I am a concert pianist, composer, and writer! I have 30 years of teaching experience with all levels in different countries and 40 years of stage experience. I trained at the Gnessin Academy in Moscow in 2004.
I have been living and working in France since 2010.
More about me on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/@VeronikaKuzminaRaibaut

Whether you are an experienced pianist or a beginner, you have already understood that music is not just about notes, but what lies behind them.

Do you want your playing to be more expressive, with a more human intonation? Do you wish to be able to breathe with your body during your performance? To play with all parts of your arm for a richer palette of colors and touches?

Do you need to play virtuoso passages without fatigue or wrong notes? To perform on stage from memory or with scores without fear?
Would you like to know how to use the pedal according to the style and period of the composer and understand his message?
If so, then I'll be waiting for you!
Online or at my home in Rambouillet, I give piano lessons in French, English and Russian.
See you soon !

° CRR graduate professor, with 15 years of experience,

PEDAGOGY:

I give piano lessons for all ages, children and adults, beginners and experienced, adapted to the rhythm and musical tastes of each.

== For beginners, learning is done in two main points:

1- A progressive initiation into reading notes by immediately playing the piano.

2 - the discovery of pieces without scores: the great classics, the repertoire, popular songs, inventions and songs. My students realize that they can have fun and play the full extent of the piano, from the first lessons.

Ex: "the Letter to Elise", Titanic "," The Snow Queen "," Let it be "," Over there "," If it was enough to love ", from film music to the hits of classical music.

== For the confirmed I travel with my students the waltzes of Chopin, the Intermezzo of Brahms, the sonatas of Mozart, all the great classics, even those of jazz!

WEBCAM: I have developed a method adapted to this format of the course.

° Classical scores are suitable for distance learning for advanced levels.
° For beginners and intermediate levels the scores are arranged by me so that my students assemble the piece step by step.
° Thanks to these arranged scores, my students play the easy version, depending on their level, and gradually move towards the original, more difficult score.


TRAINING:
I have a classical professional training
-CRR in classical piano
- CRR in musical writing; in orchestration;
- initiation into conducting
- jazz training (at the CRR with Claude Terranova)

TEACHING:

- Professor at the conservatory of Celle-Saint-Cloud
- Lyrical music composer and piano
- 1st CD released in 2019: "Sylves", French melody, praised on Resmusica magazine.


FREQUENT CASE:

Resumption of the hands of lost students, not knowing how to play, for example, one or two pieces after 2 years of piano, which I see commonly and at all school returns.

Organization of small student concerts once or twice a year.


Payment by service employment check possible.

My educational approach is based on three pillars:
- instrumental practice (80% of the time),
- practice of music theory adapted to the harmonica (10% of the time),
- and knowledge of Harmony (10% of the time),
The student will use these three axes thanks to the musical supports offered.
A space will be dedicated to you for the storage of these media.


My concert experience (50 per year) represents a major asset in supervising students.
This asset is complemented by my extra-musical experience, since I managed a computer training center and provided training.
In this context, I was trained in interpersonal communication (Transactional Analysis and NLP)


My instrumental pedagogy is not based, as tradition dictates, on teaching in the same way as I was taught.
When you start learning a musical instrument, you rarely think about a career as a musician.
Therefore, my primary goal is not to train career musicians, but rather to educate musically through sustained learning of the instrument.
It is essential to remember that learning a musical instrument aims first and foremost to develop a taste for music and to know how to communicate that music speaks to the life of feeling.


The Harmonica is essentially an instrument dedicated to improvisation
My program addresses issues related to improvisation from the very beginning of learning.
To arrive at an understanding of what is at stake in the practice of improvisation in all its complexity, it is necessary to have a global approach (music theory and harmony).

Improvisation allows you to approach the interpretation of the theme of a piece.
Playing on a playback is therefore essential.
