    Cello, music composition, theory, improvisation, any music question

    Do you want to discover the cello? Improve yourself? Play the songs you like to hear?
    All ages, levels and musical styles are welcome.
    My personalized teaching method is to study the profile and the difficulties of each student, in order to be able to offer him a learning method that corresponds to him.
    I offer individualized classes, with different methods depending on the objective of each student.
    Learning an instrument is not only a skill, but a lifetime enjoyment. The need to express emotions or let loose some inner tension, an instrument is the perfect tool. Music sings the sound of the soul, and the cello is the perfect instrument. Having played the cello for 17 years, i can say that music is a must for a happy life. It is the universal language. Dont be afraid to take that first step.
    I will be very happy if I can help you, and show you how fun and easy can be playing cello!

    I am enthusiastic, creative, open to new challenges. I am versatile - I have performed a
    large repertoire of diverse cello music. I collaborate in chamber ensembles, in
    orchestras, also have been playing in orchestra in Germany, Lithuania, Czech Republic, in
    Malta, In Poland, I have also been playing solo with orchestra. I accepted an invitation to
    become a cello teacher and it was helpful as I became more critical of myself and I was
    looking for new techniques and methods.
    I have been composing since the age of 8, I write compositions in the chamber music genre, including for cello solo, cello and piano, piano and oboe and string quartet. Music is my language and my way to express myself, I feel
    every note deep in my heart and it is reflected in the timbre of the cello.

    About Me

    I am enthusiastic, creative, open to new challenges. I am versatile - I have performed a large repertoire of diverse cello music. For instance, Bach, Beethoven, Boccherini, Breval, Tchaikovsky, Schnittke, Popper, Davidoff, Piatti, Faure, Prokofiev, Milhaud, Saint-Saens, Haydn, Cassado, Hindemith, Schumann, Ravel. I collaborate in chamber ensembles, in orchestras, also have been playing in orchestra in Germany, Lithuania, Czech Republic, in Malta, In Poland, I have also playing solo with orchestra. I accepted an invitation to become a cello teacher and it was helpful as I became more critical of myself and I was looking for new techniques and methods.
    2 years of work experience in official music school and 3 years experience teaching private lessons.
    I have been composing since the age of 8, but I became professional when I met Peteris Vasks. He has been my composition teacher and my great inspiration. I write compositions in the chamber music genre, including for cello solo, cello and piano, piano and oboe, string quartet. Music is my language and my way to express myself, I feel every note deep in my heart and it is reflected in the timbre of the cello.
    The cello is a very versatile instrument and can be used in many different styles. That's why I'm very open in my lessons and I'm happy to help my students learn classical and less classical playing techniques so that they can play the music they want.
    I will introduce You with the magic of music.

    Cello in a nutshell: Cello lessons for everyone in Mainz and online
    Music is very interesting both as a profession and as a hobby, but in the beginning we all have difficulties when it comes to playing an instrument. But with a little guidance and a bit of patience you can get the desired results... it's proven :) My name is Paula, I love teaching and working with enthusiastic people, because as I said, teaching others is actually teaching yourself ;). My bachelor's degree at the Conservatory of Ghent (Belgium) taught me what music interpretation is. At the Peter Cornelis Conservatory I learned the important basics of cello and music teaching. In recent years I have gained a lot of experience teaching cello in individual and group lessons as well as in string class lessons. The way of teaching will suit the level of the student (for beginners I divide the lessons into two parts: half basic music theory and the other half cello), and I will always have my cello with me to illustrate. If you are interested in playing this beautiful instrument, do not hesitate to write to me. Music is a beautiful game.
