Online saxophone lesson for beginners and advanced players!
How does a normal saxophone lesson look?
A saxophone lesson is completely different every time. Maybe one week we'll learn a difficult technical piece and the next week a popular song of you choice. Sometimes we talk a little bit about music theory, other times we may be improvising.
The first lessons we'll focus on building a good foundation: a perfect posture, the right breathing technique, finger- and mouth-positioning. A little knowledge about the instrument itself is certainly not skipped.
Do I have to know music theory beforehand?
No. During the lesson I will teach you music theory, to immediately apply it in practice. Rest assured, this does not precede playing the saxophone. For the people who already have a background in music theory, all the better. In the lessons I can refine your theoretical knowledge.
How often do classes take place?
You choose how often the saxophone lessons take place, this always depends on what you want to achieve yourself. It goes without saying that the more regularly you take lessons, the greater my commitment is. This is because the follow-up is easier. This of course depends entirely on your own work / school / life schedule.
How often will I have to practice?
Learning any instrument takes time and effort. The ideal solution is that you can practice a little bit every day, but I know that this is not possible for many. It is mainly a matter of exercising as consistently as possible. Preferably five minutes every day, then once a week for two hours.
How long does it take before I can play known songs?
That depends entirely on yourself. If you can practice every day from day one, it won't be long at all. If, on the other hand, you take your saxophone once every two weeks, it can take longer
From and until what age can I learn to play the saxophone?
There is no age on music. The young children can test whether they can hold a saxophone. For the little ones it is advisable to learn to play the saxophone on a curved soprano. The alt saxophone is the best option for all other interested people.

About Me
Al op jonge leeftijd begon ik met muziek. Ik startte mijn muzikale carrière aan de Muziekacademie te Gent. Enkele jaren later besloot ik er volledig voor te gaan en ging ik saxofoon studeren aan de muziekhumaniora. In MUDA kreeg ik les van Andy Declerck. Ik studeerde er af als Laureaat Jazz & Popmuziek in 2014. Toen werd ik toegelaten aan het Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Daar studeerde ik voor één jaar, en kreeg ik les van enkele uitstekende muzikanten als Jasper Blom, Simon Rigter, Marc Scholten, etc.In 2019 haalde ik mijn masterdiploma aan het Conservatorium van Gent, Hier kreeg ik les van Bart Defoort (Brussels Jazz Orchestra). In 2020 haal ik mijn educatieve masterdiploma.
In 2013 begon ik met les te geven. Ik geef aan zowel jonge kinderen (7 jaar), als aan volwassenen (75+) saxofoon les. Naast privé les geef ik les op de Academie van Geraardsbergen en Izegem. Wil je weten hoe zo’n les in elkaar zit? Neem een kijkje bij De Lessen.
Ik speel(de) in verschillende projecten waaronder, maar niet uitsluitend, Screens (Gent Jazz, Brussels Jazz Weekend, Winnaar XL Concours, Ham Sessions), Jake Walker (Vooruit, met tours in Duitsland en Groot-Brittanië), het Wouter Van den Broeck Quartet, het Ghent Youth Jazz Orchestra (met een kleine tour in Japan en Groot-Brittanië), Tudau Quartet en anderen. Ook als vervanger ben ik te zien bij Eclectiv, Bigband ‘86, etc.
Wanneer ik niet bezig ben met muziek, kan je me vinden aan een klimmuur, of al wandelend in de natuur.

Cello lessons for everyone! Learn how to play cello or improve your musical skills!Hi, I'm Laura, I'm a cellist and I love to share my musical knowledge with other people.

I also offer lessons focused on music theory if that is what you are looking for!
If you want to learn to play the cello or improve your skills do not hesitate to write me!
John
Professional jazz musician teaching jazz, blues, funk, R&B, pop, rock, latin and classical piano.I teach online via Zoom, using software which allows you to see the exact keys I'm playing on my keyboard.
My teaching method is to focus on whatever type of music the student loves most, and to build from there. I believe that many people give up their dream of playing an instrument simply because they aren't inspired enough, so my goal is to instil a love for music, whatever that means personally for each individual student.
Everyone learns differently and has their own pace and rhythm. I have some students who like to have a regular weekly or biweekly lesson, and others who just get in touch once in a while when they have digested the previous lesson and feel ready to build on it. Whatever the case, I am very flexible and we can figure out what works best for you.
A bit about me:
Originally honing my skills on the British jazz scene and holding residencies in restaurants and bars around the country, I then went on to tour the world playing on cruise ships, hotels and festivals. I returned to London to complete my master's in jazz piano at the Guildhall School of Music, and during this time performed regularly at Ronnie Scotts, The Vortex and many other venues across the UK. I then spent two years in South America learning about salsa and Cuban music. I now mainly work as a transcriber, writing sheet music for all instruments including full Big Band scores. I have also worked extensively in musical theatre, most recently as musical director for 'Jersey Boys', and on the first US national tour of 'Summer: the Donna Summer Musical'. The video shown below is from my stint playing and directing 'After Midnight', a show set to the music of the Duke Ellington Big Band.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.
