Bertalan offers classical, jazz and improvisation lessons for ages 10 and above, from beginner to advanced. Bertalan has a Masters of Music degree, and has a wealth of experience both teaching and performing on piano. He has been teaching piano lessons since 2012.
An emerging contemporary music artist's musical style combines free jazz, film music, and world music sonorities. He is a composer of several short films, including one chosen as the best animated short film of the Manchester Film Festival. Bertalan also works with university students and directors from the Budapest Metropolitan University, HKU University of the Arts Utrecht, DSK Supinfocom International Campus, and collaborates with visual artists such as the Light Up Collective and Beeldjutters focusing on audio visual projection art.
Performed improvised piano on many prominent concert stages from Budapest to the Netherlands, and plays in several jazz bands and improvised music ensembles. He composes for games, movies, theatre, and is interested in exploring any platform for creating music and developing exciting ideas.
Bertalan's goal is to provide piano lessons that offer the opportunity to enjoy music while playing it, and to have fun throughout the learning process.

Singing is a way of expression that helps you to connect to yourself and others. As a jazz-singer, performer and vocal coach I encourage anybody to join my classes. I work with adults and children also, helping them to improve their music skills by a playful method.

I offer advanced private studies in jazz composition, improvisation, arranging, and related musical practices for dedicated musicians, composers, and advanced students. My teaching draws equally from long-term professional experience as a performer, composer, and producer, as well as formal studies with Kálmán Oláh and Béla Faragó at the Liszt Academy in Budapest, and with Darcy James Argue and Chris Zuar at the Manhattan School of Music in New York.

Alongside over two decades of touring, recording, and ensemble work, I have also maintained a long-standing teaching practice focused on helping musicians develop a deeper understanding of musical language, form, rhythm, orchestration, and artistic individuality. While rooted in jazz, my approach is open to contemporary hybrid practices, including groove-based music production and acoustic-electronic environments when relevant to the student’s interests.

Lessons are primarily aimed at advanced students, semi-professional and professional musicians, composers, and international students based in Budapest who are looking for a more individual and experience-based approach to contemporary jazz and composition studies.

Jazz composition and form, orchestration, voicings, unifying elements

Dear Music Friends,

My name is Marcell, I’m 29 years old, and I graduated from the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music.

I’ve been teaching privately for 10 years now, I have taught at the Buda “Kis Zene” music school, and as a traveling musician I’ve also toured parts of Europe.

I teach piano, solfège, music theory, and improvisation. I’m also open to lighter genres such as pop or jazz, and we can explore film music as well.

For me, the word “dictatorship” does not exist in teaching. The lessons are tailored to the student’s needs and delivered within a professional framework.

I have students of all ages. Perhaps what I love most about my work is this diversity, and the shared joy when a student reaches and surpasses a milestone.

I also offer lessons at your home — by arrangement.

I look forward to hearing from you!
