Cello Lessons Rotterdam
Hi! I'm enthusiastic cello teacher and cellist Alejandro Sanchez in Rotterdam. Years of teaching experience thought me that you are never too old to start folowing your dream!
Cello for All ages
Age does not exist when it comes to love and passion for music! The deep warm sound of the cello is close to the human voice and moves us all! Have you played before and want to start taking cello lessons again, or have you always wanted to play the cello and now is the time? Looking for a patient and dedicated cello teacher for your child?
Cello Classes Beginners
My cello lessons to beginning cellists cover fun exercises, reading sheet music, basic music theory, relaxed posture, bowing technique, lefthand technique, playing duets and easy and progressive concert pieces.
Intermediate - Advanced cellists
Feel more confident when playing at home, in an orchestra or in your ensemble! Develop your playing with beautiful etudes, duo's, scales, tailor made exercises and the great cello repertoire. Let's put Bach, Offenbach, Vivaldi, Beethoven, Brahms or any other piece you like to play on your music stand. Chamber music and orchestral parts welcome.
What else?
We'll focus on a good intonation, vibrato, thumb position, position playing, advanced bowing technique ( spiccato, staccato, legato, sautillé etc )
Cello Lessons for Children
Cello classes for children are fun and cover playful music basics and an introduction to playing the cello in a relaxed and supportive environment. Lessons can be individual or in duo. I also incorporate some fun games with rhythm, notation and singing. Along the way, playing favourite classical melodies, fun exercises and easy pieces, your child learns to read sheet music and some basic music theory. Check in for a trial lesson!

I give the cello lessons in the comfort of your own home in Rotterdam or at my studio in Rotterdam.
