Acoustic guitar lessons in Utrecht for beginners and advanced players : classical, bossa-nova, world music and jazz (Lessons in English, French, Spanish)

Elke les bij Alexandre geeft me groot plezier. Hij helpt me met bewustwording van het gereedschap om te kunnen zingen: adem, stembanden en tong.
Mijn eigen gekozen liedjes gaan steeds mooier en overtuigender klinken.

Alexandre has greatly helped me as a beginning guitarist to master my greatest passion: Brazilian music. From the very start, he always managed to give my enthusiasm a tremendous boost; each lesson was inspiring and motivating. What stood out most to me was his expertise and thorough preparation — he considered exactly what I needed for every lesson and responded perfectly to it.
Each lesson felt tailor-made. Sometimes he would create transcriptions of songs I had mentioned wanting to learn. He listened to my wishes but also challenged me to try new styles and techniques.
In short, an excellent teacher!

J'ai suivi les cours d'Alexandre au conservatoire pendant un an. Il m'a beaucoup apporté en connaissances théoriques et pratiques sur ma voix. J’ai pris confiance doucement. J’ai aimé sa pédagogie inclusive et bienveillante. Je le recommande chaudement.


Great teacher who gives interesting and relevant advice. Benevolent and kindly. I learned a lot.
I advise :)

Alexandre Dandelot is a very competent teacher and a generous person who has the talent to pass on his rich experience. In France, I had the opportunity to go to his classes in a polyphonic ensembles during one year. Here, there was a very stimulating, creative and communicative energy. In a safe and caring environment, I learned a lot about singing and music as a whole. I encourage you to take lessons with him. Anne-Flore

I followed once a week Alexandre Dandelot's singing lessons last year, in a music school in Lyon (France).
It was a precious help for me, and I made a lot of progress thanks to him.
He was patient, and both kind and demanding. He's also really open-minded and often questionning himself in order to improve his lessons.
He loves teaching for sure and I really recommand taking class with him !

Alexandre est un enseignant de grande qualité, enthousiaste, sympathique, précis dans sa transmission. Il a une approche globale et variée de la technique vocale et saura vous accompagner vers plus de musicalité. J'ai suivi son atelier à l'Ecole nationale de musique de Villeurbanne pendant un an et ça a été très formateur, et aussi un grand plaisir! Je recommande sans hésiter :-)

English : Experienced guitarist, I took some guitar lessons with Alexandre in order to learn new techniques and to renew my playing, left hand as well as right hand. He is a specialist in Latin music and left-hand arrangements and he was able to introduce me to new aesthetics and types of playing while adapting to my needs. Being also part of a Latin music band directed by Alexandre, I appreciated his way of managing a group, his ability to listen and his professionalism.
Competent, complete and very friendly, I can only recommend Alexandre !

I took lessons with Alexandre for a bit less than 2 years and his lessons allowed me to pass important steps in my vocal practice and to gain confidence! Good teacher, offering the right exercises to evolve, adapting to requests and flexible (regular courses by video during the pandemic) I can only recommend Alexandre as a teacher!

I studied guitar for a year with Alexandre. It was great: good method, well organized course. I recommend him without reservation!

Alexandre taught me the guitar last year, his classes were great because he always let me choose what I wanted to do! We worked on a few of my own songs and he helped me perfect them. He gave me this amazing technique to find jazz chords more easily all over the fretboard, I’ve been using it a lot since!

I was also part of one of his choirs, and I can say he’s got good advice for singers too!

So I definitely recommend Alex both as guitar and singing teacher, you won’t regret it :)

Alexandre is one of the best guitar teachers I have met. He is very attentive and made me progress enormously. I recommand it !

Alexandre is an extremely competent and very friendly teacher. He has deep and varied knowledge. With him you will really move forward and progress in your projects!

I've been attending Alexandre's courses for adults in Villeurbanne's Conservatory (France) for one year. He taught me guitar as well as musical theory. I shall remember his competence, his patience, his hard work and motivation, his ability to adapt the variety of levels, backgrounds and expectations of his students in order to make us all go further in our skills. He truly is a great teacher, not not mention a great musician!

I had Alexandre as a choir teacher in Lyon, France, in a course entitled "Chant du monde" for a year and it was a great experience. I had the feeling of being accompanied with sensitivity while having great freedom. His proposals were varied, original and attentive to the singers. I had a lot of pleasure singing, while learning a lot. He is a great teacher with whom I would have had the pleasure of continuing for another year, but at who I wish good road in the Netherlands! :)

Alexandre was my guitar teacher at the national music school of Villeurbanne France. His great knowledge made me make a lot of progress in a short amount of Time. He is a very kind and openminded person and a great musician. I highly recommend him as a teacher.

Great prof, he’s listens and adapts his method for every students ! I recommend !

Alexandre has been an awesome teacher last year. He knows how to involve students in their work by making them responsible. He is also an amazing musician who has more than one string to his bow, he plays the guitar as well as percussion and he's a great singer.
Moreover, his vocal expertise helps a lot to overcome your difficulties.
He is the super prof you are searching for !
