    About Me

    "EVERTON FIRMEZA is a bassist and composer who has always had experimentalism as his trademark."

    A brazilian that looks to the world. This is how EVERTON FIRMEZA sees himself and is seen. In his 13 years of career the 27-year-old musician born and raised in São Paulo has already an experience and artistic maturity as like lot of plus aged musicians.
    FIRMEZA has begun his music studies at age 7, in the school where he studied. In the recorder classes he was always one of the best students. Many years later he discovered he had already absolute pitch at the time.
    At age 14 he started his studies in the bass guitar. He began playing Rock and the FM Popular Repertoire at bars, parties and public events. His tecnical and musical development brought an interest for Classic Rock, Jazz, Brazilian Music, and soon after that for Classical and Experimental Music.
    At age 18 FIRMEZA moved to Belo Horizonte (Minas Gerais) to do the Major Degree in Composition at Escola de Música da UFMG (Federal University of Minas Gerais School of Music). What looked like a very strict couse at the time revealed itself exactly the opposite, so FIRMEZA had the opportunity to develop many projects in a lot of different styles and concepts: he played in Jazz, Brazilian Music, Pop, Choro and Contemporary Classical Music ensembles, he worked as sound technician, wrote arrangements for different formations, composed eletroacoustic and electronic music, studied and acted in theatre and clown plays, recorded soundtracks for theatre and animation, researched sound-image relationships and organized music festivals just to tell some of them.
    After graduating FIRMEZA decided to especialize himself as Bassist and Composer and to embrace the Brazilian Music, the Jazz and the Experimental Music as his main universes. Since 2012 Everton could participate of D E R I V A SONS experimental group, to act as bassist and music producer of singer and composer Nego Henrique and to deepen his studies in Jazz and Brazilian Popular Music at the well known Souza Lima Consevatory, in Sao Paulo.
    EVERTON FIRMEZA has already presented in many cities in Brazil and also in Argentina, in Belgium and Cuba. If in Brazil or outside, his concerts always praise his country and the Musical, Artistic and Cultural richness, as a way to give great value to its traditions and to consolidate its reputation as a important cultural reference in the contemporary scenario.

    Harmony and Classical Writing
    This applied music theory course is for any passionate musician, regardless of level. It aims to broaden his musical knowledge and abilities by understanding music as a whole. The goal is to be able to decode and understand how a music (not only of classical style, but also pop, jazz, rock, electro, ...) was composed, and to be able to use interesting harmonies oneself. and solid in a personal composition / production. It is made up of two main topics: * Harmony (building chords, understanding chord diagrams, learning to Harmonize a given melody, the possibility or not of using these Harmonies in a given style, etc.). But also understand the key, how to build a scale, how to navigate between different keys, how to transform a classic chord suite into another style? Harmony is a course open to all and all levels, no prerequisites to have. Any passionate musician will find interest in it, that's guaranteed. * Writing is a much more targeted course, which is already an introduction to classical composition. In this branch, we will develop the rules of classical writing (parallel fifths and octaves, false relations etc, ...) within the framework of an exercise based on a given melody or bass (in the first case it will be necessary to invent harmonization and compose a bass, in the second, it will be necessary to invent the harmonization and the melody). This course can also be used by academy or conservatory students who wish to prepare for the writing exam, or simply to deepen their knowledge.

    Private lesson in electric bass, all styles of music
    FRENCH: I have been in music since I was 5 years old, I decided to make it my job and so I studied at the Brussels Conservatory (Master level). I specialize in jazz but my favorite field remains Groove music. I also went through a lot of styles (rock, funk, pop, reggae,...) during my years of learning the bass. To get an idea of my playing style, my main influence in Jazz bass is Dario Deidda. I'm very inspired by "underground" bands from Brussels like Stuff, ECHT, Tukan, Jean-Paul Groove, Ciao Kennedy,... Abroad I could mention Athletic Progression, KUF, Takuya Kuroda, Vels trio, Vulfpeck (and dozens of others!) Without forgetting the classics like Parliament, Earth Wind and fire, PUSH, Jamiroquai,... I don't have a particular method. Unless my student requests it, my lessons are done by feeling according to his desires and his objectives. We can very well just learn pieces and at the same time deepen the technique and the knowledge of the music if requested. The goal is to have fun. ENGLISH: I started music when I was 5 and later decided to make it my job. I studied in Brussel's jazz Conservatory (Master). I'm specialized in Jazz but my roots are in Groove music.
