Hi! Nice to meet you , and welcome to my course page! I am Ilia Laporev, and I’m a professional cellist from Belgium. I am mostly active as a cello master teacher, but also very experienced in Symphony Orchestras. From 2015-2018 I was Principal Solo Cello of the prestigious OSESP (Symphony Orchestra of São Paulo). After my Brazilian experience I went back to Europe where I got invited to play as a Solo Cello in world leading orchestras such as the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestre Philharmonique de Luxembourg and many others.
I have done so many orchestral auditions in my life, and like most of the musicians, I did not get the place. But I never saw it as a failure, I saw it more as an experience to become even stronger for the next audition. But sometimes it’s just destiny. Life will show you the path. Remember, you need to fail if you want to succeed.
And in this course, I want to pass my knowledge and experience along to you. Welcome to the Cello Masterclass on Selected Cello Orchestral Excerpts, probably the most in-depth course you will find on the internet.
Testimonials:
“A teacher with a lot of experience & super explanations! And besides, his playing is so wonderful! I am always super excited to go practice.” – E. Zattoni
“Taking classes with Ilia is amazing! My technique improved! Ilia, being an excellent cellist, he is also an amazing teacher that knows how to explain very easy in what he wants. And also a great encourager, making the student going further and further.” – C. Ribeiro
“ For those who would like to study cello, Ilia is one of the best teachers of our times. Brilliant cellist, with solid Russian/French school and he developed an efficient distance learning method.” – Olga K.
My goal is to teach you things that no one talks about! Playing orchestral excerpts is not only playing things ‘correctly’, there is so much behind it. That’s why I chose these three excerpts, because they are musically the most challenging excerpts to execute.
Debussy: La Mer
Beethoven: Symphony No. 5, second movement – Andante con moto
Verdi: Requiem – Offertorio
I’m sure you’re gonna love this course! If by any chance you won’t, you will have Udemy’s 30-day money-back guarantee.
Looking forward for our course!
Yours,
Ilia
