Yacine is one of the founders of music2me and the brain behind our piano course. After graduating from high school, he first completed a one-year intensive course of study at a private music school. This was followed by piano studies at Germany’s oldest university of music in Würzburg. He has been teaching piano to students of all ages for over 10 years and has been leading the composition course at the German Pop Academy Frankfurt since April 2013.
As the founder of the online music school music2me and teacher in the online piano course, I have made it my mission to make learning music accessible to people worldwide.
I combine my passion for the piano with modern teaching methods to inspire both beginners and advanced musicians. Drawing on my understanding of the challenges of learning music, I have created a platform that brings together interactive lessons, professional guidance, and the joy of playing.
In addition to my work as founder and teacher, I regularly perform as a live musician, composer, and arranger. My goal is to connect tradition with innovation – bringing a fresh breeze into the music scene.
I have always been fascinated by the piano’s versatility. It is both an excellent solo and accompanying instrument. Whether it’s a piano sonata, jazz improvisation, or accompanying a singer, few instruments are as versatile as the piano.
Moreover, the piano has an exceptionally wide range of 88 keys – 7 ¼ octaves – covering almost the entire spectrum of orchestral music. It allows musicians to play both very low and very high notes, which most other instruments cannot achieve.
