The Best Choice for Classical and Jazz Piano Lessons
I began studying music at the age of 8, I’ve started first with classical music achieving a Piano Bachelor with the highest marks of the session. During my studies besides Classical Music I’ve been focusing my interest and enthusiasm on jazz music. Until today I’ve worked as Classical and jazz Pianist, composer and session musician in Europe, USA and UK. I’ve always been teaching privately classical and jazz music, Theory, Harmony, composition and improvisation. I’ve started teaching to my students my own idea of music and my personal approach with the instrument, trying always to encourage and stimulate their own musical unicity as I have done and I still do with myself. I believe that any teacher must have a specific and subjective approach with his students in order to analyse, investigate, focus and guide their personal predisposition for the music. I believe that everyone is bent for music. It’s in our decision, desire, willingness and passion to find it in order to express without any inhibition.

" I've had 2 lessons so far with Dan and they've been great so far! He's been helping me work on issues in my playing technique to help with repetitive strain injuries I've been having for the last few years. I didn't know how well it would work doing this over a video call, but luckily Dan has been able to see my playing well enough and give me lots of great advice. He's taken into account my injuries in all of his advice and has been very nice and encouraging.
Thanks Dan! "

" Dan is a wonderful piano teacher - extremely patient, enthusiastic and also very encouraging! I feel inspired to play again after many years of wanting to learn "
" Great Piano Teacher don't hesitate to give Dan a try! "
" Dan is a fantastic piano teacher! He is kind, approachable and patient with my 11 year old son. My son has played classical piano for the last 6 years and wanted to learn Jazz. He also struggled with improvisation. In a short time Dan has not only started teaching him Jazz but also helped my son better his classical techniques. I find he is very good at getting my son out of his comfort zone when it comes to improvisation. Dan's lessons are engaging and interesting. He is very friendly, encouraging and he is always helping my son see the best in him.
I would recommend Dan highly! "
