Hello !

A great music enthusiast, I have a Master's degree in Jazz Saxophone and a year of Agrégation (teaching training) at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. I also have a Ph.D. from Laval University (Canada).

I am also a musician in various groups, and perform regularly in the United States and Europe.

My classes have a structure and are also personalized.

I adapt to what you want to learn, while giving importance to basic concepts: sound, accuracy, groove, harmony, ... until giving you independence and confidence necessary in order to learn for yourself.

In order to allow me to teach at a distance, and thanks to the enormous technological advances of recent years, I use the Skype program.

This allows us to keep regular courses, which are the key to successful learning, and to send you, in real time, the educational sheets used in class.

With my support, you will surprise yourself and can quickly have fun with this beautiful instrument.

Please contact Apprentus to receive my information ☺️


Hi there !

My name is Laurent.

Passionate about music, I hold a Master in Jazz studies in Saxophone from the Music Conservatory of Brussels. I also became a certified teacher (after followed a one year-long pedagogical training) at the same University. I also have a Ph.D. from Laval University (Québec city).

I am an active musician in various bands, and perform regularly in Europe and North America.

My lessons are structured yet highly personalized.

I will adapt to whatever YOU want to learn, while giving weight to basic concepts: the sound, intonation, groove, harmony, ... until you'll reach independence and have the confidence needed to learn by yourself.

In order to give long-distance support, I give you the best of my classes by Skype.

I believe that regularity is a key to success in learning a musical instrument, and I found the extra-flexibility of the online classes very profitable for that purpose.


Thanks to my assistance, you'll be surprised by how fast you'll be able to enjoy playing the saxophone!

I am a multi-instrumentalist (saxophone, transverse flute, keyboard), composer and arranger (SACEM member since 2012), excellent improviser. This course will allow you quickly, whatever your instrument and your technical level, to understand and master the chord sequences and the articulation of musical language according to these sequences. In addition, you will learn the most frequent or rare harmonic structures used by composers. And, theory notwithstanding, you will learn to develop your ear to identify harmonic structures. This course also includes an introduction to the history of jazz.

PROFESSIONAL GUITARIST, COMPOSER, MUSIC AND GUITAR TEACHER

Beginner-Advanced Level

Experience:
I am a professional musician and have been teaching students of all ages for over 20 years. My experience as a teacher and my pursuit of self-improvement as a musician have led me to develop an effective method that I have already tested with over a hundred students.
Throughout my career I had the satisfaction of studying with great masters of different specialties or styles, each one emphasizing different aspects of flamenco, classical or modern guitar and each one has given me their approach (technique, rhythms, accompaniment, harmony, etc.), which has led me after years of study and compilation to take the best from each one to develop my method.

My role in my classes is more that of a personal trainer than a teacher, where I will be very attentive to bringing out the best in my students, finding the right technique to help them develop a good rhythm, working on their rhythm, etc.
For me, the role of a teacher, in addition to teaching, is to be part of a team, to maintain morale and constantly improve oneself while always maintaining a love for music.

Methodology:
I tailor the lessons to the student's level, style, or goals. Generally, the first half of the lesson is dedicated to technique, focusing on proper placement, execution, and relaxation, which will result in a good sound. Over time, I've realized that it's also a way to connect with the guitar, concentrate, and warm up. So, little by little, we'll develop our routine, which will begin by working on basic rhythmic aspects.
The second half is dedicated to playing, trying to put into practice what we learned about the technique with the sticks or studying other concerns of the student, which may be a theme, harmony, falsetas, improvisation, or even other styles, etc., always obviously taking into account the search or interest of the student.


FLAMENCO
- Flamenco technique
- Palos (Tangos, Bulerías, Alegrías, Soleá, Taranta...)

I offer individual singing lessons tailored to your level, your voice and your goals, from beginners to singers wishing to perfect their technique.
Sessions generally begin with breathing exercises, posture work, and vocal warm-ups, before gradually moving on to vocal and musical work. We can work on pitch accuracy, quality, and projection of the voice, different registers, articulation, diction, and interpretation.
Particular attention is paid to bodily sensations and the relationship between breathing, voice, and expression. The goal is to develop a free and comfortable vocal delivery, while providing you with practical tools to better control your voice.
The work can be based on pieces of your choice. I can accompany you in classical, early and sacred singing, but also in other repertoires according to your tastes.
The lessons can meet different objectives: starting to sing, progressing technically, preparing a piece, working on diction, joining a choir or simply singing with more ease and pleasure.
