PRIVATE ONLINE BASS LESSONS
Refine your sound. Strengthen your musicianship. Play with confidence.
Private bass instruction for musicians who value focused guidance, thoughtful attention, and measurable progress.
I’m Eddie Curi, a professional bass guitarist with a master’s degree in Music Performance from Shepherd University. Based between Los Angeles and Belo Horizonte, I work privately with students worldwide in English and Portuguese.
Every lesson is shaped around your experience, musical interests, and ambitions. Whether you are beginning with the instrument, refining advanced skills, or preparing for professional work, you will receive a clear and practical path forward.
A PERSONALIZED APPROACH
Rather than following a one-size-fits-all curriculum, we will build a focused study plan around the musician you want to become.
Your lessons may include:
• Refined playing technique and efficient practice methods
• Time, feel, groove, and rhythm-section awareness
• Fretboard fluency, harmony, and applied music theory
• Ear training and confidently learning music by ear
• Rock, pop, and country repertoire
• Bass-line development and improvisation
• Audition, concert, and recording preparation
• The musical judgment expected in professional settings
Each concept is connected to real music, so your progress is both practical and lasting.
