The song accompaniment method nominated by the singers of the highest rank in modern times.The music that he builds with the singer while giving consideration to the singer is highly acclaimed by the media.Learn from the Leipzig University of Music professor, who specializes in song accompaniment, which is rare in the world, and learn the technique, musicality, and secrets!

German pianist Alexander Schmalcz took his first piano lesson when he was a member of the Dresdner Kreid Choir, a boys choir. I fell in love with the piano that I happened to receive, and when I entered the Dresden Conservatory of Music in Germany, I transferred to the Utrecht Conservatory in the Netherlands and studied under piano accompaniment specialists Iain Burnside and Graham Johnson at the Guildhall Conservatory in the United Kingdom. As a piano accompaniment, he won the Gerald Moore Award and won the Dutch Impressariat International Competition as a piano trio. As a chamber musician, he has performed with leading musicians such as Albrecht Mayer (Ob) and Dimitri Ashkenazy (Cla), but his strength is probably song accompaniment. Legendary singers such as Peter Schreier, Edita Gruberová, Grace Bumbry and Anna Tomowa-Sintou, as well as modern-day baritone Matthias Goerne, will nominate him as an accompaniment. With a rich accompaniment repertoire, he has released many CDs, including Harmonia Mundy, and regularly performed at major halls around the world, including Wigmore Hall in London, Concerto Hebow in Amsterdam, and the Wiener Musikverein. He has also been invited to music festivals such as the Salzburg Music Festival, the Tanglewood Music Festival and the Spring Music Festival in Prague. Currently, he is a leading educator as a professor of song accompaniment at the Leipzig University of Music. "Song accompaniment requires the pianist to instantly enter into various roles, just as a singer plays a variety of roles. Not only playing techniques, but also expanding your imagination while staying close to the singer."
* Leipzig University of Music is a university that has a master's course in song accompaniment, which is rare in the world.



An online public song accompaniment lesson by Alexander Schmalz, professor at the world-renowned Leipzig University of Music in Germany, will be held on Tuesday, September 2024, 9!

A limited number of people can receive direct instruction from Professor Alexander Schmalz from the &Vision Hall in Ochanomizu, Tokyo or from your home (online attendance is also available). If you are planning to study abroad in Germany and study song accompaniment, you can get a foothold in studying abroad. The lessons taught by professors at the Leipzig University of Music in Germany will be a helpful guide when deciding where to study abroad. The professor would be happy to share various music with everyone in Japan. Anyone can take this course, regardless of age or level. It is especially suitable for those who are thinking about studying abroad as a song accompaniment, those who are preparing for competitions and auditions, those who want to level up, and those who simply love music! Don't miss this opportunity! Due to the time difference, this event will be held with a very limited number of participants.
* Private lessons are recommended for those who do not want to publish lessons or those who do not meet the schedule. If you are interested, please contact an And Vision Counselor.

If you haven't taken lessons yet, you can listen to them. There is so much you can learn by not only playing for yourself, but also watching other people's lessons. In fact, many students in Europe study through listening. It is also an opportunity to listen to the performances of many other people, and through the lessons of various people, you will be able to better understand the teaching method and personality of the teacher. Musical instruments other than the piano can also enjoy the atmosphere of overseas classes, so please feel free to join us. The teaching method of overseas professors is completely different from that of Japan. In particular, the main focus is to "enjoy and express music more", so the points to teach vary from student to student. Isn't it a big point for those who are aiming to study abroad or become a professional in the future to feel how the points of teaching are different from those in Japan? Even if you are not satisfied with Japan, it will be an opportunity to think about studying abroad.

If you are thinking of studying in Germany or other European countries, you will be able to study abroad on a trial basis while staying in Japan.Consider the possibility of studying in Europe.

It's a great chance to meet an overseas teacher while you are in Japan!
Just thinking does not open the door to your dreams. There is only action. Don't miss this opportunity!
