About Me

Hi! I’m Caleb, I am from Sant Lucia and have lived in many places around the world but I am excited to now live in Barcelona!

I am a professional violist and dedicated music educator with a deep passion for helping musicians grow and succeed. My musical journey has taken me from my early beginnings in St. Lucia, to performing on some of the world’s most prestigious stages, including Carnegie Hall. I perform in many festivals abroad and with professional ensembles, I’ve toured internationally and collaborated with renowned artists, gaining invaluable experience that I bring to my teaching.

I tailor my lessons to meet each student’s unique goals:
• For beginners, I create a supportive and engaging environment to build a strong foundation and instill a love for music.
• For intermediate players, I focus on refining technique, enhancing musical expression, and exploring more challenging repertoire.
• For those aiming to enter or advance in competitions, I provide expert guidance on preparation, interpretation, and stage presence, drawing from my own experiences as a competition winner.

My approach combines technical rigor with creative exploration, aiming to inspire confidence and joy in every student, whether they’re playing for fun or pursuing a professional path.

Great to meet you all! My name is Tomas and I'm a passionate violin teacher with more than 20 years of teaching experience. I have a strong academic background in music and education. Here are some of the degrees I have obtained:

- Master Degree in Music Research from the Valencian International University

- Major in Violin Performance from the Conservatory of the Liceu Theater in Barcelona

- Teaching degree from the Barcelona Music School

- Professional degree from the Music School of Buenos Aires

- Specialist in Psychomotricity from University Miguel Cervantes

-Specialist in Early Cognitive Development from University Miguel Cervantes

Apart from teaching, I also run the world's largest Spanish-language violin blog called MyViolinBlog where I share my teaching and playing experiences. I'm also privileged to work as a conductor for the AMA Orchestra in Barcelona, where my students and I focus on musical group experience and technique.

I have teaching experience in different schools across Argentina, Spain, Poland, and Romania, I've developed a unique teaching approach that tailors each lesson to the student's goals, keeping them motivated and on track. I can also assist with preparation for school admissions exams such as ABRSM, Trinity College, and more.

As the head teacher at Esclat Barcelona Music School and Viaró Global School, I'm currently conducting research in the biomechanics of violin playing, and I'm set to publish four books on this subject this year!

Each class with me is customized to meet the student's needs, covering musical, theoretical, and postural concepts to ensure optimal comfort while playing. I love to explain complex concepts in simple terms and inspire my students to continue learning and exploring their musical abilities.

If you're interested in booking a trial lesson with me, let's discuss your goals and how I can help you to reach them!

Playing a musical instrument is quite a challenge for a person. The violin is a very beautiful instrument and, at the same time, difficult to learn.

I am a student whose passion is the violin, I offer private lessons and I move to the house myself, so there is no excuse for not wanting to learn!

Since the beginning of my artistic violin studies at the Higher Conservatory of Music in Würzburg, Germany, I discovered teaching as my passion and worked as a violin teacher teaching children, teenagers and adults of all levels, both beginners and advanced.
Violin classes and masterclasses with various teachers and professors have given me a lot of experience in terms of different techniques and ways of working.

The most important thing for me is to convey the joy of making music through violin performance, to encourage my students to overcome their limitations, as well as to teach them a technique that is as natural as possible.

Step by step you will learn to listen
finely and attentively, perceive your body awareness, develop a beautiful sound, and practice independently.

I speak English, German, Russian and I try to improve my Spanish every day :)

Violinist with the Orchestra of the Gran Teatre del Liceu and the Prague Philharmonic, I am a young musician with a master's degree from the Royal College of Music in London.

Whether you start playing from scratch, or if you are thinking of doing competitions or admission tests, I will help you achieve your goals. I have been giving private lessons to all kinds of ages and levels for more than three years, combining it with my own career as a solo, chamber and orchestral musician.
My goal is to pass on all the information my teachers have given me and boost your skills!

WHAT?
The classes will be between 45 and 60 minutes depending on your age, level and availability. We will focus on understanding the technique behind the instrument and from there exploiting its artistic potential to the maximum, always from a didactic point of view, enjoying and free of frustrations.
And to catch up on goals and way of working, the first class will be FREE!
If you prefer, we can also give the classes in English or French to improve those languages.

WHERE?
I can move throughout the city of Barcelona. If you prefer, the class can also be online, although I personally always recommend that it be in person.

WHEN?
Right now! Start being the violinist you want to be.

See you soon!
yes :)

I am a professional violinist, with more than a decade of experience playing with international & national orchestras, touring Europe and Asia. I am also a violin teacher, with more than a decade, sharing my love for music and the violin, giving classes both at the conservatory and to individuals.

If you want to start this wonderful instrument, regardless of age, experience, background, go ahead! Or if you want to enjoy playing music and learning; or go deeper into the instrument and prepare tests, go ahead!

Whatever the reason, I invite you to continue, and what better way than to take action and watch the magic happen!!

The violin is an instrument that requires hours of dedication and esteem. I will learn to play it to help us develop various abilities. For example, increase our musical hearing, coordination, reasoning, sensitivity...
More and more, fer-lo sonar can be very gratifying and exciting.

Welcome! I'm Paula, and this course is designed for anyone who wants to get started in the world of music, either by learning the basics of musical language or by starting to play the violin. As a professional violinist with a professional degree and extensive experience performing at private events, I have designed this course to convey my knowledge in a clear, practical and exciting way.

The course is suitable for those with no prior knowledge as well as those who are already familiar with some aspects of music. Students can choose to focus on musical language, on learning to play the violin, or even combine both.

In a comfortable and flexible environment, you will have a room at the Poblenou Campus in Barcelona, where you will have access to quality resources and schedules tailored to your needs. My goal is to guide you every step of your musical journey, helping you develop your skills and enjoy the learning process.

Learning!
- The fundamentals of musical language: reading sheet music, rhythm, bars and more.
- Basic techniques for playing the violin: posture, tuning, bow and first melodies.
- Development of musicality and artistic sensitivity.
- Practical methods to advance quickly and enjoy learning.

Violin and Music Lessons with Mateusz
I offer individual violin and music lessons for children, teenagers, and adults — from beginners to advanced levels.

My teaching approach combines classical instrumental technique with a modern understanding of what it means to be a musician today. In each lesson, we work not only on playing the violin, but also on:

understanding the fundamentals of music theory and harmony,

learning how to record music using accessible technologies (home studio, apps, microphones),

developing a strong sense of artistic identity and stage presence.

These sessions are designed as creative and engaging encounters, where students develop both their musical skills and artistic imagination. I teach the way I would want to be taught — with passion, openness, and respect for each individual’s unique voice.
