Acerca de mí

Hi, my name is Lih and I have been playing cello for over 40 years! With a background in classical music - my career has taken me to stages all over the world.
Cello/loopstation work

As a performer, I've been a cellist who has been sought after for her Loop station cello performances. I use various pedals and effects to create pieces that explore the full vocal and percussive range of the cello, combining intricately shifting textures, cinematic orchestration with soundscape. I work with a large palette that shifts effortlessly between modern classical, krautrock, sonic environment and electronica. I've created and performed live soundtracks for dance theatre and new circus productions, and toured all over the world, playing venues such as The Barbican ( London), Queens Hall Southbank (London), Apollo Theatre (London) Stanisklavsky Theatre for Bolshoi Danceinversion festival ( Moscow), La Philharmonie and La Seine Musicale (Paris), Zorlu Arts Centre (Istanbul), SESC theatre (Sao Paulo), and working with the famous choreographer Yan Li Ping to create the Chinese/Berlin fusion opera ‘Dynamic Huang Shang’.

I also toured internationally with bands such as Agnes Obel, Raz O’hara, Die Wilde Jagd and Federico Albanese.

The hours are designed according to your musical interests. Since each person has his or her own individual approach to music, it is logical and, in my experience, more effective to work with this in a specific way. So, instead of a rigid curriculum in which you lose interest in a short time, I would like to support you in achieving your personal plans and discovering musical possibilities!

Depending on your interests, motivation, previous knowledge and musical taste, the following focal points are coordinated:
Technique (tone formation, breathing, approach, intonation, finger technique, etc.), ear training, sense of rhythm, improvisation, note reading, music theory.

The focus is all about enjoying the music. Its naver late to learn.

Cello lessons for all ages, levels, and styles.
No previous knowledge of music is required.

In my lessons, I offer you a pleasant and effective way to connect your body and mind with the cello. You'll quickly learn how to resolve a difficult passage, identify the cause of a problem, clarify questions about music theory, and integrate all of this into your playing with a sense of physical ease—so that you feel comfortable and can enjoy the music you create.

If you are just starting out on the cello, this will be your starting point and foundation to get you started.
And if you already have experience, my lessons will serve as a deepening experience and help you incorporate new elements into your playing that will make making music easier.

It's a great joy for me to accompany each of my students on their journey of learning this wonderful instrument. I give my best in every moment and approach each student individually – up to the level you wish to achieve.

✨ I look forward to getting to know you and starting this musical journey together!

Dear music lover,

As an experienced and certified cellist / orchestra musician from Lisboa, Portugal, with several years of teaching, I accompany children, beginners, adults and advanced students into their musical dream and future.

I adapt myself individually to the wishes and needs of my students.
My focus is not only the technichs and motor skills of the instrumental playing, but always trying to convey musical relationships.

The motivation and enthusiasm of my students always come on the first plan.
I bring all my experience and knowledge to my lessons.

In my teaching I also develop skills such as musical hearing and memory, coordination, concentration, rhythm, basics of music theory and improvisation.

The lessons can take place at my place in Neuköln (friedelstr) or at yours (+ 10€ for go and back). Zoom/Skype lessons are also a possibility.
Languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese and little bit of German.

Ps1: I have a second cello at my place so you don't need to carry your all the way on your back.

If you're interested in learning music production, or are already producing and need to start or deepen your knowledge of mixing and/or mastering, look no further!

I'm giving personalised lessons based on your prior knowledge and tailored to your goals - Ideally we'll work in class on a project that you're already working on, to immediately apply practically and effectively the tools that we'll be diving into. If you don't have a current project, we'll start one together.

All levels welcome, from beginners giving their first steps, intermediates looking to go further and advanced users who want to sharpen and fine tune their skills.

This class introduces the core concepts of film scoring and how music shapes story, emotion, and narrative in film and television. Students will learn how to support and move images through music, exploring timing, mood, theme, and structure. Lessons are tailored to each student’s interests and level, from complete beginners to advanced composers, and can focus on electronic, orchestral, or hybrid approaches.

The course also includes analysis and deconstruction of existing film scores to understand compositional techniques and storytelling strategies. Students will learn how to set up and optimize their digital audio workstation for film scoring, define personal creative goals, and work with industry-standard orchestral sample libraries and synthesizers such as Spitfire Audio, Orchestral Tools, and Cinematic Studio Series. Films with sound design and no music can be provided for hands-on scoring exercises, enabling practical experience working directly to picture.
