Saxophone lessons for beginner/intermediate/advanced level
course price icon
From 126 C$ /h
arrow icon
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.

About Me
My name is Máté, I am a Hungarian jazz saxophonist. I am finishing my studies in Master performance this year at the Haute École de Musique de Lausanne.
I am a member of the Symbiosis 5 quintet with which we won first places at the Getxo Jazz Festival 2023, Sibiu Jazz Festival 2023 and Müpa Jazz Showcase 2023 in Budapest.

My music styles are jazz (especially bebop, hardbop and modal jazz), experimental music.

Have you always wanted to try the saxophone?
Are you passionate about jazz, about improvisation but you don't know how to start?
You have already acquired skills but you would like to improve them?
I will join you with pleasure!

I give lessons to beginner, intermediate and advanced level saxophonists. A first lesson is offered to the student in order to get to know each other and discuss the goals with the student.

It is with great pleasure that I will put all my knowledge at the service for the purpose of effective learning.

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.

VIOLIN: My lessons cover several aspects necessary for good violin playing and free musical expression: healthy body posture, stable technique, attentive listening, musicality, personal development. It is from these notions that the quality of sound, intonation, bowing technique, technical skill, expression, and many others arise. I also give importance to well-being, self-confidence, or other abilities that the student would like to acquire.

TRANSVERSE FLUTE: My lessons cover several aspects necessary for good playing of the transverse flute and free musical expression: healthy body posture, stable technique, attentive listening, musicality, personal development. It is from these notions that the quality of sound, digital and respiratory technique, intonation, expression, and many others arise. I also give importance to well-being, self-confidence, or other abilities that the student would like to acquire.

SOLFÈGE: My courses cover several aspects necessary for the successful learning of music theory: strategies for recognizing intervals, chords and rhythms and their executions, singing, musical indications, exercises, attentive listening, musicality. These aspects are essential to instrumental practice, because they first allow you to correctly read a score, then analyze and interpret it.
