Alan Fraser visits Geneva a few times each year to teach privately at the Conservatoire Populaire de Musique à Genève. These visits are for private lessons only with no Awareness Through Movement lessons or lectures. Fraser is fluent in both English and French, and uses the participant's native tongue wherever possible.
Fraser works with pianists to improve the ease and fluency with which they can orchestrate their sound, through subtle adjusments both to overall body posture and to hand posture that are recorded in the body's neuromotor representation. He can also work with other instrumentalists and vocalists.
Are you hesitant to take a lesson? Not well-enough prepared? Don't worry; Alan will teach you, no matter what the state of your program. Working on a new piece with Alan can help you avoid the technical errors we sometimes make during the learning process. Thus he really does work with all interested pianists, vocalists and instrumentalists:
There is no limit to improvement!
Alan's Feldenkrais-informed approach to performance also helps instrumentalists and vocalists, transforming their sound by making minute postural adjustments that release hidden physical blocks. If you have a friend or colleague with a specific performance issue, why not invite them to take a lesson.
In Geneva Alan often teaches in private homes, but sometimes will use a studio at the Conservatoire Populaire, located at Rue François-D’Ivernois 7.
Some lessons will be held at the "satellite conservatoire" at Chemin des Crêts-de-Champel 40.
