Leading a group of musicians. Conducting is a necessary part of every performance with an orchestra, a wind band, opera performances, a choir and even smaller groups. Would you like to grab the baton?

I'm a specialist in the conducting of Contemporary Music, which requires a deep knowledge of the music and how it works. I can teach any interested student how to conduct any kind of group: do you want to become the conductor of your local wind band? Are you planning to start your own small orchestra and you want to know how to conduct it? We can work together on that, so you will learn, gradually, how to deal with all the required things to lead any group: the musical part itself, but also the group psychology, management, etc.

Join this class and enjoy of making music!

Music theory is very important for anyone looking to learn an instrument! It helps broaden an understanding of the instrument and will also help you progress faster!
If you are looking to do ABRSM instrumental exams, you will need to pass grade 5 music theory in order to progress to grade 6 in your instrumental exams, therefore I will be able to guide you to passing your grade 5 theory paper and beyond.
I am also a professional freelance musician and conductor, for anyone interested in conducting, we can discuss how to approach a score in relation to this.

I completed my undergraduate studies in conducting at Seoul National University in Korea, where I studied under Professor Emeritus Hun-Joung Lim. He is highly regarded as the only conductor in Korea who has performed the complete symphonies of Mahler and Bruckner, as well as many challenging and lesser-known repertoires. Under his guidance, I was able to significantly expand my repertoire and deepen both my musical knowledge and artistic vision.

Currently, I am pursuing my master’s degree in conducting under the Professor Marc Piollet at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz, Austria.

My lessons are mainly offered online and cover a wide range of topics: from basic conducting techniques to musical interpretation, conducting methods, and the professional attitude required of a conductor. For students preparing for entrance examinations, I provide focused and specialized training tailored to their needs.

I hold a diploma in orchestral conducting from ESMUC and have 28 years of experience working as a composer, arranger, and performer in Spain and Germany. I specialize in the subjects that students often find both the most challenging and the most rewarding: music theory, analysis, arranging, and conducting.
My focus is always on understanding the why of music, not just the how. And since each student brings a different background, pace, and goals, I adapt my teaching style to the individual student—whether that's to calmly build a solid foundation or to move towards greater complexity when you're ready.

I am a Finnish composer and conductor currently living and working in the Netherlands. Whether you're completely new to composition or an experienced musician willing to explore new ideas, these lessons are designed around your individual interests, goals and musical background.

We can work on anything from the fundamentals of melody, harmony, rhythm and musical structure to advanced compositional techniques, orchestration, musical analysis and developing your own compositions. My own speciality is in classical and contemporary music, but all genres and styles are welcome, and we can surely find inspiring ways to develop your musical writing and thinking.

My teaching approach is personal, flexible and practical. I believe that learning should be an enjoyable experience. It's important to me that a student feels safe, and that there are space for mistakes, experiments and of course the joy of music.

There is no single right way to make music. Let's find yours!
