About Me

I am passionate about music education and I believe that every student of every age has the ability to make music!

I am a patient teacher and enjoy the challenge of explaining some complicate concepts to students in a fun and engaging way. I always try to explain music to younger students using frames of reference that they are already familiar with.

In my career I have recorded in the studio and live with artists such as Anastasia, Ben E King, Rodriguez, Leon Ware, The Emotions, Deniece Williams, Alfie Boe and many more and it is a joy for me to pass my experience onto a new generation of students.

Education

I studied at at the Royal Academy of Music in London passing my degree with honours. I also obtained a teaching diploma, which I studied during my degree from the same institution.

Experience / Qualifications

BMus (Hons), Royal Academy of Music, London. LRAM, Royal Academy of Music London.

20 years teaching classical, bass, and electric guitar for ACM, LCCM and for the Herts Music Service in the UK.

Andrew has been an excellent teacher. He clearly not only holds a passion and skill for bass guitar, but also for teaching it. In the few lessons I had, I felt that he has put me on a good path of learning the value of understanding sheet music and correcting playing technique. I would highly recommend his lessons to those seeking to learn or improve their bass guitar playing.
A great 1st lesson with a very patient and gifted teacher. Highly recommended.
Logic Pro X is an incredibly powerful application that puts pro audio quality recordings into the hands of amateur and hobbyist musicians and producers. I have used Logic Pro in professional contexts, recording and producing numerous recordings and have years of experience using this piece of software. I will explain the user interface (which can be daunting to new users,) in Logic and show how users can get the most out of this awesome piece of software in a relatively short time. This class would be useful for people who wish to learn to create and record their own music, music teachers who would like to expand their knowledge of music technology and apply it to the classroom and any other people for whom recording audio is a necessary component of their work.

Gitarre Unterricht - Guitar - beginners and advanced
Nicolás ist ein argentinischer Musiker, der seit Ende 2024 in Süddeutschland lebt. Derzeit arbeitet er intensiv als Gitarrenlehrer an den städtischen Musikschulen Langenargen und Immenstadt. Zuvor verbrachte er 5 Jahre in der Schweiz, wo er Alte Musik und Gitarrendidaktik studierte. An der Zürcher Hochschule der Künste studierte er Vihuela, Laute und Basso continuo unter der Leitung von Maestro Eduardo Egüez. Seit 2022 lernt er auch Jazz bei amerikanischen Musikern wie Tim Lerch und Jonathan Kreisberg im Online-Unterricht. Zwischen 2000 und 2011 studierte er klassische Gitarre in Argentinien. Er ist Gitarrenlehrer und Absolvent von zwei renommierten Konservatorien in Buenos Aires. Er studierte zunächst bei Marcela Sfriso und absolvierte dann einen Aufbaustudiengang bei Eduardo Isaac. Einige Höhepunkte seiner Karriere sind: Im Jahr 2014 veröffentlichte er sein erstes Soloalbum „Morro de Saudade“. Er ist als Solist und mit Ensembles in wichtigen Theatern in Buenos Aires aufgetreten. Im Jahr 2009 gründete er die Camerata Argentina de Guitarras, deren Gitarrist und künstlerischer Leiter er bis 2019 war. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We can work in: -Repertoire and interpretation. -Preparation for concerts and admissions to Conservatories or Universities. -Also musical reading and renaissance tablature. -Also Jazz, bossa nova and tango. -Music theory My classes are for: -Amateurs and advanced students. -Kids, young people, and adults. I can teach in English, Spanish, and High German. More about my classes My guitar teaching model is based on books and the approach of guitarist and pedagogue Abel Carlevaro. In some way, it is about understanding and analyzing the nature of the movements we make to play the guitar in the simplest way possible. Just as to build a building you need a good foundation, to build a system of skills that allows us to be musicians, we need to know and practice in a conscious way all the movements we do. These movements are what we do when we play just one open string or what we need to do to play the most difficult piece of the repertoire. I pay special attention to achieve a good balance in teaching. I try to make the student develop at the same time the techniques to play the guitar and the artistic sensibility needed to make music. Because no matter the technical level of the student, my classes will always be oriented to making music and to be able to enjoy the processes that the musical activity involves. A simple guitar piece takes on another dimension if the basic principles of musical interpretation are applied. After getting to know and listening to how my students play I propose a short and medium term work plan. This plan is presented taking into account the objectives and wishes of each student. Exercises and pieces are included that will also allow to know the repertoire of the guitar. Therefore, each work plan includes specific and general contents.

Getting to Grips with Music Theory is simpler than you think!
The theory of everything tends to be really scary and music theory can be too. I am very keen to make music theory easy for everyone. For some people there is only one way to tackle the unmentionable but I believe there are many different approaches and one of them will click with you. It is simply finding out what is best for each person. Once we find the key we can unlock the problems that have puzzled you for ages. Music theory needs to be more than a requirement, it needs to be the way to really appreciate the music you are playing. Certain aspects can also lead to additional practical skills such as improvisation which can be very useful as well as very enjoyable. Whether you want to understand a particular aspect of music theory or If you struggle with music theory in general, then this is the class for you - why not give it a try?

In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.
