About Alex
As a professionally trained, guest and freelance conductor I have a huge wealth of experience on the podium, a lot of in-depth knowledge of orchestral and choral scores, and critically, I know a lot of extremely helpful and practical things you can use when on the podium to capitalise on your ensemble's potential and make your music more moving for the public and your players.

Want to take your conducting to the next level? Through a series of lessons on technique, interpretation and score analysis I'll show you what it takes to become a professional conductor in today's musical world.
As well as 1-1 sessions, you'll conduct orchestral reductions with pianists and take part in masterclasses with some of the UK's top amateur orchestras and work with small groups of professional players.
Whether you want more knowledge and experience before pursuing a career in conducting, you want to refine your skills on the podium in preparation for an upcoming project, or you just want to 'open your ears' a little more...this is the perfect course for you!
Lessons will usually be held online for score study and 1-1 technique sessions, at Jacques Samuels Piano Studios for piano classes and workshops with professional players, and around the UK for visits to amateur orchestra and choir sessions.

I have been having lessons with Alex for just over a year. Alex is friendly and patient and makes the lessons fun. He listens to what I want to do and gives me the confidence to have a go. His instructions are clear to follow and he gives useful tips on how to improve.
I have been playing for several years but have seen great improvement in my playing during the last 12 months.I approached Alex for lessons in March 2020 and found him through an online search for a Violin teacher. I get nervous when meeting new people, but Alex made me feel comfortable straight away and I greatly enjoy our lessons.
He explains things clearly, and takes my personal goals into consideration for long-term lesson planning. Alex is calm, attentive and amicable during lessons and voices corrections or new information in a way that's easy to act on and to understand.
Alex supplies a good range of practice material between our lessons, and I feel he encourages and makes me aware of my strengths whilst also supporting and helping me build on my weaknesses in a way that always leaves me feeling as though I've made some kind of progress.
Very happy to have him as my teacher and would recommend to anyone looking to take up the instrument regardless of age or experience (as an older beginner myself) :DView more recommendations
