I’m Matyas Hofecker, a professional bass player and music educator based in Richmond. I developed a passion for music at a very young age, playing the trumpet at the age four. In elementary school, I became familiar with jazz and bass guitar then I switched to double bass in my teenage years and started playing music professionally. I studied at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest and received my Master’s Degree with honours from the Music and Arts University of Vienna. Over the past few years, I have become a permanent member of the European and UK music scene and appeared at various venues and famous stages like Ronnie Scott’s, 606 or PizzaExpress.For me, the most important is to help my students reach their goals, supporting them in any kind of situation.

Our main themes:
- technique and overview of the bass (where?)
- general music theory, ear training (why?)
- creative improvisation and composition (what?)
- rhythm, tempo, phrasing and feeling (how?)
For adults and teenagers, lessons last 1 hour. For all levels from absolute beginner to conservatory level.

My lessons are tailored to each student's skill level and goals, whether you're a beginner learning the basics or an experienced player looking to refine your skills. We’ll cover everything from essential techniques like strumming and fingerpicking to advanced topics such as soloing, music theory, and improvisation.

About me
I’m a passionate musician with over 20 years of experience playing acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, and 15 years of teaching others to share my love for music. Growing up, I spent 8 years playing in a church band before heading to university. Although I went on to study engineering and then human resources, I continued teaching music — whether online or face-to-face.
Have you ever listened to a song and wished you could just pick up a guitar and play along without checking the chords? My lessons will give you the tools to play by ear, enabling you to join in effortlessly and confidently without relying on chord charts. Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or refining your technique, I offer a flexible and personalised approach to help you achieve your musical goals.

Eyal
Guitar, Bass Guitar, Music Production, Song Writing, and Music TheoryEyal has taught hundreds of students over the past 15 years, both guitar and piano next to music theory and composition. Besides his formal music education (a bachelor's in composition, a teaching degree from the music academy in Jerusalem, and a master's in composition from Codarts, Rotterdam), Eyal has acquired experience in a wide range of various musical styles, including rock, blues, jazz, classical music, electronic music and contemporary music, on which he bases his rich approach, which can be adjusted to every student separately.
Solos, chords, improvisations, heavy distortion or acoustic guitar, playing in a party or jumping on stages, reading notes or playing by ear. Maybe you know exactly what you want, and maybe you are not sure. In Eyal's view, the job of the teacher is helping you finding that out, and guiding you through your personal process.
Johann Sebastian Bach or John Lennon? Sergei Rachmaninoff or Freddie Mercury? Regina Spektor? Nina Simone? Maybe Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart? Complex harmonies or simple melodies? Classical pieces or modern tunes? The only right answer is what you find interesting.
