Graduate in classical saxophone (HEMU) & music pedagogy (HKB) - Private lessons at home for beginners and advanced students

From 163 C$ /h

A passionate musician and experienced teacher, I have been teaching saxophone for over ten years in various conservatories and schools in France, Belgium, and Switzerland. Trained at the HEMU in Lausanne, the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, and the HKB in Bern, I have acquired solid expertise in performance and pedagogy.

My artistic journey has led me to prestigious stages, from the Jazz in Marciac festival to the DAM Festival in Kosovo, via major Swiss events such as Paléo, Cully Jazz or Verbier.

These experiences enrich my teaching and allow me to convey a vibrant and open vision of music. Patience, listening, and adaptability are at the heart of my method: each student progresses within a structured framework, but always in connection with their desires and curiosities.

My ambition is to inspire everyone to create, share and flourish through music, whether they aim for the stage or personal enjoyment.

Hello,

My name is Marco and I offer guitar lessons for children, teenagers and adults, from beginners to advanced musicians.

Listening to you, understanding what you dream of achieving, and then helping you to achieve it: that is my method.

We can work on technique and rhythm as well as harmony, music theory, improvisation, accompaniment or composition.

I adapt to each person's level, tastes, and goals. You can also come with a piece you've dreamed of playing for a long time: it's often an excellent starting point.

Whether you are a student, retiree, parent or child, complete beginner or experienced musician, you are welcome.

Looking forward to making music with you!

Whether you are an adult or younger, did you know that with the proper methods, follow-up and advice, you can reach in 2 years the equivalent of what is achieved in 10 years in music school? The passion and pleasure of playing will quickly make you forget the minimum 1h30 of daily practice necessary for this beautiful and pleasant feat. This is the challenge I set myself by offering you these courses.

Practicing classical guitar for 27 years, graduated from the National Conservatory of Limoges, I teach guitar (beginner to advanced levels).

My method is distinguished by a perfect combination of high standards and attention paid to the pleasure of playing.

Passionate about music theory (rhythms, musical notations and other aspects that seem tedious to many), I know how to transmit this taste for musical technique.

The pleasure of play develops when you feel your progress, and these come with regular work. I therefore ask for attendance and regularity of at least 1 hour of practice per day. Depending on the students, the frequency of lessons can be bi-weekly or bi-monthly, and will be defined together, while remaining flexible.

I can also advise you on the purchase of a classical guitar.

Note: the practice of the classical guitar requires short nails on the left hand, and nails overflowing just beyond the tip of the finger, on the right hand, at all times. This allows an inimitable sound quality.

References on request

Follow up by email/phone as needed between lessons.

Examples of pieces you will be able to play after a year: works by Bach, Giuliani, Fernando Sor, Carcassi, Aguado, Jeux Interdits, baroque flamenco, romantic works

As a student in a double master's program in jazz pedagogy and contemporary music at the Lausanne University of Music, I offer saxophone lessons.

My experience playing in very varied ensembles and styles (chamber music, metal groups, rock, funk, Cuban, gospel, tango, orchestras, big jazz band, etc.) and with various musical instruments has allowed me to allowed us to develop a versatile musical approach.

I followed a classical conservatory course in guitar and saxophone, then a jazz saxophone course.
I am currently studying bass and double bass at a music college, while continuing my activities as a saxophonist.

In parallel, I have worked as a teacher and researcher in acoustics at various universities, following a master's and a doctorate in acoustics and applied sciences to music.

During my lessons, I guide the student through a progressive and structured educational approach while guiding him or her in learning pieces that correspond to their objectives. 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.

I studied in Italy at the Conservatory of Music in Pesaro and I finished my piano studies with the maximum points. Currently I have a duo with a violinist and we play regularly in concert and at the same time I teach and transmit my passion to those who want to learn it.
I taught for 3 years in Rome in public and private music schools and currently I teach at the International School of Geneva.
My students have often participated in piano competitions and have always achieved excellent results.

My lessons are adapted according to the progress and desires of each student.
The duration of the lessons is not standard because I make sure that the student does not finish without having fully understood the topics explained during the lesson. A part of music theory and solfeggio is planned.
