The lessons are aimed at anyone, of any level and age group, who wants to deepen her/his musical, technical and expressive knowledge or improve style and language on a specific musical genre.

I have a multi-genre and personalized approach: let's find together the way to develop your musical personality.

After more than one decade of professional experience both in playing and in teaching, I have developed a method that can be very useful not only for beginners, but also for classically trained musicians who want to approach other kinds of music.

Every musician has his own background and a potential to be unlocked, so the lessons will be tailored to each student's needs.

 

 

 

My way of teaching is based on musicality: we start from listening to successful musical examples and from there we’ll disclose the fundamental concepts: rhythm, melody and harmony.  The concepts of music theory and functional harmony are addressed in a simple way, with practical examples taken from the various genres of pop, blues, rock, soul, world and electronic music, and through educational materials that remain available in the chat, as well as summaries, and tutorials.

In addition, the entire recordings of the lessons will be available and downloadable.

The lessons generally last from 30 minutes to one hour and include:

.technique and practice of a language or musical genre on the instrument

.theory / harmony and listening.

.ear training

.arrangement and style

.repertoire
