    Singing and Songwriting Classes with a professional musician!

    Dive into singing and songwriting with classes that are all about finding your voice and making your own music. I didn't start off as a great singer, but after years of practice, I've learned a lot and want to share that with you. Whether you're just beginning or you've been at it for a while, I'm here to help you get better and have fun doing it.

    I've been the lead singer in a bunch of bands, singing everything from really heavy music to pop and rock. I know what it's like to sing on stage and in the studio, and I'll teach you what I've learned about both.

    You can look at my profile to see more about what I've done.

    People say I'm patient, kind, and make learning fun. I care a lot about singing the right way so you don't hurt your voice. I've been into music for about 25 years now, so I've got tons of tips to share. Let's start singing together!

    About Me

    Hey, I'm David, an award-winning educated Singer, Guitarist, Bassist, Music Producer and Composer. Growing up in music school set me on a path to gather a bunch of musical skills along the way. I'm not just throwing around a list of instruments—I've dedicated a portion of my life to learning each one. From guitars (both electric and classical) to piano, bass guitar, double bass, and even a dabbling in drums—I've given each instrument its due attention. But, I didn't stop there; I was a singer my whole life and I spent time in a lot of different genres (Operatic singing, Metal screaming, Rock and Pop), I also compose orchestral music, and produce pop tracks too. These skills aren’t just for show—I've dedicated chunks of my life to mastering them, and I've got the experience to prove it!

    I believe that with the evolving music industry we have to evolve as individuals. Music is a constant subject to change, so, whether you are a teacher or a performer, you have to welcome that change. My goal is to use it to my advantage as an artist and a teacher while bringing some of my own change into the world through my music and through shaping the young minds of tomorrow.

    Singing lessons with an italian lyric-coloratura soprano. From opera to modern and pop. (Masters degree in singing with honours, cum Laude)
    My classes are different depending on your level and age. With children from 7 to 12, we start by doing easy vocalization and start training the ear with intonation, we then have fun singing your favorite songs. With teenagers, I also start with some vocalization, a little more elaborate. Depending on the student's capabilities, we start establishing a comfortable range for them and then proceed to singing. For my older students ideally, I divide our lesson into 2 sections. We work on respiration and how the diaphragm works. We do scales and arpeggios and work on intonation. We then proceed to singing and putting into practice our technique. Some students might need more technique before they actually sing, I like to take things slowly and make sure the student feels confident and comfortable singing. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, from beginners to more advanced. Classical training enables you to sing in any kind of way, so don’t hesitate and let’s sing!

    Italian soprano offers coaching of Italian Pronunciation for singers
    As an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing. Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing. We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis. We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them. In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!

    Oud and oriental Arabic singing lessons with an experienced teacher
    Experienced teacher of Oud and oriental Arabic singing for over 11 years, I am Lebanese and currently residing in Germany. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I taught at the Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and gave private lessons. In addition, I was conductor of the Loubnan Assalam oriental orchestra for over 5 years. My recommendation for learning the Oud is to start with the study of notes and musical notation before tackling pieces. Although some students prefer to play songs directly, understanding the basics of musical notation allows for faster progress in the long run. With determination and hard work, significant progress can be made in a year, allowing one to play simple melodies. Please feel free to leave me a message, I will reply as soon as possible.

    Ziad
    Oriental Arabic Oud and Singing Teacher in Germany
    In our Oud class, I will guide you through everything from basic to advanced techniques. We will cover playing for all levels, correct left-hand use, synchronizing with the right hand, handling the pick, tuning the Oud, and effectively using a tuner and metronome. In the remaining time, we will dive into reading musical notes, starting with basic Solfege and progressing to advanced and oriental Solfege, including dictation exercises. This comprehensive approach ensures a well-rounded musical journey My recommendation for learning the Oud is to begin by studying musical notes and notation before delving into songs. While some students prefer to jump straight into playing songs, understanding the fundamentals of music notation accelerates progress in the long run. Dedication and hard work can yield significant progress within a year, enabling you to play simple tunes. Feel free to leave me a message, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
