"Si el alumno no comprende, la responsabilidad es del profesor. Aprenda el saxofón sin esfuerzo más que dedicarle un poquito de tiempo" Federico Carreras.

I just had a tryout class with Federico and am happy with how it went. Straight to the point and very hands on instruction that I can work with before next class. I like the efficiency, it is clear he knows what he is doing. Also a very friendly guy, what more could you want?

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Fede for the past six years, and I can confidently say he is an exceptional saxophone teacher. We started with in-person classes at the time of my first ever contact with a saxophone, which he was kind enough to help me choose. Since COVID, we’ve transitioned to online lessons, which have been just as effective. His expertise in both music theory and the practical aspects of playing sax is absolutely unparalleled, and he has a deep love for teaching that shines through in every session.
What sets Fede apart is his ability to adapt to the pace and needs of each student. Whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced player, wether you play for fun like me or you have an ambitious objective in mind, he adjusts the lessons to suit your learning style. His classes are always fun and engaging, making learning a pleasure rather than a chore. If you’re someone who enjoys diving deep into the intricacies of music theory, or if you prefer to focus on practical playing and interpretation, he can cater to your preferences seamlessly.
And even with the complex jazz standards by the world masters, he can break down complex rhythms and phrases into manageable sections. From blues to covers, his versatility and skill for different genres are a pleasure.
I highly recommend Fede to anyone looking to either learn from scratch or refine their saxophone skills. His flexible and adaptable teaching style ensures that each lesson is tailored to your specific needs. And, as he himself put it: before choosing your teacher, listen to him or her play. Once you hear Fede, you'll have no doubt.

I had a session with Federico and plan on continuing my class with him, what I enjoyed was his enthusiasm as a teacher. He also understands the level I am at, and teaches well at an understandable pace, and making room for questions too!

Federico werd me aanbevolen door degene die mijn saxofoon in onderhoud had. Ik heb een paar jaar niet gespeeld, maar wilde graag de draad weer oppakken. Ik twijfelde eerst over online lessen, maar vond dat het echt geweldig werkt! Het is prettig ook dat je een heel uur hebt: daarin krijg je echt wel werk gedaan. Federico kon heel goed inschatten wat mijn niveau is en ook de lesinhoud daarop aanpassen. Kortom: ik ben super tevreden!

My first class with Federico was so fluid and I have learned so many things during that first hour. Federico is very open, approachable and knew how to address my concerns/fears when it comes to learning jazz coming from a classical background. He is friendly but also rigorous and precise.
His enthusiasm is the motivation that I needed to dive into a jazz practice. I can only recommend 

Frederico is een topper in les geven. Hij geeft met volle enthousiasme les en is geduldig. Wat heel fijn is dat hij zich enorm verantwoordelijk voelt voor je leerproces als je bijv vastloopt of iets niet begrijpt. Hij legt het uit totdat je het begrijpt en dat gaat gepaard met een hoop creativiteit in zijn uitleg! Een docent die ik kan aanraden aan een ieder die les wil nemen of wil volgen.

The best teacher you can ask for. Geweldige leraar zoveel voor beginners tot advanced spelers. Ik heb zeer goeie ervaring gehad met Federico. Hij neemt de tijd, geeft constant goeie feedbacks en helpt jou om een betere muzikant en saxofoon player te worden.

Federico is very passionate, kind & very knowledgeable in different music styles. You will never regret taking classes with him.
