Creative, committed and persistent are my main characteristics as a teacher, professional with 10 years of experience in musical production, sound engineering and guitar lessons. In 2014 I decided to move to London in order to improve in a more deeper level my sound engineer and mastering technics in LondonAmp – London Academy of Music Production where he completed the Sound Engineering Certificate course.

If you love music and want to know more and do more, this is the class. We will use the piano as our main instrument and explore many different styles of music and develop your own skills as a musician. We will have theory topic along side a main piece to work on that will help deepen your understanding of how music works and explores the three big areas of Jazz Pop and Classical. The balance between the two here is flexible if you are already comfortable on the piano.

Composition starts as I write set exercises for you that we can work together on and start to piece together the different elements that go into composing music. Should you want to focus on one of these three elements more I am able to shift the balance to make a personalized experience.

Ableton is an incredibly versatile tool for making music, whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your production skills. In this course, I share over 7 years of hands-on experience with Ableton to help you turn musical ideas into real, expressive tracks.

This class is designed for beginners and developing producers who want to gain a clear, practical understanding of Ableton — not just how it works, but how to use it creatively and with purpose.

We’ll cover:

Setting up and navigating Ableton Live

Understanding audio vs. MIDI and using instruments effectively

Recording, sampling, and arranging

Mixing essentials: EQ, effects, and dynamics

Developing your own workflow and creative process

Whether you're into electronic music, beats, or songwriting, the focus is on helping you build confidence, finish ideas, and express your musical voice through Ableton.

Lessons are available in Lisbon or online — and always shaped around your needs and style.

Hi I'm Josef! I have over 15 years experience performing diverse genres including European & Celtic Folk, Balkan-Klezmer, Tango, Latin-American, French Musette, Blues and Swing. All of my classes are personalised to my students. I prepare pieces that fit your level but align with your musical loves, to push you to the next level while having fun, rather than learning from only a fixed course or book.

As a musician I've worked, toured and studied in countries including Colombia, Chile, Bulgaria, and Greece, which has given me a wide musical repertoire, collection and musical perspective that I'm keen to share!

I've worked with children and also seniors who have begun their music education later in life from little to no experience. Having played in diverse bands I can put the accordion in context and build confidence playing with other musicians, teaching techniques and music theory that can be transferred to other instruments.

My students say I'm a friendly, supportive and experienced teacher with over 15 years experience playing Piano accordion. I've taught students from advanced levels to zero musical experience, enabling people to gain confidence and play diverse Global styles.

Understanding music theory and composition is essential for musicians (whether performers or composers) of any genre and level. With this course, I hope to share my 10 years of experience in composition and music theory, as well as a great enjoyment for the field. I aim to exemplify the discussed theory through listening and (if applicable) playing examples, combining the established theories by discussing compositional parameters, making the playing of pieces and composing more accessible and organic.
I aim for a personalized experience within the framework of demand.
