    Vocal lessons - Learn how to sing and how to use your voice in everyday life

    You are using your voice everyday. Speaking all day at work, or with your friends at the party, sometimes getting your voice tired. This problem is common for the people, who speak with their vocal chords making their throat and neck muscles tight. The right way of using your voice and your vocal chords is going to make your life so much easier even if you don't sing. The singing requires many skills from using your resonators and vocal chords, to a correct breathing using diaphragm. In this course I'm going to teach all levels how to use your voice not only for singing, but also to make your everyday life better and easier.

    I have taught music to kids, but also I can work with teenagers and adults. Also, I can prepare you for entrance music examinations in Music schools.
    I have a Bachelor's degree in Music from Arte Music Academy in Cyprus. Currently, I am a Master's Student in Jazep's Vitol's Latvian Music Academy in the Vocal Music department specializing in Opera Singing, where I am also improving my qualification in Composition. I have performing experience singing as a soloist and choir singer with Symphonic Orchestras for many years. I really hope that my experience of performing on stage will help my students to achieve better results in their Vocal lessons. I also love teaching and my lessons will be Student-Centered, so my students will have the opportunity to choose their way of learning based on their interests and needs. I speak English, Greek, and Russian. You are very welcome to go ahead and book lessons with me and we can discuss further your music objectives and how I can help you to achieve your goals in Music.

In this course, I'm going to share with you my some of the composition techniques that I know. Also, at the class we are going to hear music of different composers and discuss it and then write our own music.

    Ziad
    Oriental Arabic Oud and Singing Teacher in Germany
    Experienced Oud & Oriental singing teacher for over 8 years, Lebanese, currently residing in Mönchengladbach. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I was a teacher at Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and also offered private lessons. Additionally, I served as a concertmaster in the oriental orchestra "Loubnan Assalam" for more than 5 years. My reason for relocating to Germany is to complete my studies at the University of Kamp Lintfort. I am fluent in English, Couramment en français, ولغتي الأم هي اللغة العربية. Unfortunately, I speak only a little German (Aber leider spreche ich ein bisschen Deutsch). My recommendation for learning the Oud is to begin by studying musical notes and notation before delving into songs. While some students prefer to jump straight into playing songs, understanding the fundamentals of music notation accelerates progress in the long run. Dedication and hard work can yield significant progress within a year, enabling you to play simple tunes. However, if you lack a passion for music or the instrument itself, I advise against pursuing it. As a friendly and passionate teacher, I derive joy from witnessing my students' progress and enjoy playing duets with them. While in-person meetings are preferable, I also offer online lessons for those unable to meet in person. Feel free to leave me a message, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
