The trainer

Musician, teacher, and convinced that the great musical disciplines are within everyone's reach, provided we rethink the way they are taught.

For years I have taught the very people classical methods tend to leave behind: motivated adults and teenagers who are nonetheless certain they are «not good enough». Intimidated by music theory. Without the time or the desire to go back to music school.

I have worked with a great many of them, and most simply call me Marie. All different, sometimes unconventional, all convinced at the outset that music «wasn't for them».

Spoiler alert: it was for them.

Through those encounters, and by overcoming my own learning difficulties, I built a personal approach. A method grounded in the senses and in feeling: linking a sound to a colour, a gesture, an emotion. Creating mental images so vivid that you hear a piece with your eyes closed.

This is what I call the imaginary senses: the ability to mentally recreate a sound, a sensation, a whole musical scene, like a memory or a daydream. You do not merely understand the theory: you live it. Here you learn by playing. By practising. By getting it wrong, and being corrected at every attempt. The Note Precision apps accompany each module like a permanent mentor: they guide, correct and adapt to your progress. The more often you are corrected, the faster you progress, and that is the heart of the approach.
