Learning Jazz is like acquiring a set of master keys to unlock playing in any music genre.

Contact Jason directly for private jazz piano tuition in Amsterdam. He has 20 years of university teaching experience in jazz piano studies and caters for beginner to advanced levels, whether you're looking to learn the basics or master the deeper concepts.

Courses for people who would like to enrich various aspects of their musical knowledge through an innovative, modern approach.

With more than 16 years of experience in the music field, I am offering the following courses:

• Improvisation: Obtain the necessary skills to be able to dynamically generate music out of scratch, in your own style.
• Music Theory: Understand the 'grammar' of music, and how it works.
• Piano & Pipe Organ: Get acquainted with the 'Royal Family' of the Instruments!

Using a balanced recipe between knowing, hearing, and doing, my teaching approach aims to broaden your musical horizons in a fun and imaginative way.

All lessons are tailor-made to fit your specific case and goals regardless of your age or level, ensuring that learning is an accessible and fun process.

Composition lessons are for anyone who wishes to compose music, for any instrument, emsemble and/or electronics music.

My teaching method combines various approaches and styles, supporting practice with theoretical knowledge, and most important developing creativity and helping the student in making their imagionary visions come real.

For each student a different palate of tools is offered, according to the student's musical wishes and ambitions.

I teach the basis of western-music composition - theory, harmony, counterpoint, score-reading, solfege, rhythm, analysis and more.
Further I suggest broad overview of world, jazz, pop, new/contemporary music, various styles in electronic music (popular and experimental), improvisatory compositions, graphic notation, text and game pieces, music for theater, film and dance and interdicsiplinary works which combine music with other art fields.

In the fascinating realm of music there are few instruments that offer the richness of possibilities that keyboard instruments offer. Discover the world of organ music at the beautiful Vermeulen organ of the Obrechtkerk in Amsterdam, or seek to develop your existing skills! Just starting and wanting to cultivate your first keyboard skills at the piano? Also possible and welcome!! There's a lot awaiting you: music from the 15th to the 21st century, improvisation, music theory, church music...

My name is Marine, I'm 28 years old and I've been playing the piano since I was 12. A graduate of the Chantilly Departmental Conservatory in France (training obtained alongside my baccalaureate), I also studied jazz for two years in a specialized school, then in jazz piano classes at the conservatory. My musical approach is therefore rich, lively and open, far from rigid classical patterns.

⸻

🎯 For whom?
• Children from 5-6 years old, teenagers and adult beginners
• No prior knowledge required
• Ideal for those who want to discover the piano while having fun, without any professional objectives

⸻

🌟 My teaching methods

The idea is not to learn the piano as a constraint, but to experience it as a pleasure, a way of expressing yourself and discovering your own musicality.

✅ Method without traditional music theory: we work by ear, drawing inspiration from videos (such as “synthesia”), well-known songs and film music.
✅ Progressive but natural learning: we start with popular music (cartoons, pop culture, film music – Disney, Harry Potter, etc.)
✅ Objective: to develop listening, musical sensitivity, interpretation, creativity, and the pleasure of playing
✅ Gentle introduction to improvisation and the first elements of jazz, if the student is curious.

⸻

🎶 Why me?

• Experience with children and adolescents (I have already helped several young people learn their favorite music)
• Lessons adapted to each student: I attach great importance to their musical tastes, their desires, their pace
• Caring, encouraging approach focused on the enjoyment of music
• I am French-speaking, but I can also adapt to an international audience if necessary.

⸻

📍 Where?

• At home (Amsterdam, De Pijp)

⸻

✨ If your child dreams of playing Let It Go, Harry Potter or The Lion King on the piano, or if you yourself finally want to dare to put your hands on a keyboard, I would be delighted to accompany you on this musical adventure.

Hello! My name is Jade. I’m an undergraduate student and have been playing the piano for 15 years; I graduated from the Geneva Conservatory.

In my lessons, I focus on practice and improving technique. Although I have prepared lessons and pieces, I give my students a great deal of freedom in choosing their sheet music, the intensity of their lessons, and the type of instruction they need. I see the piano as a passion and, above all, an art form which, as such, shouldn’t become a source of stress or frustration. We’ll make progress through small successes and can explore a variety of genres, from classical music to songs, pop, and even film scores.

My priorities are for students to learn the notes and develop the ability to read sheet music easily, as well as rhythm and interpretation.
We can complement this approach with training in musical ear and singing, as well as the basics of music analysis.

I’d be happy to welcome you to my studio in De Pijp or can come to your home.

I look forward to meeting you!

Frank has been a saxophone teacher for about 25 years, alongside his career as a saxophonist. His teaching style is creative yet solid. A good foundation is something to fall back on, especially when you also want to learn to improvise. The better your technique, the more confident you will feel in your playing. Stage fright and the fear of being heard often stem from an insufficient foundation and a lack of technique.
