About Me
Hello!I'm Joshua and I am an altviool/viool player. I have come to the Netherlands a few years ago to have a musical career here. I chose this country because I have been here as a tourist a few times and I absolutely loved the Dutch experience!
I want to teach because I believe sharing music is a wonderful thing and I love to see the shine in a person's eyes when they feel the joy of music or playing an instrument or the moment of understanding the solution of a tricky thing that the person has to do(including my self). I also believe teaching keeps a musician fresh and full of creativity! These are my greatest motivations for teaching.
I am currently studying for my second bachelor's in music at ArtEZ and I have finished another one in Istanbul at Marmara University. I also play viool when it is necessary because in principle it is the same with altviool
If you would like to see my CV, please do not hesitate to ask!
All the best and thank you,
Joshua

Viola lessons - discover the rich, warm sound - from beginner to advaced studentsThe viola, with its rich, mellow tone and deeply expressive character, offers a musical experience unlike any other. Whether you are a teenager discovering the instrument for the first time, or an adult returning to music with renewed curiosity, my viola lessons offer a space to grow both musically and personally.
In these lessons, you will not only explore the viola’s warm and expressive voice, but also cultivate self-awareness through mindful posture, body awareness techniques, and focused listening. Learning to play the viola well requires attention to the body as much as to the instrument, and together we will create a practice that encourages both physical ease and musical sensitivity.
Lessons are tailored to individual needs and goals, including:
• Preparation for exams or auditions
• Building or refining technique
• Expanding musical expression through repertoire and improvisation
In addition to one-on-one instruction, we will also make music together — exploring duets to deepen your sense of musical connection and communication.
Whether your aim is to perform, to progress, or simply to enjoy the intimate sound of the viola, these lessons offer a supportive and inspiring environment in which to develop your skills.
For more information please get in touch.

Professional violinist is giving lessons of violin online! Learn to play violin and enjoy every lesson! 😊In this violin course you will learn a foundation in learning one of the most rewarding instruments in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
Grip the bow, hold the violin, have the perfect hand position and enjoy playing the strings while learning how to read the notes, the violin rhythm and technique.
Students will generally learn better if they feel a connection developing with their teacher, whether that’s through humour, showing care about their development, or making sure teacher devote time equally to all students when in a group.
You will not regret. 😊
Giacomo
Violin Lessons in Zurich: Mastery and Mindfulness!Dear students,
My name is Giacomo and I hold two Master of Arts in Music Performance, one in Rome and one from the "Zurcher Hochschule der Kunste" in Zurich.
During my class lessons you'll learn the wonderful art of playing the violin, an incredible instrument! I have many years of experience with teaching, I do private lessons and I have worked as a teacher for "Tiziano Rossetti International Music Academy in Lugano" for several years. As a teacher my goal is to bring out the best version of my students, using their individual strenghts, which are different for each of them. It's a pleasure for me to teach to anybody who wants even just to discover the art of playing the violin. As a pedagogue, after one month experience in a meditation retreat in Thailand, my approach involves not only focusing on the technical development of the instrument but also paying close attention to the physical and mental well-being of my students. I incorporate meditation and yoga as key elements to ensure a pleasant and optimal experience with the instrument and with oneself.

Violin or piano lessons to inspire, balancing technique and musicalityI aim to strike a balance as much as possible between teaching technical skills and musicality, as of course there cannot be one without the other when learning an instrument. Lessons are a mixture of teaching and demonstrating correct posture, finger patterns or body movements, and teaching and engaging a learner with rhythm, pitch and melody, and then combining them together.
I am a firm believer in tackling one aspect at a time in lessons and gradually combining it with another aspect of playing. I often include activities such as playing a note and asking the student to match my pitch or sound quality, or including musical games that can develop musical memory and rhythm.
The most important aspect of learning any instrument is of course the music! Aiming to help a student find music (or if they have ideas they are welcome to bring them along!) that they love and find absorbing - this can be any genre, as long as it has a tune! I have a variety of books of different levels that I can use to help students find styles that are fun and enjoyable for them. There are technical things that need to be worked on in playing any instrument - but of fundamental importance is that the student has a feel for the music they play and a musical idea of what the end goal of any piece is.
