Learn the Saxophone in an easy and different way

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Yes ! You read correctly !
It is possible to learn a piece easily with the saxophone.
I am a saxophone teacher at the Ecole Internationale de Lausanne, at the Ecole Nouvelle of French-speaking Switzerland, and I regularly teach young students. To get their attention, you have to be creative and you have to see results in a very short time.
That's why I say that I can teach you to play a piece on the saxophone in 3 lessons. So, if you want to try, I'd be happy to show you how.

Marcos begins his studies at the Conservatory of Music of Tenerife. During these years, he studied professional education, specializing in music at the University of La Laguna. Then he took the top grade in the Zaragoza Conservatory of Music, where he finished with Professor Mariano García.

After completing his studies, Marcos graduated from the University of Zaragoza with a Master's degree in Secondary Education.

Currently he is studying the Master's degree - Concert with Pierre-Stéphane Meugé at the HEMU Lausanne.

Very interested in saxophone pedagogy, with extensive experience as a teacher, Marcos offers personalized work with every student, adapting to all ages and levels.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I can describe myself as someone in love with music and teaching. During my last seven years of training, I have combined this with my work as a teacher of music and saxophone at the private level and in some schools in Spain and Switzerland. During this time, I had the opportunity to learn from my teachers and my students to develop different pedagogical techniques focused on facilitating the learning of my students, aimed at all levels and all ages. I discovered that when a person is in love with his work, his work is much more effective and the love for music and saxophone is naturally transmitted to his students.

Marcos begins his musical and educational training in Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain), in the Conservatory of Music of Tenerife and the University of La Laguna). His love for pedagogy and music led him to teach music reinforcement and music theory lessons to some of his classmates at the university. During his training in Tenerife he began to participate in different sets of music and orquestes, combining different styles of music (classical, Latin, modern, pop-rock ...). Just after completing his studies in Tenerife (2011) he decided to move to the Iberian Peninsula to pursue his ambitions and he began his bachelor studies with the excellent teacher and saxophonist Mariano García in the Conservatory of Music of Aragón at the same time. He began his career as a saxophone teacher in some schools and academies in Zaragoza. Just after finishing with excellent qualifications his Bachelor (2015) he begins his Master of Education in the University of Zaragoza and at the same time he prepares the admission examinations of the High School of Music of Lausanne.

I offer a lot of duets to raise awareness about playing together. Finally, I try to transmit a musical sensitivity that will allow the student to flourish in various musical contexts.

Máté
Saxophone lessons for beginner/intermediate/advanced level
Learning basic techniques, music theory, improvisation and ear development are part of the training. The saxophone course is personalized depending on whether it is a beginner or an advanced student. Beginner students will learn the solid basics, such as: good posture, good breathing, producing a beautiful sound, scale exercises, reading sheet music, basic rhythmic exercises. We will perform these exercises from different scores, which I can provide if necessary, and at the same time I also try to convey my own experiences. In general, I first show the exercise on my instrument and then let the student try to play it. We often play together. For advanced students, we will learn more complex pieces, more difficult harmonic and rhythmic exercises, thus expanding the limits of the instrument. Classes also include some music theory and history of music during class. I also consider it important to show how one can work effectively alone.

Saxophone lessons for all levels! (Online or at your place)
With beginner saxophone students, we will first work on proper instrument holding and posture. Then, before blowing into the saxophone, we will practice long-tone exercises using the mouthpiece. Once comfortable with these fundamentals, we will start producing sound from the instrument and learning the notes. We will focus on long-tone exercises to develop control and consistency. We gradually start incorporating short exercises or simple melodies as the student progresses. Learning and progressing on an instrument mostly depends on the student's dedication and practice habits. If you love music and commit time to it, you can reach a good level in a short period!

Hi, I’m Cassie—a British jazz saxophonist, award-winning composer, and Trinity Laban Conservatoire graduate, now based in Berlin. I’m currently looking for a couple of private saxophone and/or composition students who are keen to develop their skills in a supportive and engaging environment. Saxophone Lessons: With a strong background in Jazz and improvised music, I offer saxophone lessons tailored to each student’s needs—whether you’re preparing for ABRSM or Royal College exams (or other equivalent examination boards), exploring jazz improvisation, or just playing for fun. As a performer, I’ve played at major festivals and venues across the UK, USA & Europe such as Glastonbury Festival (UK, SXSW (USA) and Paris Jazz Festival (FR). I am still active as a touring band-leader/artist and I bring that real-world experience into my teaching. Composition Lessons: As a classical composer, my work spans orchestral, chamber, and jazz ensemble writing, with commissions from leading arts organisations and orchestras - recent commissions include the London Symphony Orchestra and BBC Philharmonic. My lessons focus on notation, orchestration, and arranging—whether you’re composing for small ensembles or larger-scale works. I hold a BMus Hons degree in composition from Trinity Laban Conservatoire (London) where I studied with American composer Stephen Montague and British composer Andrew Poppy. Composition lessons I am able to teach both in-person and online via Zoom. If you're interested or have any questions, feel free to get in touch! Looking forward to making music with you! 🎷🎼
