About Xavier
Arranger and leader of steelbands at Calypsociation and at the Philharmonie de Paris for 20 years (trips to Trinidad and collaborations with Andy Narell). Teacher at DE of improvised music since 2008. Since 1988, I have been a classical percussionist (National Orchestras), variety (Juliette, Liane Foly, Indochine, Philippe Lavil ...) and jazz vibraphonist (Etienne M'Bappé, Rido Bayonne, Pierre-Jean Gaucher ...), then I approached the Cuban, Mandingo and West Indian traditions. I play piano, drums and have been using Logic Pro software since 1985 (did it exist at that time? Not sure! But the Atari computer and Pro 24 software yes ...)

My method? 1 - You are the one who suggests the songs you want to play and I chose one of these songs (best suited to the situation). 2 - Listening, we identify together the elements that will allow us to play it without having a score (Tonality, rhythm, harmonies, melody - all concepts explained as needed and practiced progressively). 3 - Depending on your instrument and your possibilities, we decide on a way to play the song. So we make an "arrangement". 4 - We practice exercises (accompanied by the necessary explanations) to end up being able to improvise on this piece (whether it is in relation to the harmonies, in relation to the melody or in relation to the rhythm). 4bis - We can consider making backing tracks to have fun and / or facilitate the business!

Xavier a le sens de la pédagogie, avec une vraie passion pour la musique. Patient et toujours de bonne humeur, il accompagne ses élèves dans la compréhension des notes, de la rythmique, des enchaînements...
Avec lui, les cours de musique sont à la portée de tout le monde.
ElodieTrès pédagogue, patient, avec beaucoup de savoirs à transmettre et toujours de bonne humeur
Xavier m'a été recommandé par des amis musiciens. C'est vraiment un superprof. Je prends des cours d'harmonie et d'improvisation piano depuis presque 1 an. Son studio est bien équipé, aussi bien pour travailler à plusieurs ou qu'en cours particulier. Xavier s'adapte complétement à notre niveau et nos besoins. Super méthode et une mine de techniques de travail. Grand bagage et culture musicale. Et de surcroit, très sympa. Je recommande. Allez-y sans hésiter !!!
Cela fait 3 ans que Xavier m'a initiée puis fait progresser au steel pan, moi qui aimais la musique et cet instrument mais n'avais aucune connaissance théorique musicale. Musicien accompli et éclectique, il s'adapte au niveau de chacun avec patience et pédagogie, humour, décontraction dans la forme mais rigueur et qualité dans le contenu des cours qu'il prépare avec perfectionnisme pour des élèves de tout niveau.
Je vous le recommande vivement!View more recommendations
