Classical, Acoustic Guitar and Medieval and Renaissance Lute lessons

I'm a music teacher with a degree in music education from the Universidade Metropolitana de Santos (São Paulo/Brazil), a degree in Classical Guitar from the Conservatório de Tatuí (SP/Brazil) and a specialization in historical instruments from the Escola de Música do Estado de São Paulo (Brazil)
I was music teacher during 3 years at Barueri City Council (São Paulo/Brazil) before I started a master's degree in Renaissance Lute at ESMAE (Porto).
I have some Classical and acoustic guitar students and I also teach music in Porto's Council preschools.

The lessons will be planned according to the student's interests, and I will provide study material with theoretical and practical exercises. The student will have the opportunity to meet know other instruments and different approaches to musical practice and technique, improving the ability to interpret and create music.

My teachers were Antonio Freire (Electric guitar), Márcia Braga and Edson Lopes (Classical guitar) and Guilherme de Camargo (Lute).
I also had masterclasses with Marcus Toscano, Geraldo Ribeiro, Daniel Morais, Guilherme Barroso, Elizabeth Kenny, Gabriel Schebor, Paul O'Dette, Julian Behr, Bor Zuljan, Joachim Held and Hopkinson Smith.

About Me

I started to play music when I was 12 years old, my first teacher was my father that thought to me how to play the eletric guitar. At the 13 I started a music school in my hometown, studying mainly Blues and Rock with Antonio Freire, and two years after I had my first rock band, but 2 years after I was invited to play in a metal band as a lead guitarist. After many concerts I realised that I wanted to study music, so I started to learn the classical guitar and when I was 19 I started the degree on Classical Guitar and two years later I met the Lute, and this instrument brought me to Portugal to study a music book from 1554 that is on the Coimbra's University, the Orphénica Lyra.

In these years I did courses with teachers in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Porto and Coimbra (Portugal), also in Venice, Basel, Bremen, Barcelona and Lugo.

Since these years, I had classes with very good teacher, and I always liked to share my knowledge and learn with my students, constructing the knowledge in every class.

So far, I have had my first Renaissance lute class with Nei Bittar. He seems like an EXCELLENT teacher to me. A very kind and polite teacher with a well-prepared class who has given me a lot of knowledge, a lot of extra material to work on, has answered all my questions and is giving me very good professional advice. I am very happy and grateful.

Eurico
Music Classes - Guitar (classical, acoustic), Theory, Other instruments
I've recently finished my Music Education degree (perfect timing, right?) so I'm looking to fill my schedule with more students. My main instrument is the guitar, classical variant, but I have a vast experience in acoustic guitar, mainly rock/grunge styles (although I am familiar with many genres). I can also introduce you to bass guitar, drums, and piano/keyboards. And of course, everyone's favourite, Music Theory! Reading sheet music, ear training, chord progressions, composition, you name it. I am portuguese, but due to years of video gaming and book reading I'm perfectly fluent in english, so I can teach in both english and portuguese.

Music Theory (ABRSM Syllabus), Score Study/Conducting
Music theory is very important for anyone looking to learn an instrument! It helps broaden an understanding of the instrument and will also help you progress faster! If you are looking to do ABRSM instrumental exams, you will need to pass grade 5 music theory in order to progress to grade 6 in your instrumental exams, therefore I will be able to guide you to passing your grade 5 theory paper and beyond. I am also a professional freelance musician and conductor, for anyone interested in conducting, we can discuss how to approach a score in relation to this.

Private guitar lessons for every level: from basic chords to out of the box improvisation
Hey! 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 :)
