Vibraphone Lessons in Amsterdam

Hello! I'm Marco Ullstein, passionate professional percussion, vibraphone and marimba teacher in Amsterdam. I have extensive experience performing in orchestras and leading jazz bands. Is it your dream of playing Jazz and improvising in a band like Milt Jackson or Gary Burton, or mastering a contemporary solo marimba piece? I'll guide you every step of the way.

Beginner to Advanced

Whether you're just starting your musical journey or already play an instrument like drums or piano and want to expand your rhythmic or melodic knowledge, the vibraphone, xylophone and marimba offer endless possibilities.

All Genres - Classical to Jazz

The vibraphone, marimba, and xylophone are incredibly versatile instruments that let you play the music you love most. They fit into any genre. Classical, jazz, funk, blues, or pop. Playing vibes or marimba combines the fun of percussion with the beauty of melodic expression.

Trial Lesson

I always like to schedule a trial lesson first, so we can get to know each other, play a bit, try out a trumpet if you've never played before. We discuss your goals, musical styles and wishes regarding lesson times etc.

Teaching Location

If you have a marimba or vibraphone at your home, I can come to you for the lessons. Other option is that we arrange the lessons in a studio that I can provide.

What can you expect?

From the basics of holding mallets, creating a good sound, and understanding music notes, scales, and harmony, to advanced techniques like complex rhythms and harmonic concepts.  Lessons can include playing along with tracks to develop your ensemble skills.

Discover the Magic

One of the most exciting aspects of these instruments is learning to play with four mallets. This technique unlocks new possibilities, enabling you to play chords and more virtuose pieces. You'll ove it!

Music Theory

Beyond mastering technique, developing a deeper understanding of harmony and music theory is essential for greater creative freedom on the instrument. Discover how music theory can enhance your playing and even help you start composing your own music.

About Me

As a versatile musician, I frequently perform in a variety of settings, from percussion ensembles and orchestras to jazz bands, trios, and as a bandleader. My performance experience spans classical, jazz, and everything in between, enriching my teaching with a broad and adaptable perspective.

Practical Experience

I hold a bachelor's degree in Classical Percussion from the Conservatory of Munich and a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Vibraphone from the Royal Conservatory of The Hague. Currently I'm pursuing my master's degree in jazz Vibraphone at the Conservatory of Amsterdam. My academic background and practical experience equip me to teach students of all levels and musical interests.

Concerts

I frequently perform live with various groups, including my own ensemble, the Marco Ullstein Quintet, where I play my original compositions.
