Cello lessons
I have been teaching cello with great pleasure for many years. Playing the cello is for people of all ages (minimum age of students for me is 5 years old) and of all levels. Whether you would like to learn the basics of playing the cello or to take your playing to a higher level, please feel free to contact me for more information about lessons and to book a trial lesson.
Playing music with other musicians - from small ensembles to large orchestras - is one of the most enjoyable parts of making music. From playing music together you learn a lot: besides having lots of fun, you learn to listen to each other for example. Therefore, I spend a great deal of the lessons on ensemble playing. Of course we’ll also work on hearing training, reading notes, music theory and posture behind the instrument.
Perhaps you already play with a pianist or other musicians. Maybe you have an ensemble and you are looking for someone to listen to the overall balance and to give some pointers. I teach and coach music ensembles of many different instruments (for example piano trio or string quartet) and offer coaching sessions alongside my regular lessons.
My lessons are held on a weekly basis and at my studio, especially in the beginning. I offer 30, 45 and 60-minute lessons, depending on age, level and desire.
The following days I teach at these locations:
Monday - Lisse, cinema Floralis
Wednesday - Haarlem, Lutherse Kerk
Thursday - Purmerend, music school Van Ingen
