About Me
Hi, I graduated as a Master of Music at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague and I have several projects as a composer/arranger and bass player.
Besides an active life as a musician, I teach piano, bass guitar/contrabass, composition and music theory to students of all levels and ages.

I made arrangements/compositions for, among others, the Fuse Ensemble (NL) and I play live with my Jazz Quintet, where I play bass and compose for this band, with which i recorded a CD, ‘Vortex’.
Those and other and new musical experiences inspire me to continue for further development as musician and to pass on my musical knowledge to others.

(English below) Groovy basslines & Broad styles. Your musical taste takes center stage! We work purposefully on technique, timing, and creativity. Together, we determine the direction we take, with the joy of playing always coming first.

All professional teaching methods I use include online play-along audio. This allows you to practice flexibly and interactively at home with complete rhythm sections and accompaniments in styles such as Pop, Funk, Jazz, Latin, or Classical.

Double bass for young bassists (6-12 years). For young children, I use specially developed, playful, and effective methods such as Vamoosh (Thomas Gregory) or Bass is Best! (Caroline Emery). This way, from the very first lesson, we build a solid, healthy basic technique in a fun way.

Your choice of repertoire and concepts. For older students and adult bassists (from beginner to advanced), we dive into a wide range of genres. On the double bass, we explore classical etudes, jazz walking basslines, or pop/rock patterns, combined with essential rhythmic theory.

Age & Level: For all ages (from 6 years) and levels.
Languages: The lessons are taught in English, Dutch, Spanish, Catalan, or Portuguese.

Hello! I am Patricia, double bass, electric bass and baby bass player from Spain and live in Vlaardingen (Netherlands).

I have studied up to Dutch A2 level, so I can have basic conversations and teach Dutch at a basic level. We can also have lessons in English, Spanish or Catalan.

I studied the bachelor's degree at the jazz department in Codarts and also the master's degree in Codarts (but in the Latin department). In addition, I took an extra course during my bachelor studies to learn lessons (I have an official certificate).

I have a lot of experience playing all over the world with many different bands and orchestras, such as in the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Colombia and Mexico with electric bass, double bass and Baby bass (electric double bass).

As a music teacher, I have 4 years of experience teaching children, teenagers and adults of different levels.

As a bass teacher, I always tailor my lessons to the student from day one, asking about your music preferences and which tunes you want to play. Music theory if you want to improve as a musician, but I also understand that it can be boring, that's why from the first lesson you will learn theory while playing your favorite songs. I will adjust the program for you.

I can also give you tips about bass amplifiers, music software, etc., because I also studied sound engineering and worked as a sound engineer for many years.

The most important thing for me as a teacher is that you learn and at the same time have fun playing your instrument and improve yourself as a musician!
