Hello!
I teach private piano lessons to adults and children at all levels.
My methods of teaching varies on each individual.

I generally start to focus on music theory, techniques, repertoire and understanding music emotionally using dynamics, feeling, touch and hearing skills.
The emotional part of music is very prominent when I teach, it is very important for the student to enjoy what they're learning and to also have access to be able to express themselves through music.

Some students are better at learning by ear, improvising and composition, some other students are better with music theory and learning repertoire. Depending on the student, I usually work on their strengths to keep their interest and eventually move on to the more difficult aspects of music and learning how to play the piano!
Musicians health is also a part of my teaching methods.
It is very important to approach music with a relaxed attitude mentally and physically especially to prevent any future injuries!

If you have any further questions please let me know!
Hope to hear from you soon.

"Piano Strings" for Cover Artistry is a special course for complete beginners and advanced piano or keyboard players, who wants to explore, play and create a unique arrangement of their favourite song.
Genres: Classical music, Pop, World music.
The course is progressively made of ear training, piano playing, basics of music theory, harmony, arranging, singing and performing as a summary of learned skills.
Coaching is taking place on acoustic piano, E-piano as well as keyboard.
Lessons are taking place per Zoom or Skype for now.

Hello and welcome to my music studio! It is absolutely fabulous that you are interested in music, and I hope you have lots and lots of fun with it! However, diving into the wonders of the piano/keyboard can be a bit overwhelming... and that is where I come in!
This course is for anyone from complete beginners to advanced students, from lessons that focus completely on classical music to lessons that include or focus on the basics of jazz/pop. If you like to sing, we can also work on the basics of jazz/pop vocal, so you can learn to accompany yourself at the piano.
In our lessons, technique will be an inherent part of the training, as well as analysis, basic music theory, and efficient ways of practicing music. If that all sounds good to you, then please reach out to me and we can start ASAP!
Lessons can be in English or Dutch.

So who am I?
In a nutshell, I am a professional pianist, vocalist, lyricist and blogger. Since 2014, I have taught in various music schools, teaching piano, ensemble, jazz vocal, and solfege.
On a more elaborate note, I obtained my Master of Arts in classical piano, summa cum laude, at the Royal Conservatory of Ghent (KASK) in 2017, and studied as a Fulbrighter at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington USA during the 2019-2020 academic year.
Every day, I strive to become a better musician and person, and I aim to transfer that passion to my students.

My name is Felix, I am a student at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, and I come from a family of music teachers. I am a creative musician and composer and would like to bring you closer to the joy of making music. Lessons are adapted to the student's wishes and abilities, with creativity and fun always being the focus.

-Cello lessons: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced

-Piano lessons: beginners, intermediate

Composition is hard to define and is by no means limited to one particular style or genre. Our meetings would provide a framework and the context for you to delve deeper into your chosen ideas and creations.

As well as composition, I am able to assist you with music theory, ear training, piano and general musicianship. I plan my lessons individually and orientate myself towards your goals. Whether you want to create a Bach fugue or a new single for your EDM album, I would be there to support your stylistic decisions.

I am an Italian pianist, I graduated at F. Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest. I offer piano lessons to students of all levels. The lessons will be held in English, French or Italian (basic German). I will support beginners and advanced students with basic music theory knowledge and technical principles of piano playing. I also prepare students for examinations, auditions, competitions, working on piano technique and musical aspects.

Learn the guitar in a relaxed and fun environment! I aim to make every lesson an adventure, with the focus being on enjoyment and exploration, rather than urgency. Music is about personal expression and connection, and that is exactly what these lessons will be about.

If you want to practice English, I am happy to run classes in my native language, but can also teach in German if preferred.

One of the best parts of music is learning to write your own! I can work with you to write and compose a song of your own. There's nothing quite like creating your own songs, and I can guide you along this journey, give you the tools to get started, or help you fine-tune one already in the works.

HI!

My name is Lasha, I am 25 years old and I am currently studying at MDW here in Vienna. And I would love to be of help in your journey to hone your skills or even begin playing the piano!

Originally from Georgia, I have finished my Bachelor's degree at the Tbilisi State Conservatoire and after completing exchange semesters in Vienna and England, have decided to continue with my studies here. During my studies I have had the opportunity to work with wonderful musicians and top pedagogues from around the world and would love to share my knowledge and experience.

Hello :)
For me, music theory starts with feeling and experiencing and then moves on to understanding. Listening, analyzing, singing along and writing it down go hand in hand.
We can tailor the lessons to your existing skills and your desired goals (e.g. personal interest, preparation for entrance exams, music school...).
No previous experience is necessary.

"When you play the piano, it's music theory live" - a friend's description of me.
My name is Leo, I am 28 years old and for as long as I can remember I have lived with and for music. My favourite instruments are drums/percussion, piano and guitar. I am currently studying music therapy, before that I trained as an ensemble leader in the amateur sector. Working with people is very important to me and I would like to pass on the love and ease with which I move through the harmonic, rhythmic and melodic worlds.

I offer piano lessons for adults and children, tailored to your goals and preferences. Each lesson lasts 45 minutes. Lessons are conducted in English, German and Russian. I teach piano at home in Vienna’s 3rd district and online on a beautiful Yamaha piano.

