About Me

As a music educator, I hold myself to very high standards. My profound love and respect for music underpins my belief that all teachers have a significant responsibility to wholeheartedly assist, guide, and nurture every student who has entrusted them with their education. The most important thing is to do what is best for the welfare of each particular student.

When it comes to lessons, I believe that above all, learning and playing music should be fun and never reach a point when it is not. Music is not as hard as many books and teachers would have some of us believe. If things get too complicated, the student becomes confused or discouraged, or the lessons no longer feel enjoyable, then I am not doing my job. I create customized lesson plans for each student to make sure that this principle is never compromised.

As your music teacher, my goal is to work diligently to not only ensure your success, but hopefully, to ignite a sense of inspiration within you.

Songwriting Lessons (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced)

111.62 C$ /h

What makes a good song? This is exactly what we are going to find out. Exploring many of same techniques that are dealt with during our Composition Lessons, but in a broader more macro way. These lessons are geared to bring out your inner storyteller. By analyzing the great songs of the past and learning what makes them so effective, students will be able to internalize those tricks and techniques and add them to their own musician's toolbox. These tools will prove to be invaluable not only in crafting and shaping their musical stories, but also in overcoming writer's block. This program will ultimately help your songs reach their full potential and give you the ability to reach people on a deeper, more profound emotional level.

I am a graduate of the Royal College of Music in London, where I lived since 2009.

Individual lessons enables me to tailor and adapt my teaching to every pupil's needs; helping them to learn the repertoire or skills that each individual requires. I cover styles such as classical, contemporary, pop, jazz and film music.

I have prepared and entered pupils entry exams/auditions of conservatoires and music colleges of Spain and Europe as well as for composition competitions as I have won more then 30 awards myself and have been adjudicator of some composition competitions. I was also a professor in the Music faculty at Madrid's 'University Centre TAI', the Trinity Music Academy in London and The Conservatoire of Barcelona

I offer lessons in guitar/bass, piano/keyboard (classical/experimental/pop/jazz), composition/songwriting, production/recording (DAWs, mixing, editing etc). No matter what level we're on, as musicians and artists we're all part of a wonderful and strange ongoing human project, and I believe that it's my duty to share the knowledge and skills that I've accumulated throughout the course of my life and career.

Over the years, my work has branched out in many different stylistic directions but I am firmly rooted in avant-garde/classical music. I hold two degrees in composition: a Master of Music '11 from the Yale School of Music where I also taught undergraduate lessons in composition; and a BA in Music Composition from the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, Sweden ('09). I've written large scale works for orchestra, chamber pieces, solo music for a variety of instruments, works with multichannel electronics, and works for theater and dance. For those interested, my recorded work is easily accessible online on a variety of labels and my scores are available from Schott Music New York.

As a pianist, I began formal training at age 6 and worked through much of the classical repertoire before deciding to focus fulltime on composition. I am also an accomplished studio musician, improviser (jazz/free/experimental), and a member of several groups/ensembles.

A firm believer in the use of intuition as a primary tool in music making of all kinds, I would like our lessons to be shaped according to your needs and interests. No matter what level you are on, my goal will always be to offer you exactly what you need at each given step. I treat each student as a unique collaborative effort.

Apart from technical and aesthetic approaches, it is usually very difficult and takes a long time to find one's 'voice' as a performer, writer or producer; this is inevitable except in rare cases, and I will endeavour to teach you to trust in your own abilities, overcome insecurities and doubts, and connect your artistic practice with a more unified mindset that goes beyond imagined technical and stylistic limitations and aesthetic policing. The main point is to eradicate unnecessary obstacles to your creativity and learn to trust your intuition and choices.

Learning about violin playing from theory to performance, how to position right and left hand, how to check and improve intonation, how to practice various techniques and solve different kind of technical problems.
We can work on standard violin school textbooks, from basic exercises through scales, studies to simple pieces and then to more demanding violin pieces like concertos and sonatas.
If someone prefers to learn basic tunes such as popular melodies and violin cover songs, that’s possible as well.

I am now offering piano and violin lessons for beginners and intermediate students including kids, teens and adults. I use a student-centred pedagogy to help students reach their individual goals, whether they want to learn a classical repertoire or their favourite tunes from movies, musicals, etc. On top of that, I teach theory, improvisation, and various mindfulness and embodiment tools that cultivate technical and performance skills. I have a bachelors in psychology and violin performance from York University in Canada. In addition, I also have experience working with neurodiverse populations and low-vision populations-I am both:)

• Spanish Guitar Classes:

Over time I have learned to appreciate the Spanish guitar like a small orchestra.

- Lead guitar.
- Guitar arranged to accompany.

Basic / Intermediate / Advanced Level

All ages.

• Harmony:

The three fundamental pillars of music are: melody, harmony and rhythm.

I make this selection of harmony because this is the structure on which a melodic line relies to build a soundscape.

Basic / Intermediate / Advanced Level

All ages.

• Composition:

The musician must compose both when interpreting existing music and to create new one.

It is the form of expression that allows us to be sincere and show the landscapes that contain our soul and our heart.

Basic / Intermediate / Advanced Level

All ages.

• Arrangements:

Once we have all the material for a composition (our own or not); we must recreate the soundscape that we want to express by choosing the instrumentation, texture, and entrances and exits of each musical phrase.

Basic / Intermediate / Advanced Level

All ages.

• Assembly:

It is important when arranging a composition (our own or not) that we take into account teamwork, seeing it as a map of subjective possibilities that each instrumentalist contributes to the whole.
