About Me

I am a musician by training, have lived and worked on and off in Great Britain for 45 years, and have over 35 years of experience teaching music and languages. I studied piano and conducting, with recorder, ocarina, tin whistle and other keyboard instruments as minor subjects, as well as musicology.
My particular interest lies in "forgotten" composers of the 19th century and the American organ (treadle organ/harmonium).
My teaching method depends on the knowledge level and expectations of my pupils and students.
Currently, my focus is on adults who want to expand their knowledge online. I teach in German and English. I am also happy to take on older children and teenagers from about 12 years old.

Education

Graduated from high school in 1983, studied at the Detmold University of Music in 1985, founded our own publishing house in 1991, taught at schools, colleges and as a private tutor. Regular concert appearances since the late 1970s, as a soloist or accompanist.

Experience / Qualifications

I passed my O-Levels in London in 1979, then graduated from high school in 1983 with advanced courses in German and English, then studied music at the HfM Detmold. Since my school days I have performed regularly, been successful in competitions and have taught. I also sent my own students to competitions and prepared many of them for the entrance exams to various universities. I am married to a British musician (French horn, ocarina, flute, all flutes and composition). After living in London in the 1990s, we moved to Wales in 2008. We live with our two children in one of the most beautiful parts of Wales, the "Valleys". Here we work out our own concert programs, research and publish our own grades and teach. My "hobby" is Irish and Celtic music, with which I also make buske = street music. We are happy about contacts to Germany and think that online teaching has a great future.

"Play Your Colours" tongue drum for children (small drum) or as a meditation instrument (large drum with 13 tongues or more)

85 C$ /h

The tongue drum has generated a lot of interest in recent years; more and more adults are discovering its calming sounds, especially for meditation, pranayama breathing techniques, or relaxation.
Together with Tibetan singing bowls, a spherical experience is created.

For children, the tongue drum with only 8 tongues, each with a color code, is ideal for a carefree introduction to making music at an early age. Fun without pressure!

ON-LINE! Tin Whistle (Penny Whistle, Irish Whistle) lessons

85 C$ /h

Tin Whistle .... the Irish / Celtic instrument par excellence. The instrument with the special tone.
I offer a solid introduction for beginners, reveal "tricks of the trade", and explain the fundamental differences to how to play the flute.
The Irish whistle is certainly not the cheap "fun instrument" that it is often viewed as. Inexpensive yes, but by no means cheap.

Being highly skilled in sight-reading, I have often realised how valuable and enjoyable it is to possess that “gift.” After more than ten years of teaching students of different levels and aspirations, I have observed a common thread: regardless of their goals, all were eager to improve their ability to read and interpret new, unfamiliar music.

Currently, I am developing a multifaceted approach designed to help students understand a composition at first sight. This method combines specific pattern recognition and structural score-mapping, anchored in a fundamental understanding of rhythm, pitch, and harmony, together with highly effective practice and memorization strategies personalized to each student's needs and technical challenges.

For over ten years, I have been teaching students of all ages and levels. In addition to regular lessons, I offer the opportunities to perform at the yearly class concert as well as dedicated preparation for ABRSM piano examinations.

I'm a pianist with extensive performing experience on international stages and a first-prize winner of more than 30 international piano competitions across Europe and USA. I hold a Master's degree and four Postgraduate degrees (piano and chamber music) from the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.

Hi! I’m Didac Barber, a professional concert pianist and experienced teacher from Spain, now based in the Netherlands.

I hold a Master’s in Piano Performance from The Hartt School (USA) and trained at ESMUC Barcelona, studying with top international pianists like Adolf Pla and Luiz de Moura Castro. I’ve performed across Europe, the U.S., and Asia, and have taught piano for over 15 years — in conservatories, private studios, and internationally online.

My passion lies not only in performance but in helping students discover what they are capable of. I’m dedicated, empathetic, and patient — and I want you to enjoy your learning journey as much as I do sharing it.

Each student is different, and so are my lessons.
Whether you're just starting out or already preparing for auditions or performances, I’ll adapt the lesson to your goals, challenges, and musical taste.

We can work, all in a way that feels personal and motivating, on:
* Technique and sound production
* Repertoire (classical, contemporary, film music, etc.)
* Musical expression and interpretation
* Performance preparation (concerts, exams, auditions)
* Practice strategies and confidence-building

I’m here to help you be the best pianist you can be, whether that means mastering Bach or finally playing your favorite piece with confidence.

Lessons are at students home or online, and taught in English, Spanish, or Catalan, unfortunately not in Dutch for now.

Feel free to message me if you have any questions. I’d love to hear about your musical goals and help you reach them.
Let’s make music together!

You can spend years learning one new piece after another and still remain at roughly the same level: reading note by note, struggling to see the connections within the music, and feeling helpless without a teacher. The repertoire changes, while the quality of playing, musical thinking and independence change very little.

I do not believe this should be the normal outcome of piano lessons.

The most valuable part of playing the piano is the feeling of genuinely owning the music: being able to enter its world, experience it fully and bring your own musical hearing to life at the instrument. My role as a teacher is to make the path from the score to that state as direct and natural as possible.

I teach music as a system and a language. Students learn to see the musical logic behind the notation: to understand harmony and form, follow the direction of a phrase, recognise style and character, and gradually become more fluent and independent musicians.

My teaching is rooted in the Russian academic piano tradition, but the repertoire can be classical, modern, film, anime or jazz-oriented. What matters is that the work remains serious, attentive and musically meaningful.

I work with motivated teenagers and adults, from beginners to advanced players.

With beginners, I aim to make score reading fluent and natural as early as possible while developing an understanding of how music works from the inside.

If a student already plays but feels stuck, I identify what is actually limiting further progress. Difficulties that seem separate are often connected, and I work with the underlying cause rather than treating each symptom in isolation.

After a long break, I help bring existing knowledge and skills back into active use, identify the genuine gaps and organise what remains into a working system from which the student can move forward.

With advanced students, the work can include mental practice and principles from Stanislavski’s system.

I am a concert pianist and piano educator with 23 years of teaching experience, from private work with students of different levels to university-level teaching at the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music.

I graduated with honours from the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music and later completed postgraduate studies there. For more than twenty years I performed in Russia and internationally across Europe, Asia and South America.

I received first prizes at the Salieri–Zinetti International Chamber Music Competition in Italy in 2010 and the Max Reger Chamber Music Competition in Germany in 2011, and recorded two albums for the Melodiya label.

Lessons are fully online and taught in English.
