed and precision - Learning arpeggios - Work around muscle memory - Learning improvisation, musical play with others - Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used -Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results -Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument - Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone -Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge - Learn tablatures / tabs & in English. Note : - Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase. - As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy. - Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice. THE TEACHER : Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords. PLACES : - 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.

Music Production Masterclass: How To Be A Bedroom Producer
Bedroom producers form the bedrock that most of the electronic genres comprising today's musical landscape are built off of. With a desktop PC, laptop, tablet or phone and an internet connection, you have near-instant access to all the tools necessary to create sounds literally never heard before in human history. Never has it been easier for an aspiring artist to begin, master and hone their craft, be it a hobbyist looking for a cathartic outlet or a chart-topping, platinum-record-stacking industry giant. The issue is; making music's tough. And Digital Audio Workstations are scary. And writer's block is terrible. And music theory makes my teeth itch. With both a masters and bachelors degree in music technology, years of professional musical experience spanning a wide array of genres and applications and eyebrows that'll knock your socks off, I can walk you through everything you need to become an electronic music producer. I can show you advanced tips and tricks to make the most out of your DAW of choice, I can help you with grasping the musical theory necessary to take the stress out of composition, I can teach you how to eradicate the dread of writer's block, discover your own musical voice, and help you become one of the great composers of our modern era. The Beethoven's, the Mozart's, the Tchaikovsky's. Just a little more sleep-deprived, I imagine. Or I can just help you throw a beat together, whatever suits you. (As a seasoned mental health battler; I am available midday to midnight GMT for you night owls, and will happily cater to those uncomfortable with face-to-face online sessions. Neither a webcam nor a microphone is necessary, we can pretend it's a Twitch chat if you need. Don't stress yourself out of wanting to learn. Just be prepared for me to monologue about resampling until you interrupt me with an emote.)
