Joseph - Liège, BelgiumC$109

C$109Cello with a very friendly professional; all ages, all stages!

Trusted teacher: You're in good hands! As a professional cellist for 14 years now, including as a member of major European and Australian opera and philharmonic orchestras, I welcome all students, from those picking up the instrument for the first time to those preparing for professional auditions. My primary aim in teaching is to create an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect in which students can draw motivation to set and accomplish their goals, with my full commitment towards helping them achieve those. Getting the foundations of good playing and good musicianship right is of course a very close and no less important second! During their journey, students can count on my patience, understanding and sympathy to help them through all challenges. I tailor my teaching style to fit all students based on their individual needs and wishes, or those of their parents if they're too young to decide for themselves. I'm determined to break the stereotype of teachers being failed performers and teach not only by demonstration, but by playing with students as an accompanist or duet partner, even with absolute beginners. If you're not sure exactly what you want out of lessons, or aren't sure where to begin, let's discuss and determine that together! Lessons take place at my place in Carré.

Trusted teacher: With over 8 years of experience as a Solfege, Oriental Solfege, Oud, and Oriental singing teacher, I am a Lebanese musician currently residing in Mönchengladbach, Germany. I honed my skills for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. Prior to my relocation, I taught at Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and also held private music lessons. As a concertmaster, I performed with the oriental orchestra "Loubnan Assalam" for over 5 years. My move to Germany was motivated by my pursuit of graduate studies at the University of Kamp-Lintfort. Fluent in English, Couramment en français, ولغتي الأم هي اللغة العربية. Aber leider spreche Ich ein bisschen Deutsch. Solfege, the foundation of music theory, is an essential tool for any musician who wishes to understand and create music. It provides a way to identify and communicate notes, intervals, and rhythms, and it is the key to developing musical literacy. In this class, you will delve into the world of scales, exploring the unique characteristics of Western and Oriental scales. We will study the following scales: Rast, Bayet, Siga, Kord, Hijaz, Ajam, Nahawand- Major & Minor Scales. In addition to these Western and Oriental scales, we will also introduce you to the quarter note, which is not traditionally found in Western music. It is a quarter note with a unique and distinct sound. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced musician, this class will provide you with the knowledge you need to use scales effectively for improvisation, singing, and playing any instrument. With this knowledge, you will be able to: * Read and write music (dictation) in solfège notation for both Western and Oriental scales. * Identify and communicate notes accurately in the context of various musical traditions. * Develop a deeper understanding of music theory and rhythmic concepts. * Infuse your musical performances with a broader range of expressive possibilities. We will use the book "المقامات الشرقية by Georges Farah" as the main reference for our study of Oriental solfège. This book is considered the best book in the Middle East to teach Oriental Solfège. Discover the power of solfège to enhance your musical skills and open up a world of new possibilities!

Mohamed - EgyptC$31

C$31Oud lessons in Cairo, Fifth Settlement and First Settlement

Trusted teacher: I am an oud teacher who teaches oud to beginners in terms of reading musical notes. Intensive training is required to raise the level in an academic manner, as well as teaching solfege until you reach the required level. Within a short period, the most important thing is that you have the oud. If it is not available, I can recommend a professional oud maker to you. If you're just starting to learn the oud and want to get to know the basics, it's not difficult and we'll help you enjoy playing and build your skills step by step. First of all, what is an oud? The oud is an ancient stringed instrument used in oriental music. It has a distinctive shape and a deep sound. It consists of a large wooden body and a short neck with strings. Ok, how do we start? 1. Oud grip: The first thing you need to learn is how to hold the oud correctly, so that you are comfortable and your hand can move easily over the strings. 2. Strings: The oud has five or six strings, and each string has a specific note. First, we'll learn how to tune the oud (adjust the strings so the notes sound correctly). 3. Basics of playing: Next, we will learn how to move the pick (the instrument you pluck the strings with) and how to play simple notes on the strings. 4. Musical note: We'll start by learning how to read musical notation in a simple way, so you can play short pieces. The topic will begin with easy notes, and then we'll progress step by step. 5. Practical application: Over time, we will start practicing famous oriental pieces such as “taqasim” or simple things from the Arab musical heritage. In this course, everything will be taught step by step so that you will understand the basics and be comfortable playing. For details, contact us via page messages.
