Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I profile each of my lessons according to the desires and musical objectives of the student. People of all levels, from novice to initiated are welcome!

For beginners: solid learning of the basics of the instrument (mouthpiece, sound, posture, technique, etc.) to be able to quickly play the first musical tunes. Learning music theory (reading and understanding the score) will be done in parallel.
For amateurs: work on technique, expression, reading and discovery of the repertoire in order to progress and achieve your goals.

Direct heir to the teaching of Marcel Mule, the 'Father' of the French saxophone, I would be delighted to share my method and my experience with you.

Do not hesitate to contact me so that we can discuss your projects and expectations.

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
After graduating from a DEM at 16, I continued my higher education in Toulouse and Zurich (Switzerland), before starting a career as an orchestra in Lyon and then in Paris.

Experience / Qualifications

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I was able to teach in a music school in Toulouse and I also led personal projects at the same time (jazz band, quartet, orchestra, chamber music, etc.).

I was lucky enough to be able to perform in large venues such as the Halle aux Grains in Toulouse, the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris…

Currently a musician in a professional orchestra in Paris, I pursue an educational activity by giving lessons at home and I also carry out personal projects around video clips and concerts.

Excellent contact. Etienne is very educational, which makes learning the instrument easier. I'm looking forward to doing the other courses.

Saxophone lessons for all levels, jazz and other styles
I graduated from the CNSMDP (National Conservatory of Music and Dance in Paris) in Saxophone Jazz (Master). I teach saxophone for all types of levels and styles. I like to approach learning this instrument through oral transmission rather than through methods or scores. This is how I learned music and jazz in particular. (I also oriented my dissertation around solo recording and learning through imitation.) However, I read music very well and can work with scores if the student prefers to work that way, or if the style of music requires sheet music.

Graduated saxophonist with 10 years of experience teaches saxophone and music theory.
I use the methods of the conservatory and I rely in particular on the works of pillars of the saxophone. I teach classical saxophone and / or current music (pop, jazz, funk). During a first class, we define your instrumental level and your objectives, in order to establish a working method that will allow you to progress, by specifically targeting areas for improvement. I divide each session into three parts: music theory / theory, instrumental practice and progressive learning of a piece chosen in consultation with the student. This allows him to gain autonomy in the practice of music by finding pleasure in playing. I address myself to all audiences (children and adults) and to all levels (beginners and experienced).

I systematically prepare my lessons and readjust them after each meeting. With my students, we work on texts from the classical and modern repertoire, linking theory and real practice. The pupil also prepares the course by exercises or practical work. I would like to continue to work in the long term with students, amateur or professional musicians, in order to share my passion and transmit the foundations of music: musical training, music theory, musical analysis, orchestration or even writing. musical.
