Certified vocal coach · 3 years as a teacher · Benidorm Fest finalist Do you want to sing with more confidence, improve your pitch, and enjoy your voice without strain? I'm Alejandro (XEINN), a certified singer and vocal teacher. I've been training as a singer for over 10 years and teaching for the last three, with experience with students of all levels and styles. What we will do in class: Warm-up and technique (20–25'): breathing, support, placement, mixing, resonance and tuning. Application to songs (35'): we work on your favorite themes so that progress is noticeable with the songs you like the most. Who are these classes for: - Beginners who want to build a solid foundation without vices. - Intermediate singers looking for more control, power and expressiveness. - Advanced/professionals who need to polish their style, live set, studio, or prepare for auditions. How we work: Practical and personalized approach: your voice, your goals, your style (Pop, R&B/Soul, rock, pop rock, Synthpop...). Clear and progressive method so you can see measurable improvements every week. Online and in-person options (subject to availability). What you'll get: - More fine-tuning and control without forcing. - Freer highs, more stable mix and better projection. - Stage confidence and criteria for self-training your voice between classes. About me (in brief) My first versions on social media began to grow until one of them went viral on YouTube (+15M), which prompted me to compose my own songs. EP “Diversity” (2018) and album “Pride of the Weak” (2021). Finalist at the Benidorm Fest 2022 with “ECO,” a well-received 80s synthpop song.

Music theory + piano lessons for beginners and advanced students - all age levelsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Have you always wanted not just to play notes, but to truly understand music? Music is not mechanical training. It is thinking, feeling, structuring, imagining, and being free at the same time. I am a musicologist, composer, pianist, organist, and harpsichordist with two academic degrees (Composition & Musicology), more than 10 years of teaching experience, and an active international concert career across Europe. My students study at prestigious music academies, perform on European stages, and develop artistic identity and confidence. I combine academic precision with creative freedom and a supportive atmosphere. Each student receives an individual learning plan. I adapt my method depending on age, level, and goals — whether it is: - first musical steps at 4–6 years old - hobby lessons for adults - serious professional preparation - exam or competition preparation Thanks to my background in musicology, composition, and even neuroaesthetics research, I help students: - understand how music works - develop musical thinking - improve memory and artistic expression - build a technical foundation without tension - gain confidence in performance Send me a message — and we will create your personal musical path. Music is not only about playing. It is about discovering yourself through sound.

Piano Coach, Learning to read music, Jazz music Classical musicTranslate this text using Google Translate.

I would like to share my passion for music with anyone who is interested but also willing to invest the necessary time to learn to play this beautiful instrument. It mainly requires perseverance instead of talent. Of course it all goes a bit faster if one has some talent, but that doesn't mean anything at all. (One is not superior to the other in that respect either! We are all equal!) Experience also shows that adults can become quite good later in life if you REALLY want it and make time for it to practice on a regular basis. -Mindset is key in everything one does- The internet is of course full of very valuable lessons, but personal guidance is also very important! I myself have also learned a lot via the internet, but I have also regularly taken lessons at the music academy in Geel and at the Jazz Studio in Antwerp. Due to the overload of information, it can sometimes be that people can no longer see the forest for the trees... I can certainly be of service to you in the process of your musical development, both on a musical level but also on a psychological/spiritual level. I myself am still practicing music on a daily basis, but now I also want to pass on the knowledge I currently have to people who are also very passionate about music. See you soon ! Greetings Richard

Electric Guitar Lessons / Acoustic Guitar Lessons / Music Theory LessonsTranslate this text using Google Translate.

