Violin class, Paris 16th arrondissement – Hildegarde, winner of the Long-Thibaud Competition

From 130 C$ /h

Winner of the 2014 Long-Thibaud-Crespin International Competition and ADAMI Classical Revelation, I have had the honor of performing at the Victoires de la Musique Classique and of pursuing a career as a soloist and orchestral musician in France and internationally.
My career has led me to hold several prominent positions: solo violin of the Nice Opera from 2020 to 2022, concertmaster of the Karlsruhe Opera in 2022, then concertmaster of the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern from 2023 to 2025. Alongside my artistic activity, I am regularly invited as a jury member in international competitions.
My teaching is suitable for both children and adults, whether they wish to discover the violin, improve their technique, prepare for an exam, or refine their performance. For more advanced students, I offer specific support in preparing for competitions, conservatory entrance exams, and orchestra auditions, sharing the working methods that have allowed me to reach the highest level.
One or two auditions will be organized during the year to allow everyone to set a goal and be fully committed.
The classes take place in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, near the Porte d'Auteuil metro station.

About Me

An international solo violinist, I entered the prestigious Paris Conservatory at the age of 13. Winner of the 2014 Long-Thibaud-Crespin International Competition and ADAMI Classical Revelation Award, I had the honor of performing at the Victoires de la Musique Classique awards.

My career has led me to hold several prominent positions: solo violin of the Nice Opera from 2020 to 2022, concertmaster of the Karlsruhe Opera in 2022, then concertmaster of the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern from 2023 to 2025. Today, I pursue a career as a freelance violinist and perform regularly with orchestras and ensembles in Europe and Asia.

Alongside my artistic work, I am regularly invited to serve as a jury member in international classical music competitions. I am also the production manager for the association Les Musicales du Centre, which works to promote classical music through the organization of competitions, academies, and concerts.

Passionate about teaching, I have devoted a large part of my time to it for 10 years with varied experiences in France and Argentina.

Whatever the age of the student, beginner level or confirmed, I offer private lessons of violin and viola.

No knowledge or musical notion is necessary beforehand, the theoretical achievements are made as and when the discovery of the instrument.

Above all i encourage my students to have fun with music! Course locations: Paris 13th and neighbouring arrondissements. Languages: French, English. I have been working as a Professional for 25 years, I have toured all over the world. I am also a composer with six albums under my name.

In this violin course you will learn a foundation in learning one of the most rewarding instruments in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Grip the bow, hold the violin, have the perfect hand position and enjoy playing the strings while learning how to read the notes, the violin rhythm and technique.

Students will generally learn better if they feel a connection developing with their teacher, whether that’s through humour, showing care about their development, or making sure teacher devote time equally to all students when in a group.

You will not regret. 😊

My goal is to make people of all ages and levels learn not only playing an instrument but how can music help them in their everyday life.
I am an Albanian violinist, with a Bachelor degree in Classical Music (Violin) and Musicologie in Sorbonne University.
Over the years, my experiences with different youth and professional orchestras all around Europe have made me understand that music is important not only for professional musicians but also for everyone.
I can teach in English or French and of course in my mother tongue Albanian.

Hello,

I like to transmit and exchange with my students.
Seeing them understand and progressing is essential and very rewarding for me.

My lessons are based on an academic method focused on learning music theory and instrumental practice.
I bring a specific method adapted to the profiles of my students (age, availability, tastes, motivation, "anti-music theory").
I try to make my students independent, help them develop their listening skills, their sense of rhythm and transmit to them an efficient working method.

All styles, all levels: pop, rock, funk, jazz, blues, soul, reggae, latin

Having graduated with a master's degree in musicology, I am currently pursuing my higher education at the conservatory in the scholarly disciplines of composition, analysis, writing, musical arrangement, and Jazz.
I have been playing guitar for many, many years now, as well as piano and flute.

I have been teaching guitar, piano, flute and musical education for several years now to children, teenagers and adults.
I also have a very good level in music theory, writing (jazz and classical), harmony as well as musical composition.
My classes are based on listening as well as the development of the musical ear and musical creativity. I try to transmit my passion for music by making my students discover very varied horizons, from jazz to classical music, including current music and so-called traditional music.
I also seek to develop autonomy in my students, an essential quality in order to flourish both musically and in everyday life. This is why I insist on the knowledge of the instrument and the development of creativity through the teaching of applied music theory and the development of the ear.

