About Jean-René

Hi! I'm Jean Rene, a musician and teacher originally from Montreal. I began classical piano at age 5 at the prestigious Académie de Musique Vincent-d'Indy, then spent 15+ years expanding into jazz, pop, blues, rock, funk, R&B and more.

Live looping is one of my specialties: I master the art of loop-making and I teach it. Live looping is mostly associated with guitarists, but it's a natural fit for keyboardists too, and I'll show you how to make it work on your instrument so your one-person act can sound as a full band! In live looping, you don't need to stick to only one instrument either! You can add drum beats, synth leads or pads, voice, bass, analog sounds...and everything your mind can imagine! I perform live as a solo act, singing and playing piano with my loops, so everything I teach comes from real stage experience, not just theory.

Looping also draws on my other skills. I compose and work in film scoring and music production (2+ years), I'm continuing my studies in music theory and arrangement, and I sing and play transverse flute. That's what lets me help you build loops that sound like finished arrangements, not just repeating patterns.

For the past 3 years, I've taught students of all ages and levels, online and in person. I'm fully trilingual (English, French and Spanish), so we can work in the language that feels most natural to you.

My teaching philosophy
I want looping to give you a new outlet for self-expression, a way to create a full band sound all by yourself and feel free, confident and creative. Every student is unique, so I build lessons around your goals, learning style and pace.

In our first few lessons, I get to know your goals, your current playing level and your setup, in a friendly, low-pressure atmosphere. From there, everything is tailored to you.

What you'll need
Loopy Pro is an iPad and iPhone app, so you'll need an iPad or iPhone with Loopy Pro installed and a MIDI keyboard. Not sure if your setup works? Message me and we'll sort it out before your first lesson.

Your lessons, your way
Some students want a step-by-step path, starting with the basics of looping and building up to full live performances. Others prefer to jump straight into building loops for songs they love. Both are welcome, and we can mix the two.

What we can explore together

Looping foundations: how loops work, timing and staying in sync, and recording clean, tight layers
Loopy Pro with a MIDI keyboard: setting up and using Loopy Pro as a keyboard player
Building songs live: layering bass lines, chords, melodies and rhythms into full arrangements
Singing and playing: techniques for looping your voice and playing the keys at the same time
Improvising over loops: using scales and harmony to play and solo over what you've built
Performing solo or in a band: turning your loops into a confident live set
Beyond looping: DAWs such as Ableton and Logic Pro, and how your loops can become finished tracks
Songs and repertoire: loop arrangements of songs you love, starting simple and getting more ambitious with each one

Looping, improvising, arranging and performing all work together, and once you can build a song from scratch in real time, you'll play with more confidence everywhere. Above all, I keep our time together fun, because that's what keeps you practicing and improving.

Want to go deeper? Looping gets even more powerful with a solid understanding of harmony. I also offer music theory lessons, from the basics to advanced harmony, and piano lessons for all levels. Check out my other ads!

Whether your dream is to perform live solo, create your own music, or simply have fun jamming by yourself, I look forward to making music with you!
