Clarinetist of the Republican Guard Orchestra and professor at the Conservatory (15 years of experience) gives clarinet lessons
From 99.98 C$ /h
With my experience as a teacher at the Conservatoire (in total I have given more than 8000 hours of lessons over the last 15 years), I am able to support you whatever your level: beginner, intermediate levels, returning to the clarinet after a break, preparation for competitive exams (young professionals).
My courses will allow you to acquire or consolidate solid technical foundations (knowledge of the instrument, body and breathing exercises, digital technique, sound production, etc.) while developing a personal musical sense (notions of phrasing, historical concepts and notions of musical analysis, etc.).
Possible additional lessons: music theory (possibility of mastering the basic concepts quickly), special techniques (continuous breathing, double detached, etc.), bass clarinet, small clarinet, basset horn.
I am committed to providing a comprehensive and demanding but above all caring education, in a warm atmosphere that puts each of my students at ease and allows them to develop their potential, whatever their level.

About Me
Member of the Republican Guard Orchestra, former member of the Verbier Festival Orchestra, regular guest of leading French symphony orchestras (Orchestre National de France, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, Orchestre de l'Opéra de Paris, Orchestre de Paris, National Orchestras of Lyon, Lille or Strasbourg...), I am keen to pass on what I have learned through these numerous musical and human experiences.
Having graduated with a Master's degree from the CNSMD in Lyon (class of Nicolas Baldeyrou), I had the opportunity to work with many renowned professors (Paul Meyer, Michel Arrignon, Stanley Drucker, etc.).
Passionate about teaching, I have been teaching private lessons since 2010, and since 2018 at the Gustave Charpentier Conservatory in Paris. An accomplished artist, I have performed on the most beautiful stages (Carnegie Hall in New York, Berlin Philharmonic, Vienna Konzerthaus, Philharmonic Hall in Bratislava, Hanoi Opera, Romanian Athenaeum and Salle du Palais in Bucharest, Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, Cité de la Musique in Paris... but also Accor Arena in Bercy alongside Ibrahim Maalouf...) and under the direction of the greatest conductors (Philippe Jordan, Valery Gergiev, Mikko Franck, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Daniel Harding, Emmanuel Krivine, Leonard Slatkin, Fabio Luisi, Cristian Macelaru, Antonio Pappano, Klaus Mäkelä...).
A renowned teacher, the demands and uniqueness of my style have been recognized in numerous masterclasses in France and abroad. A member of several juries, including the 2024 entrance exam for the CNSMD in Lyon, I also led an Academy for young professional clarinetists during the 2023-2024 season in partnership with the Buffet Crampon Showroom in Paris. Several of my students have successfully passed entrance exams for higher education institutions or orchestral competitions.
I play the Buffet Crampon “Légende” mopane clarinets.
I am also the author of the book "The Power of Minimalism", published by Éditions Eyrolles in 2024.
