Valentin Gregor instructs string players and musicians
on other types of instruments in multiple styles, e.g. jazz, folk,
classical and any genre which allows for creative play. This includes
everything from training the musical ear, teaching rhythmic sensation
and theoretical comprehension up to freeing one from the pressures
to perform and preparing for examinations.
"One requires both a theoretical
and practical background in order to gainthe maximum benefit from
my instruction. According to each personal's individual needs,
the lessons focus on articulation, phrasing, feeling and, of course,
the improvisational possibilities available with each individual
style. On top of that are the technical aspects of playing the
violin that absolutely demand time and attention, and training
the ear, something very dear to me. During my lessons I concentrate
on playing without sheet music, especially pieces of music that
have already been learnt with the aid of it." |
