About Me
Primavera has been awarded prizes in numerous international competitions. Among its successes are the first prize and the audience prize at the 7th Mayenne International Piano Competition, the second prize at the 16th Scriabin International Competition in Grosseto, and the 3rd prize at the 2014 edition of the Moroccan Philharmonic Orchestra's International Piano Competition.

Primavera has given recitals in venues such as the Salle Cortot, the Palais d'Iéna, and the Espace Bernanos in Paris; the Théâtre Municipal de Mayenne, Sala Verdi, and Auditorium Gaber in Milan; and St. Lawrence Jewry and the Church of the Holy Trinity in London. She has performed as a soloist with the East-West Philharmonic Orchestra, the Grosseto Symphony Orchestra, and the Moroccan Philharmonic Orchestra, under the baton of Henryk Pisarek, Emir Saul, and Olivier Holt, respectively. In July 2014, she was invited to open the Palermo Classica International Festival, performing Nino Rota's Concerto Soirée with the Palermo Classica Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Stefano Mazzoleni. She also participated in the Bethoveen Marathon at the same festival, performing the Sonata Op. 110 at the Palazzo Steri. In August 2015, she returned for the closing concert of the Palermo Classica Festival, during which she performed Keith Emerson's Concerto No. 1, for its first performance in Italy, and Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue under the baton of Scott Jackson Wiley and with the participation of the legendary rock pianist Keith Emerson as a special guest.

Primavera holds a Bachelor of Music degree with Honours from the Royal Academy of Music in London, having studied at the Colburn Conservatory in Los Angeles and the Juilliard School in New York. She studied with renowned professors including John Perry, Margaret Hair, Elizabeth Powell, and Ian Fountain. She also participated in masterclasses with Dmitri Bashkirov, Boris Petrushansky, Marc Durand, and Lev Vlassenko. Finally, she earned a Higher Diploma in Performance from the École Normale de Musique de Paris in 2014 under the tutelage of Marian Rybicki.

What I offer :

• Classes adapted to beginners or advanced students and their desired direction, while keeping to a rigorous method tailored to each student’s profile -

• Acquirement of the technique serving the goal the student has fixed for himself
• Simulating a musical situation in an entertaining way, using mediums that are personalized to the level of the student (includes music theory, forms of interpretation of a musical piece, various aspects of technique)
• The pleasurable aspect of playing one’s instrument is an essential part of the learning curve.
• If the student agrees, I film the end result (final performance of the student)

• Support and training for all types of musical projects: theatre, concerts, events, whatever the level

• Preparation for competitions in Jazz or popular forms of music for all types of instrumentalist:
• For various diplomas or music degrees
• Entrance exam for music conservatory or music academy
• End f year concerts

• Composition: whether it be for a group or an individual, developing the musical idea and execution of all the possibilities this represents

• I use all sorts of teaching tools I have been developing over the last 20 years, for example:

• Rhythmical work based on the Indian system of Konnakols, (working with rhythmical syllables to integrate different rhythms in an enjoyable way)
• Working on Harmony using the Jazz Music Notation system ( a universal language that simplifies all forms of learning Western Staff notation, jazz, pop or other forms of popular music)
• Melodic work using note visualisation
• Classical and Jazz piano technique
• Meditation & muscular relaxation

Daniel
Pianist for over 12 years, I help beginner and intermediate students to progress on the piano and enjoy playing their favorite pieces.

. Music styles:

- Pop/contemporary music (Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Imagine Dragons, Yiruma, Yann Tiersen, Ludovico Einaudi, etc.)
- Classical music (Bach, Chopin, Beethoven, etc.)
- Film music (La La Land, Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, etc.)
- French pop music (Francis Cabrel, Jean-Jacque Goldman, etc.)

. My teaching method:

- Beginner level: my work is based on the book "J'apprends le piano tout simplement" by Christophe Astié, a simple and progressive method for learning the basics of piano (reading sheet music, music theory, playing with two hands, chords, etc.). Once some basic skills have been acquired, we can begin to learn the pieces you wish for.

- Intermediate level: Instruction is personalized based on the pieces you wish to learn. I will guide you through reading sheet music, interpreting the piece, and improving your technique, while providing you with tailored theoretical knowledge. The goal is to enable you to play your favorite pieces with fluidity and confidence.

. Location: At home (Antony and surrounding areas - Nanterre and surrounding areas)

. Limited availability:
I still have a few slots available for Saturday afternoons and Sundays.

To book lessons, please contact me by message on this platform.
See you soon at the piano!

- My students' opinions - (translated in English)

"My daughter Louane (10 years old) has been taking piano lessons with Daniel for 8 months now, and the progress she's made is incredible. She really enjoys playing, and it shows in her motivation and consistency. What we particularly appreciate is Daniel's gentleness and kindness, as well as his teaching style, which is very child-friendly.
Louane can choose the pieces she likes, which makes her even more involved, and music theory is naturally integrated into the learning process. It's an approach that's both fun and effective. Thank you for your patience and your infectious passion!" - Nathalie C.

"Excellent teacher, excellent teaching style! My son has progressed much more this year than in previous years. Daniel is patient and adapts to his student's needs. I recommend him 100%." - François M.

"After playing the piano for 4 years and then stopping for 21, I decided to take piano lessons with Daniel since August 2024. I quickly noticed progress and I recommend him for his professionalism, kindness, and friendliness.
I also appreciate being able to choose the pieces I want to learn." - Marjolaine.
