About Me
My name is Alborz Aeini. I was born in 1991. My musical journey began 14 years ago with the guitar. After a while, quite by chance, I bought a harmonica. A Chinese-made instrument that wasn't very good, but it was attractive enough for me to decide to start learning the harmonica alongside the guitar. The main attraction for me was that I could take it with me everywhere, and there was no limit to playing melodies, which led me to choose this instrument as my main instrument. I've been teaching this instrument for about 6 years now and my goal is to be able to convey the attractiveness of this instrument to my students so that they can enjoy the world of music through this instrument.
Teaching Method
The most important principle of our class is to learn how to enjoy listening to and practicing music. My teaching style varies depending on your time, energy, and strengths and weaknesses. In our class, in addition to learning how to play the harmonica, we also talk about music theory and solfege for a deeper understanding. It is very important to me that you can have musical interactions with players of other instruments, and for this reason, for all the pieces we work on, I send you an accompaniment audio file of piano or guitar so that you can learn to play along. Every week, you also listen to the works of an artist that I introduce to you and we talk about it.
