What Others Say
Impressions from collaborators, audiences, and students
My son has been studying piano with Ms Kristina Kebet, Bruxelles since the age of 7 for the last 6 years. For me, Kristina is a perfect teacher. Not only is she a performer in her own right - and a spectacularly good one at that, she is also able to teach the instrument. I’ve found that often people can do one (like performance )but not teach well. Kristina can do both, and very well.
For me, the best thing about her teaching style is that she works in an organic , fluidic way according to the child’s personality. As every child or person is different, so is Kristina’s teaching style with each one.
Obviously she’s patient, as you would expect from a teacher, but she also brings humour with her teaching which children (certainly my child) is drawn to.
My so has progressed from simple beginner pieces , and has, over these 6 years mastered a variety of styles from Baroque (Pachelbel Canon) to Romantic (Mozart, Beethoven), a Ravel duet, Einaudi, Debussy ( Des pas sur la neige) and is currently learning his favorite film score - Star Wars main theme - what other!!
For anyone with an interest, child or adult, I would happily recommend Kristina as their teacher.
Kristina has been teaching piano to my son for four years. She is a passionate teacher who carefully observes each student’s potential and adapts the learning process to their needs, abilities, and motivation.
Her pedagogical approach is attentive to the child’s musical interests and preferences, which greatly supports both their progress and their enjoyment of playing.
Voordat ik Kristina 2 jaar geleden vroeg om me Chopin’s Nocturne in E minor te leren spelen, had ik nog nooit in mijn leven een pianoles gevolgd. 3 maanden later al speelde ik de volledige nocturne op mijn allereerste studentenconcert. Je beseft wel ergens dat een ervaren concertpianiste heeft nagedacht over de details van haar kunst, maar de wijze waarop Kristina stapsgewijs aandachtspunten introduceert in haar lessen, getuigt van een verbluffend inzicht. In het begin leerde ze me alle vingers te gebruiken, hoe ik mijn handen moest plaatsen en hoe ik mijn armen moest houden. Dan toonde ze me hoe ik snelle reeksen en trillers moest spelen, hoe je gedachten je pianospel (kunnen) beïnvloeden. Telkens weer weet ze je te inspireren om je techniek te verfijnen en te verbreden. En met succes: je hoort telkens hoe de kwaliteit van je spel een niveau stijgt. Achteraf sta ik versteld hoe ze mijn groei heeft begeleid, op zo’n korte tijd en op een manier waarbij ik steeds gemotiveerd, maar toch uitgedaagd bleef. Nu werken we gestaag verder, via de Grande Sonate Pathétique, richting mijn einddoel, Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonate (inclusief de indrukwekkende presto). Ondertusseninspireren de concerten van Kristina mij al om daarna Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibitionaan te vatten.
I've always thought a musical background or at least being able to read music was a requirement to be able to play the piano. Not true... Just the passion for music and being motivated are enough for Kristina to tech you how to play. And not just classical either; modern and folk music are not considered a problem. Just another challenge to overcome! Two years ago I had never seen a piano up close...now I have a YouTube channel :)
