    About Me

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    I am a musician by nature, have lived and worked on / off in the UK for 45 years and have over 35 years of experience teaching music, languages and naturopathy. I studied piano and conducting, as a minor subject, recorder and other keyboard instruments, as well as musicology.
    My special interest (my specialty) is the harmonium and the American Pump Organ. I also restore these instruments and use them to perform regularly here in Wales.
    a teaching method depends on the level of knowledge and expectations of my pupils and students.
    At the moment my focus is on adults who want to use the current situation to improve their knowledge online. I am also happy to take older children and young people from about 12 years.

    Education

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    Abitur 1983, 1985-1990 HfM Detmold, 1991 founding of our own publishing house, afterwards further education in naturopathy in Switzerland. Regular concert appearances since the late 1970s, as a soloist or as an accompanist.

    Experience / Qualifications

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    I passed my O-Levels in London in 1979, then graduated from high school in 1983 with advanced courses in German and English, then studied music at the HfM Detmold. Since my school days I have performed regularly, been successful in competitions and have taught. I also sent my own students to competitions and prepared many of them for the entrance exams to various universities. I am married to a British musician (French horn, ocarina, flute, all flutes and composition). After living in London in the 1990s, we moved to Wales in 2008. We live with our two children in one of the most beautiful parts of Wales, the "Valleys". Here we work out our own concert programs, research and publish our own grades and teach. My "hobby" is Irish and Celtic music, with which I also make buske = street music. We are happy about contacts to Germany and think that online teaching has a great future.
    Tin Whistle .... the Irish / Celtic instrument par excellence. The instrument with the special tone. I offer a solid introduction for beginners, reveal "tricks of the trade", and explain the fundamental differences to how to play the flute. The Irish whistle is certainly not the cheap "fun instrument" that it is often viewed as. Inexpensive yes, but by no means cheap.
    We offer block flute lessons for adults and children. The block flute is not only the traditional entry-level instrument, but a full member of the woodwind instrument family. Composers of the 16th and 17th centuries have written well-known works for the soprano flute. In the late 17th and 18th century. the alto flute was "the" instrument for composers like Bach, Haendel, Vivaldi and many more. For the "easy" entry into the world of music with little fingers, the soprano flute is ideal, adults can start immediately with the larger alto flute (in F, but don't panic, that's "normal"). For adults who would like to stick to the C-flute, but find the soprano "too small", the tenor offers a wonderful deep and warm tone. Many alto flute players will sooner or later develop an interest in the bass flute. It has a deep, mysterious, deep sound. Unfortunately, many players then rely on the fact that the bass part is / will be transferred into the treble clef, as they cannot read the bass clef. For these players we offer bass clef reading as a workshop. We offer another workshop "Celtic playing on the block flute", in which we show, explain and work out the differences between traditional and Celtic playing styles with the student / participant.

J'ai participé à de nombreuses classes de master de piano en Europe et j'ai étudié avec de grands pianistes. J'apprends toujours auprès de différents pianistes hautement accomplis. Je travaille comme pianiste professionnel depuis maintenant 7 ans, en Suisse, en Espagne, aux Maldives, à Chypre, en Autriche, en Islande et sur des navires de croisière de luxe (autour du monde). Au cours de ma carrière, j'ai appris que la compassion, la communication et l'encouragement sont tout aussi essentiels à la transmission de connaissances musicales que de compétences techniques. Je vous apprends également à vous DÉTENDRE CORRECTEMENT, afin que vous ne subissiez jamais aucune blessure (tendinite, etc.) pendant que vous pratiquez le piano. Mon expérience professionnelle comprend le coaching d'étudiants de tous niveaux et de tous âges, l'enseignement à différents niveaux de compétences.

Je peux vous apprendre à jouer de la musique classique, du ragtime, du blues, du jazz, de la musique traditionnelle, de la musique moderne (Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, etc.), de la musique ancienne (Abba, Queen, etc.). Je dispense mes cours en utilisant une combinaison de 4 caméras pour une visibilité optimale et un microphone de qualité que mes étudiants trouvent très utile. Cela leur permet de voir une démonstration visuelle très claire à côté de mon explication verbale. J'obtiens d'excellents résultats avec mes étudiants qui travaillent en ligne. Je vous donnerai des cours de piano en ligne personnalisés. Pour les débutants, j'utilise les livres de méthode Alfred, mais je suis très ouvert à l'utilisation d'autres livres également. J'aime enseigner et expliquer des choses générales, des habitudes qui peuvent être appliquées à des passages musicaux similaires, que l'on retrouve dans toutes les partitions musicales, de la musique classique à la musique moderne. J'ai environ 10 000 abonnés sur Youtube, 18 000 sur Facebook et 30 000 sur Instagram. J'espère que vous apprécierez la lecture de mon profil, le visionnage de ma vidéo

    Online piano lessons for everybody: from any starting level with any set goal!
    Learning to play the piano is a wonderful and very diverse experience! Every beginner has to go through it in their own special way in order to realize one's personal aspirations. But sometimes, unfortunately, due to a lack of guidance and direction, the learning process may cause some difficulties followed by unexpected disappointment. If you are in need of said guidance, if your learning experience is not that captivating or satisfying anymore, you don't have to turn away from your dreams of playing the piano - I will gladly help you to get closer to them in a fun and enjoyable way in our lessons! After finishing music school with the highest grades twice as well as a number of additional courses (improvisation, composition, orchestras, etc.) and after honing my teaching skills for more than 4 years, I can safely say that my lessons may prove useful to any type of student with any kind of given objective at hand. No matter your age, your previous experience, or background, you just need to name me your personal goal, task, or even a dream - be ready to dedicate a little time and effort, and I will take care of all the rest. Learning your favorite song, getting prepared for a concert, or simply improving the skills you already possess - in music, everything is possible and achievable, and I'll be more than glad to prove it to you in our lessons.

    Giorgia
    Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
    I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.