I'm a 32-year old guitarist and composer based in Den Haag, teaching electric and acoustic guitar, in combination with music theory (if that is of interest to the student). I teach in English or in Greek. I am half Greek and half Scottish and I have been living in the Netherlands for the last 6 years. I offer lessons in all styles, to all age groups, and for any experience level (ranging from students who have never touched a guitar before, up to advanced players who are looking for new challenges). Face to face lessons are preferable, but I also teach online. I am a patient and open minded teacher, and my desire is to help you learn what you want to learn, and make sure you have fun with playing the guitar and nurture your curiosity and excitement about the world of music creation ! My Credentials: I hold a Bachelors of Music degree from Birmingham Conservatoire (UK), and a Masters of Music from The Hague Royal Conservatory. My experience as a guitarist ranges from classical guitar studies, to playing electric guitar in rock bands, as well as experience as an improviser, performer of notated contemporary classical compositions, creator and performer of ambient and electronic music. I also am very experienced in ambient and electronic-influenced guitar music, which has given me an in depth knowledge also of the guitar in combination with technology such as guitar effects, computer software and multichannel setups which expand the audio palette of the guitar. I have written songs, I have written orchestra pieces, I have worked as a DIY home producer, I have released albums, and I've performed in concert halls, rock venues, squats and festivals. I even some experience in beat-making. My music has been performed in and has taken me to several countries, including Portugal, The Czech Republic, The U.S.A., Canada, Korea, Greece, The U.K., The Netherlands. My Teaching style: My emphasis is to teach you based on your interests and your needs. The lessons are based around each individual student. You bring me the music you like and the things you want to learn, and I build my lessons around that. I've taught students everything from post-rock, to metal, to K-Pop to Nepalese songs... This way the student gets to explore music on their terms, and not based on a pre-decided set of songs or exercises. Alongside this I bring exercises and other songs that help build around the skills we learn through your songs, and help you develop the techniques needed for you to learn to play the music you love. Whatever music excites you I encourage you to bring it to our lesson, as this also gives me a chance to discover some new music ! What's more, depending on your interest, we can also explore music theory, ideas on composition and songwriting, even the basics of how to record your own songs at home. For experienced players: If you are an experienced player looking for new challenges and new perspectives, my wide ranging knowledge of music in a large spectrum of music will help you push your playing and knowledge of music into new worlds ! Topics of our more advanced lessons could include: in depth exploration of the possibilities of guitar pedals, using Ableton live with the electric guitar, reading scores, writing scores, exploring extended guitar techniques, using multi-amp setups, recording your own songs, playing contemporary classical works that include the electric guitar, exploring finger picking, using alternative guitar tunings, going deeper into music theory, exploring genres you haven't heard of (ranging from classical, to experimental, to free jazz, to electronic music)

Music Theories - How we make music and how we understand it to make it betterTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Music Theories - How we make music and how we understand it to make it betterTranslate this text using Google Translate.

What is music theory? Is it just one theory? What do we do with it? How come so many of the greatest musicians didn't even know the name of the notes? Let's dispel the myth. They may, in fact, have lacked the names, but "knowing" in music means something else than a dusty stockpile of information and labels. Their ears, their voice, and their hands "know" very well. We can conceive music theory as a way to bring order into the endless realm of sound possibilities. Naming and conceptualizing these possibilities is useful in many ways. I like to think of it in two directions: on the one hand, theory provides us with an overarching understanding of what we have done with music, allowing us to generalize and repeat certain principles in other contexts (reflective element); on the other hand, it can also open us up to new sound combinations as we theorize and create concepts we haven't yet heard in music (generative element). One point remains crucial: music theories come from musical practice and return to musical practice. Theories are most useful when they serve music-making, but remain empty speculation without it. In these lessons, I will help you navigate music theories and what to do with them. I will show you a plurality of approaches to systematizing sound relationships that will best serve the music you love to play or want to compose. The lessons will be custom made for each student. Whether you are a beginner who simply wants a little help getting the basics right, or a cultivated musician fond of music theory who wants to explore advanced and complex concepts out of the box, I will provide you with ideas, materials, and exercises. I will adapt to your learning rhythm while keeping you challenged. You will receive regular feedback, advice, and guidance.

Recorder lessons and musical training for adults and childrenTranslate this text using Google Translate.

As an experienced music teacher, I offer recorder and music theory lessons for children and adults of all ages and skill levels! Originally from Brazil, I have been teaching music for several years. A graduate of the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, I have extensive experience as a music teacher, having given private lessons and taught in music academies in Belgium and elsewhere. I develop a unique method for each student so that they can learn in a solid and enjoyable way. The recorder is an easy instrument to learn, making it a great opportunity for children to begin their musical journey. It provides an initial introduction to musical notation and helps develop their ear. I offer students a fun and dynamic learning experience, where music is made from the very first lesson. For adults... If you're a beginner, don't worry! I will teach you how to produce the first sounds on your new instrument, how to blow correctly, how to adopt a good posture, etc. I will help you build, step by step, a solid basic technique that will allow you to play any piece on the flute. If you are an advanced student or already possess a solid foundation in your instrument, I propose working on refining your technique, taking into account each repertoire. We will explore creativity and sound to produce an increasingly beautiful and eloquent musical expression. Lessons can take place at the student's home or the teacher's home in Forest. Travel expenses are negotiable depending on the distance. Feel free to contact me to discover this magnificent instrument!

“ Absolutely stellar experience learning from Anton!! Having never taken a music class in my life and starting a new hobby at the age of 30, Anton was the perfect instructor to work with.
