Works as a live and studio musician throughout Austria.
Completed instrumental and pedagogical studies at the Vienna Conservatory.
Taught and attended workshops with Mario Dancso, Christian Havel, Raimund Gritzner, Fritz Steiner, Andreas Wallner, Patrick Honeck, Carl Verheyen, Pat Martino, and others.
Various musical projects (Don Quijote, Leben ohne Chris,...) Also works as a musical theater guitarist.
Has been working as a guitar instructor for several years, specializing in country, fingerstyle, accompaniment, classical, blues, rock, pop, jazz, and more
All styles are taught, including Pop, Blues, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Metal, Classical, Bossa Nova, and more.
In addition to various playing techniques and music styles, you'll also learn how to use amplifiers, effects, pedals, pickups, picks, strings, and more.
It's important to me that you don't feel your creativity is stifled by simply playing songs note-for-note.
The focus is on understanding the instrument and music rather than perfectly reproducing existing rhythms and melodies.
We'll work together to achieve your "goals" through a rough semester plan on my part, combined with your ideas. The lessons are tailored individually to your wishes and ideas and could look like this:
In the first 4 to 6 semesters:
In the following 6 to 8 semesters:
The lessons will focus more on jazz-specific topics.
These will be taught theoretically and practically through:
• Practicing scales (arpeggios, triads, etc.)
• Various modes (e.g., church modes in major and minor)
• Transposing and transcribing compositions
• Improvisation over complex chord progressions
• Composing and arranging your own songs
In my opinion, private lessons are the most efficient way to learn guitar playing.
This allows you to determine the content and pace of your learning—and we do what YOU want!
The duration of the lessons is flexible!

I understand the Guitar-Lessons.at website as an "electronic business card" and "a digitalized overview".
It is not a web shop and no goods are sold or brokered through it and no money flows through this website.
I have no motivation to collect personal data such as email addresses for the purpose of permanent
e-marketing. In the best case, I can arouse interest in music lessons.
Nevertheless, in accordance with the new DSGVO, I must explain how I handle possible data processing of personal data if you contact me in writing via the contact form or by email outside of this website.
This website can be used without providing personal data. However, when you access this website, the IP address of the requester and the web server are transmitted.
IP communication (the mutual exchange of communication addresses) is an indispensable part of making Internet communication (sender-recipient) possible on the WWW and cannot be prevented!
I can assure you that I will handle your personal contact details entrusted to me very carefully in accordance with the guidelines set out in the DSGVO.
I will not make the data you send to anyone! If you no longer wish to be contacted, please let me know and I will delete your submitted data immediately (opt out). If I do not receive a reply to a reply email from me within 90 days, I can assume that you do not wish to be contacted again.
I will then delete your contact details without further contact. This also applies to contact conversations that are conducted over the phone. I will only add you to a list of interested parties with your express written permission. Here too - if you no longer wish to be contacted, please let me know in writing and I will delete your submitted data immediately (opt out).

It would have been easy to simply copy out legal texts - but we want to explain it in an understandable way!
As a rule, lessons are offered as individual lessons in person or online. Lessons are given once a week (unless the flexible tariff is selected). The exact content and scope of the lessons are agreed individually with the contractual partner.
The lessons take place at Döblinger Hauptstraße 7B, 1190 Vienna or Hildebrandgasse 21, 1180 Vienna. These lesson locations are to be chosen depending on the capacity and workload of the teacher or the premises.
The lesson times (Monday to Friday) are fixed personally with the teacher. 30-minutes and 60-minutes lesson times are offered.
For regular lessons:
• For regular, weekly lessons, the lesson fee of 4 units must be paid in advance and is non-refundable. The lesson fee depends on the lesson times selected and the current prices according to this website. The 4 booked units must be used within 6 weeks of the first lesson or the remaining units will expire without a replacement or catch-up date.
For flexible bookings:
• For flexible lessons, each unit consumed is charged individually and must be paid on the same day.
Units can be canceled free of charge up to 48 hours before the agreed date. If you cancel later or do not show up, you will lose your right to the unit. If the teacher is unable to attend, no unit will be charged.
The teacher is not liable for accidents, injuries or other incidents that occur during the lesson or on the way there. The contracting party is responsible for his/her personal property.
