Nikos - Athens, GreeceC$60
C$60Electric/Acoustic Guitar/Composition/Music Theory/World Fusion/Improvisation/Alexander's Technique/Meditation
Qualified Teacher of Electric/Acoustic Guitar/Theory and Composition gives lessons specializing in the musical genre of worldfusion. Techniques taught on electric guitar: rhythm and lead, staccato (alternate picking, economy picking), legato (hammer on, pull off, hybrid picking, bend, strum, palm muting, whammy bar (hard rock, blues, far eastern-middle eastern vocal lines, tapping, sight reading, chords, arpeggios, sweep picking, Ebow, Bottleneck Slide, alternate tunings. Usually most students are interested in integrating and using these techniques to personify non-European music on the electric guitar, both on an equal temperament and non equal, as the electric guitar can "play" in both worlds equally. Finally, I use embodied self-awareness techniques (body scan, breathing awareness, etc.) which are found in Alexander's Technique and Mindfulness Meditation practices, thus helping to improve the student's technique and musicality on their instrument. Why would someone prefer you? My specialization is the electric guitar in the musical idiom of worldfusion, i.e. the osmosis of elements of western popular music with non-European idioms and traditions. The art of music is structured on its 5 worlds: melody, harmony, rhythm, form and timbre. On a cross-cultural level, one can equate each of these 5 parameters with a musical culture and thus unlimited possibilities of original musical creation can arise. For example, imagine a musical composition or improvisation with Indian melody, jazz harmony, Greek rhythm, in ballad form with rock timbre. My teaching can be focused for anyone interested in learning ways to achieve similar musical combinations. Also, due to my studies in the sciences of Cultural Anthropology and Ethnomusicology, all technical and theoretical musical knowledge is also documented on a historical and cultural level based on selected scientific literature that I provide to the student. All in all, together we can explore its worlds: A) popular music (rock, pop, metal, indie, blues, progressive, world music, ambient, cinematic) B) western art music (medieval, Baroque Renaissance, Classicism, Romanticism, 20th century) C) traditional and non-European music (Greece, Balkans, Ireland, India, China, Japan and Indonesia, Africa and the Middle East) D) methods of embodied self-awareness (Mindfulness Meditation, Alexander's Technique) EXPERIENCE/EDUCATION Teaching private lessons (2014-present) Participation in music ensembles, bands and theatre performances as electric guitarist and composer (2014-present) National and Kapodistrian University of Athens - Department of Music Studies/ direction Ethnomusicology and Cultural Anthropology (M.A.) (2023) Counterpoint and Harmony (honors) from the Athens Conservatory (2021) Poetry workshop "Takis Sinopoulos Foundation" (2021) Mindfulness Meditation (2019-present) Alexander's Technique (2023)

Finley - AustriaC$60
C$60Music Theory/Composition in Classical/Jazz for Beginners/Intermediates
Trusted teacher: Understanding music theory is essential when becoming a musician of any kind, as it deepens one's knowledge of how exactly music works. The more one knows about it, the better they can listen to, perform and write music. In the rich history of the subject, a clear narrative of evolution can be found that shows how music has arrived at the stage it is at today, all of which can be seen in the application of music theory and how it has changed over time. This is my biggest passion, and I would love to share my knowledge with any beginners wanting to develop/strengthen their musical competency or intermediates who want to focus on a specific aspect of classical or jazz and really understand how it works. As an introduction to myself: I have studied music theory and composition for a few years in various countries at various institutions (private lessons in Düsseldorf, briefly at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, and currently at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna), and have had experience in tutoring/teaching since I tutored math, history, and biology in school to friends of mine. I like to think my ability to teach comes from my parents, who are both teachers and whose passion for helping others learn definitely influenced me! I have experience with teaching children, where I helped many younger students with playing music when I was in high-school, meaning I know how to make learning a fun process for just about anyone. Music and teaching are two of my biggest passions, and I have been told that is quite noticeable simply upon meeting me, as my enthusiasm is very contagious. I guarantee that every student will receive their very own lesson plan catered exactly to what the student wishes or needs to learn, and what I believe the best way to learn it would be. Lessons could cover categories such as: - Learning music notation in all its different forms and how to read scores from solo instruments to extremely large ensembles (learning the skills of instrumentation and arranging as well) - Music history and the analysis of works from notable composers from any era of classical or jazz - Music theory essentials that are likely to come up on any music theory test such as four part writing, figured bass, any form of cadence, writing traditional melodies and countermelodies - Composition techniques used throughout history and how one can use the music of the past to influence the music of the future. The lesson plan will also be adjusted to make sure that learning is happening at a pace that works with the student. There can be regularly scheduled tests for the student in any of the different categories mentioned above in order to ensure that the student fully understands what is being taught. Music is one of the greatest things in the world, and I can safely say that being able to help others learn all the amazing components of music as I have is something I take incredibly seriously. I will make sure that whether after one lesson, ten, or twenty, you will come away from this knowing more than you did before.
