Guitar Classes (classical with nylon strings ; acoustic with steel strings ; and/or electric) in Vienna or online in various languages (ENG/GER/FRA/ESP)

Pedagogue with more than 10 years of experience in scholar and extracurricular contexts is offering his expertise as a guitar teacher for new interested students of all ages. Classes are held in person in Vienna's 3rd district, and can be of course prolonged into the school year.

My class is based on various but well structured classical methods, however Pop and modern music remains an important aspect of the learning process, so the various wishes and aspects of guitar playing can be achieved by beginners and advanced students. A vast well catered repertoire and personalized arrangements will be provided for each student individually.

Many groups projects with guitars as well as other music instruments were very successfully realized over the years, and many of my students have also succeeded in competitions and important (solo) performances.
Prep classes for competitions as well as entrance exams at music institutions are also very possible!

Every year there are two student concerts in a beautiful concert hall in the 3rd district (December and June)
Extra information
on the first class there are many instruments available to try out, however students have to procure their own instrument and come to class with it afterwards. Of course I will help for deciding the size, price and type of instruments !

About Me
I come from a family of musicians and studied both concert and instrumental pedagogy for classical guitar at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna. I majored in pop guitar and music theory in my pedagogical studies, and it gave me a whole new perspective in class!

I am always happy to convey this special path away from the older classical path to the modern one: my lessons combine some of the cores of methods and pieces that have been kept for decades with contemporary knowledge of guitar playing. This allows an ergonomic and great game for everyone!

Music from films, video games or animation films has long been a hobby of mine, so I occasionally arrange pieces from this area so that they can be played on guitar (and with another instrument?).

One of the greatest experiences as a teacher is when students suddenly find their guitar playing to be the best solution for themselves to overcome all difficulties, and progress is rapid and uphill. I wish that for all my students!

Hello!

I am Joan, a professional classical guitarist newly based in Vienna. I am from Barcelona, obtained a First Class Bachelor's degree in Music and a Master's degree in Performance at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London, and I have now landed in Vienna, where I do a Postgraduate Certificate at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (mdw) with Prof. Alvaro Pierri. I am also an active performer, with more than 30 concerts a year across Europe, the USA and the UK.

Besides performing, I have been teaching for more than 10 years now. Last year as a Junior Fellow at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama, but also privately, in music schools, conservatoires, primary and secondary schools and summer camps. Mainly 1 to 1 but very often ensembles, chamber music or orchestras.

I have always considered guiding people into learning music a central part of my passion and profession, and always put special attention to Pedagogy. I was lucky to have lessons with some of the world's best professionals like A. Pierri, D. Russell, R. Dyens, M. Barrueco, L. Brouwer, A. Vidovic...

I am now looking forward to connecting with new students here in Vienna or online!

I always try to explore what is the best way for each particular student to develop, so our lessons could take many different approaches. I am happy to hear what you expect from the lessons, adapt to it, and at the same time offer my professional guidance. One of my principles is to be effective in all possible ways when playing.

Above all, I will make sure you learn!

Whether you are already playing masterpieces and are interested in new approaches, have been playing for some time, or still haven't started playing, I'd be glad to help you.
