Cellist, graduate of musical pedagogy and student at the HEM, I offer my services as a private teacher or repeater.

Whether you are beginner or advanced, child or big child, the goal is the same: to help you develop your pleasure to play, and to exchange, through a wide range of musical styles.

Beginners: "Instrument says the human voice, the cello has 1000 and 1000 colors.A regular investment in the work will allow you to access its sound world, open door to multiple musical languages, and vehicle of your sensitivity.
Come try! "

At the start, we will set the course framework and define a line of work: we talk about your tastes, goals, motivation, musical background and investment time in the week. "

Advanced: "I propose an accompaniment in the technical work and the discovery of the repertoire."

Are regularly used in class: fantasy, singing, improvisation and body rhythm exercises, duet play.


Classes are given in Geneva or in neighboring France, at your home or mine (Champel district).

I look forward to meeting you,

Oriane

Having recently obtained my masters degree in Music from the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, I have been teaching piano, music theory and electroacoustic music for 8 years.

As a former student of the Conservatoire de Musique of Geneva and a music technology undergrad, I offer a tailored program to your needs and wishes. Be it classical jazz or pop music or music theory, composition and improvisation (or all of these!), I will gladly instruct you in a friendly and playful way.

Graduated with a master's degree in Music and Environment at the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, I offer piano, music theory and electroacoustic music lessons for all ages.

Both classical piano training with years of study at the Geneva Conservatory and electroacoustic training with a bachelor's degree in music technology, I provide a program adapted to the needs and desires of each student. With seven years of experience under my belt and having had students of all ages and backgrounds, I gladly teach classical pieces, jazz, pop, but also music theory or even composition or improvisation. At the same time, I also teach electroacoustic composition to children.

As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.

As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.

Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.

In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

My goal is to discover the beauty of the cello, for anyone of any age, and at any level!
I am already looking forward to meeting you and I hope we can share together in music!
Renting a cello can be seen as a complex task, but finding a cello to rent is actually very simple!
I can also help with research.

I started playing the cello at 5 and a half years old. I obtained my certificate at the Conservatory of Music of Geneva in 2019 and my Bachelor of Arts at the Haute École de Musique in 2022. I obtained my Master of Pedagogy in June 2024.

Patient, pedagogical, and attentive to the student's needs, my lessons are structured to help them progress quickly. My motivation for teaching stems from a desire to share my passion for music with everyone.

In my courses, practice and theory have an equal place: technical exercises, clarifications in solfège, chamber music and simple pieces then more complex depending on the student's level and desires.

Indeed, you are free to choose what you want to work on, suggest pieces as well as delve deeper into a particular point, a specific technique for the more experienced.

Having started playing this instrument at the age of six, my deep attraction to music developed gradually through dance, chamber music and the orchestra in particular.

Currently, I give private and group lessons (from musical awakening to more advanced levels) as well as concerts in different venues (churches, performance halls, hospitals, EMS).

I was educated at the CRR of Rueil-Malmaison where I obtained my Diploma of Musical Studies (DEM) a few years ago, then at the Geneva Higher School of Music (HEM).

For the past ten years, I have been gaining experience in cello and music theory pedagogy, which is constantly evolving and requires ongoing personal reflection on oneself and the student, as well as a certain degree of adaptability. My students are of all ages and levels.

I have been teaching for many years in various schools, including the Centre Artistique du Lac, an art school, and the Notre-Dame du Lac institute in Geneva.
I also play regularly with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande and the Geneva Chamber Orchestra.

I really like teaching in private because it gives us the possibility of creating à la carte lessons and being as close as possible to the needs and pleasure of each student.
Lessons are for all ages, all levels, individual or in small groups.
Feel free to ask questions 😊

I offer recorder and/or music theory lessons, tailored to each student's needs. You can choose to focus on the instrument, deepen your musical understanding through music theory, or combine both for a comprehensive learning experience. For recorder, we work on breath control, fingering, articulation, posture, interpretation of early and contemporary repertoire, ornamentation, improvisation, and more. For music theory, I adapt my method to your level: reading notes and rhythms, listening skills, identifying intervals, fundamental harmonics, and understanding musical language. My approach is dynamic, supportive, and structured, always attentive to the student's pace and interests.

You want to get to know your voice, sing with your body, and understand how your voice works. Singing is an exciting playground. I invite you to explore, in a gentle and supportive space, to experience it and become familiar with your instrument.

Hello !
Passionate and highly motivated, I offer tailor-made cello or baroque cello lessons, adapted to your organization, your personality and your desires.
If you are looking for varied, supportive learning at your own pace, you are in the right place.
For me, it is essential to give you the technical tools to approach the music you love with complete peace of mind. This learning process involves an analytical approach to body control and a refined awareness of movement. Drawing inspiration from the Alexander Technique and breath work, I help you find deep relaxation with the instrument. To achieve this, I create personalized exercises based on my own technical research. In addition, I utilize recognized progressive methods to solidify your foundation (Feuillard's Young Cellist Method, Valérie Aimard's CelloKids, Yampolsky, etc.).
Then... it's time for the music of your dreams and sharing! Technique is simply a tool at the service of music. Alongside the fundamental work, we'll emphasize the joy of playing the repertoire of your choice: we'll work on the music you truly love. If a score doesn't exist or proves too complex, I'll create custom arrangements especially for you! But of course, music is first and foremost about sharing. I'll regularly accompany you in duets during our lessons to develop your listening skills and musicality.
Indeed, playing together is very stimulating. Furthermore, I can occasionally organize meetings between students who wish to participate, giving you the opportunity to meet, exchange ideas, and play together in a friendly atmosphere.

If you are passionate about early music, please note that I also offer lessons in Baroque cello. Whether you wish to begin or improve your skills on a historical instrument (gut strings, Baroque bow), or explore this specific repertoire with the aesthetics and phrasing of the period on your modern cello, I would be delighted to guide you in your learning.

Feel free to contact me to discuss your musical preferences. I look forward to meeting you and starting this adventure together!
