Music brings people in a different, better world - it's worth to know it, experience it and become a part of it.

Listening to music gives us freedom, happiness, peace, and access to a limitless world. Being able to learn an instrument that empowers your imagination is a wonderful gift you can give yourself or your loved ones. Both the voice of a violin and a viola can bring out the best in you and radiate the outward radiance you've been seeking all along.

Listening music gives us freedom, happiness, peace and the choice to a limitless world. Being able to learn an instrument that gives you wings to your imagination is a great gift that you can do to yourself or to your loved ones.
Both violin and viola's voices can take out the best of you and bring that sparkle of light that you were looking for all this time.

Would you like to express yourself, in a way other than with words? Do you like to challenge yourself, to set specific goals? Would you like to learn with fun and demands? Cello is then for you!
One says Cello is the instrument that lies the closest to human voice. I would propose to you to discover it! From the Classical Music through the Film Music to the Pop, the cello reaches out to a very large pallet of sounds, that could be compared to the various shades of colours of a painting!

Together we will explore the flute instrument in more detail and set out to achieve your wish or goal - be it learning a song by Billie Eilish, playing her favorite piece at grandma's birthday party, working on your technique and your fingers to train them so that they can play very fast passages, to discover new music with me in class and have fun, or, or, or!

Beginners as well as advanced or returnees of all ages are welcome.

I myself come from Aargau, but live and study in Bern at the University of the Arts. I am currently pursuing a master's degree in education. In addition to great chamber music and improvisation projects, I play and organize in the Bern student orchestra. I also have many years of experience with wind orchestras and enjoy leading register rehearsals.
In addition to music, I really enjoy being in nature, for example in the mountains or the refreshing Aare. I also enjoy reading and am interested in psychological topics.

I look forward to making music with you!

This course is aimed at beginner and intermediate students of classical violin, jazz and contemporary music.

For beginner students:
We cover technical elements such as violin and bow positioning and holding, bow movement, left-hand placement, scales, and positions. We also work on developing ear training and rhythm. We may also introduce basic music theory concepts, such as reading notes.
Finally, we work on learning pieces, according to the student's desires and musical styles.

For intermediate students, here are different approaches depending on their musical styles and desires.

For jazz and improvised music: scales or arpeggios that can be played on a given chord, modes and their use, rhythm, improvisation exercises, phrasing (swing, Latin, funk, etc.), learning jazz standards, how to amplify on stage, etc.

For classical music: scales and arpeggios, technical exercises for the left and right hand, how to put together a piece, musicality and interpretation.
