Paul Anders Søgaard

Not achievement, but change of attitude, the disappearance of the ego.

Via the Alexander Technique and use of improvisation, I have created a way of teaching and performing which allows me to communicate freely and without any unnecessary tension, except the one that derives from the music itself.

I am a qualified  Performing Arts Medicine Therapist and a Practitioner for

· The Royal Society of Musicians of Great Britain London

· The Musicians Benevolent Fund London, UK

 

"The guitarist, but also the human being that he is, appealed to me with his musical qualities, and especially because of the very strong motivation that radiates from his person. Paul will always seek the best of himself; for the benefit of his art!"
Roland Dyens, Professor of Guitar, Conservatoire National Superieur de Musique de Paris, France.

"Paul's profound understanding and internalisation of the Alexander Technique have a remarkable effect on his musical performance and teaching: he and his guitar become one. To witness this is a joyful intellectual and emotion experience."
Ilana Machover, Alexander teacher, Royal Academy of Music, London.

We just wanted to thank you for setting up the Jazz band—our son said that it had changed his life!!  We’re so grateful.
