Discovering the music within you

Orpheus with his lute made trees,
And the mountain tops that freeze,
Bow themselves when he did sing:

To his music plants and flowers
Ever sprung; as sun and showers
There had made a lasting spring…

W. Shakespeare, “Henry VIII”, 1623

Welcome!

I'm delighted to see you on my studio's page! For more than 10 years, my studio has been a place where I help adults and children find their own path in music.

An individual approach, learning with pleasure, the music you love, a space for self-expression free of criticism and pressure, moving at your own pace. For those who wish — a deeper dive into the world of emotions and their connection to sound and self-expression.

Teaching Principles

I

Enjoying the playing and the lessons

I believe that learning and playing without pleasure give the student little and drain motivation. There is so much beauty in music!

II

Serving your goals

Help with your specific request and playing the music you love — not coercion from the teacher

III

A space for self-expression

A place with no criticism and no pressure. You can be yourself and play freely

IV

Professionalism

Teaching musical technique and knowledge at a high level, so that you can play what you love.