I have a full class of 13 students. Each semester, I organize a recital. If they wish, even my online students can take part through a live stream :)

I am an award-winning pianist in international competitions, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory named after P.I. Tchaikovsky (BA), and currently a student at the Anton Bruckner University in Austria (MA).

I have developed my own teaching methodology, which varies depending on the student's age, skill level, and preferences. With extensive teaching experience for both adults and children, I have completed pedagogical practice and a piano teaching methodology course at the Moscow Conservatory. I teach beginners from scratch, prepare school students for exams, competitions, concerts, and entrance exams. Additionally, I teach solfeggio, music theory, ear training, rhythm development, hand positioning, and stage performance skills. I work on both classical repertoire and any pieces the student desires. I create custom arrangements for my students, including simplified versions of difficult pieces.

My online setup makes the lessons feel just like in-person: I use a tripod to demonstrate my hands and provide an online screen display for sheet music. After each lesson, I send video tutorials for clear, visual examples.

I offer both practical and theoretical lessons on the subject of composing electronic music, tailored to the individual needs and interests of the student.

Areas of instruction include:
1) Introduction to working with sound (Ableton Live)
2) Discuss / further develop compositional approaches
3) Finding your own artistic language
4) Sound engineering basics
5) Analysis of musical references, inspirations that the student brings with him/her
6) Integration of your own instrument into electronic music (e.g. piano, guitar, etc.)
7) Sound recording (miking the environment)
8) Modular synthesizer (The synthesizer can be used in lessons in my studio, for advanced students)

To me:
Peter (1994, Upper Austria); composer of electronic and contemporary music, sound artist and guitarist.
Completed training at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna and the Anton Bruckner Private University Linz (Master of Arts).

Hello! I am offering informal, beginner's piano lessons in English for those who have little to no experience. I have studied music in the UK, completing Grade 8 (ABRSM) and A level music. I offer a patient and open minded approach to learning music and believe strongly that practice is something that should be enjoyed, not dreaded!

I look forward to meeting you :)

Hello! My name is Djevrije Tule and I am a music student at the MUK – Music and Arts Private University of the City of Vienna.
I have been playing piano since I was six years old and have participated in numerous concerts and masterclasses in Germany (Cologne, Düren), Slovenia, Croatia, North Macedonia and Vienna.

I am a multiple prize winner at national and international piano competitions – including first prizes and special prizes at the EPTA competition in Albania, Ars Kosova and Polihymnia in North Macedonia.
In 2024 I was selected as a soloist to perform Dmitri Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Macedonian Philharmonic Orchestra – an unforgettable musical experience.

🎹 Piano Lessons 🎶

Discover the beauty of music through the piano!
In this class, we'll explore everything from the basics of technique and reading music to mastering expressive performance and musical interpretation, or whatever suits your heart.

Whether you're a beginner taking your first steps, an intermediate player improving your skills, each lesson will be tailored to your level and personal goals.

We'll work on:
✨ Developing a natural piano technique
✨ Understanding musical structure and harmony
✨ Building confidence and expression in your playing
✨ Learning pieces you'll love

Join me, and let's make music that speaks from the heart. 💫

My lessons are especially for you if you want to achieve freedom and ease at the piano.

As a composer, I develop my ideas through improvisation at the piano, which, trained through technique and knowledge, allows for a free discovery of one's own music.
So you not only learn to play your favorite songs, but also to understand them and to come up with similar ones yourself.

The lessons are completely flexible, and the focus is on fun and discovery. We can learn to play from sheet music or by ear. We can include harmony, rhythm, and ear training – whatever you prefer.

It is also possible to focus on only one of these areas if you want to prepare for an entrance exam or something similar [rhythm and ear training].

I offer individually tailored lessons in composition, free improvisation, and piano for students of all levels — from beginners to advanced musicians.

Composition
Lessons focus on developing a personal musical language through both creative work and analytical study. We analyze scores from various periods, including the 20th and 21st centuries. We explore contemporary compositional techniques, form, harmony, texture, and extended instrumental techniques (including their notation). Students are guided in building original works while strengthening their artistic identity.

Free Improvisation
This course combines practical exercises with the analysis of selected works and recordings in experimental and improvised music. The aim is to liberate musical expression while consciously shaping an individual musical language. The course is not dedicated to any single style or genre, but rather focuses on helping each participant discover and develop their own artistic voice and approach to music-making. It is suitable not only for beginners, but also for advanced musicians seeking to expand their vocabulary and deepen their artistic practice.
There is no restriction to a single instrument: participants are welcome to bring their own instrument or join without any instrument at all.
Lessons can take place both individually and in small groups.
This format is also highly suitable for children, as improvisation encourages imagination, confidence, and a playful exploration of sound.

Piano
Piano lessons integrate technique, sound awareness, and interpretative work. Repertoire may include classical, contemporary, or experimental music, depending on the student’s interests and goals.
We work either with a programme assigned by a university or institution, or develop an individual programme tailored to the student’s artistic interests, technical level, and personal objectives.