My course is aimed at both beginners and people of an intermediate or advanced level who would like to improve their skills.
If you are looking for a teacher who is both pedagogical and attentive, do not hesitate to contact me.

Pianist for over 12 years, I help beginner and intermediate students to progress on the piano and enjoy playing their favorite pieces.

. Music styles:

- Pop/contemporary music (Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Imagine Dragons, Yiruma, Yann Tiersen, Ludovico Einaudi, etc.)
- Classical music (Bach, Chopin, Beethoven, etc.)
- Film music (La La Land, Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, etc.)
- French pop music (Francis Cabrel, Jean-Jacque Goldman, etc.)

. My teaching method:

- Beginner level: my work is based on the book "J'apprends le piano tout simplement" by Christophe Astié, a simple and progressive method for learning the basics of piano (reading sheet music, music theory, playing with two hands, chords, etc.). Once some basic skills have been acquired, we can begin to learn the pieces you wish for.

- Intermediate level: Instruction is personalized based on the pieces you wish to learn. I will guide you through reading sheet music, interpreting the piece, and improving your technique, while providing you with tailored theoretical knowledge. The goal is to enable you to play your favorite pieces with fluidity and confidence.

. Location: At home (Antony and surrounding areas - Nanterre and surrounding areas)

. Limited availability:
I still have a few slots available for Saturday afternoons and Sundays.

To book lessons, please contact me by message on this platform.
See you soon at the piano!

- My students' opinions - (translated in English)

"My daughter Louane (10 years old) has been taking piano lessons with Daniel for 8 months now, and the progress she's made is incredible. She really enjoys playing, and it shows in her motivation and consistency. What we particularly appreciate is Daniel's gentleness and kindness, as well as his teaching style, which is very child-friendly.
Louane can choose the pieces she likes, which makes her even more involved, and music theory is naturally integrated into the learning process. It's an approach that's both fun and effective. Thank you for your patience and your infectious passion!" - Nathalie C.

"Excellent teacher, excellent teaching style! My son has progressed much more this year than in previous years. Daniel is patient and adapts to his student's needs. I recommend him 100%." - François M.

"After playing the piano for 4 years and then stopping for 21, I decided to take piano lessons with Daniel since August 2024. I quickly noticed progress and I recommend him for his professionalism, kindness, and friendliness.
I also appreciate being able to choose the pieces I want to learn." - Marjolaine.

The most important thing for me is that the student enjoys playing. That's why he is free to learn the pieces he wants as long as they are accessible to his level. The student progresses much more quickly when he plays pieces that he likes, and that's what I prioritize above all: the pleasure of playing and learning.
Of course, I will also suggest pieces adapted to his progress.

The lessons may be supplemented by a little music theory, especially for beginners (during the lesson time), Analysis or Writing. These disciplines nourish the student's culture and will improve their creativity and interpretations of pieces.

The courses can be given in French, but also in English or Italian if you wish.

I can travel to Paris or Aubervilliers.

I offer music lessons for children focused on four main areas: music theory, singing, cello, and rhythm. My approach is playful, caring, and adapted to each child's age and pace.

Through music theory, I help children develop their musical ear, read and understand sheet music in a lively and interactive way. In singing, we explore the voice with gentleness and freedom, working on breathing, expression, and the joy of singing together. Cello lessons are designed to introduce young children to the technique of the instrument, while maintaining an element of play and sensory discovery. Finally, rhythm workshops allow children to move, strike, feel the tempo, and play with rhythm through their body and percussion.

Above all, I seek to transmit a love of music and to offer a space for listening, expression and trust.
Each lesson is a little musical journey, where the child learns while having fun.

Does your child love to sing and want to develop their voice, gain confidence or improve their technique? Do you want to start singing yourself or improve your skills?

I offer private singing and vocal technique lessons, fully personalized according to the level and objectives of each student, whether beginner, amateur or already experienced.

Each course is structured in three parts:

1. Physical and vocal warm-up
Body relaxation, diaphragm placement, breathing exercises, posture and grounding, to prepare the voice and avoid any tension.

2. Vocal Technique
Exercises adapted to the student's level: breath control, voice placement, accuracy, articulation, resonance, power without straining.

3. Application to a piece
Putting the technique into practice on a song chosen by the student (or suggested) to work on interpretation and enjoy singing.

The styles are open: pop, variety, French chanson, lyrical... according to desires.

In addition, I offer the basics of music theory and piano for students who wish to learn to read sheet music or accompany themselves while singing.
