ON-LINE! Tin Whistle (Penny Whistle, Irish Whistle) lessons

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 58.48 $ /h

Tin Whistle .... the Irish / Celtic instrument par excellence. The instrument with the special tone.
I offer a solid introduction for beginners, reveal "tricks of the trade", and explain the fundamental differences to how to play the flute.
The Irish whistle is certainly not the cheap "fun instrument" that it is often viewed as. Inexpensive yes, but by no means cheap.

About Me

I am a musician by nature, have lived and worked on / off in the UK for 45 years and have over 35 years of experience teaching music, languages and naturopathy. I studied piano and conducting, as a minor subject, recorder and other keyboard instruments, as well as musicology.
My special interest (my specialty) is the harmonium and the American Pump Organ. I also restore these instruments and use them to perform regularly here in Wales.
a teaching method depends on the level of knowledge and expectations of my pupils and students.
At the moment my focus is on adults who want to use the current situation to improve their knowledge online. I am also happy to take older children and young people from about 12 years.

Education

Abitur 1983, 1985-1990 HfM Detmold, 1991 founding of our own publishing house, afterwards further education in naturopathy in Switzerland. Regular concert appearances since the late 1970s, as a soloist or as an accompanist.

Experience / Qualifications

I passed my O-Levels in London in 1979, then graduated from high school in 1983 with advanced courses in German and English, then studied music at the HfM Detmold. Since my school days I have performed regularly, been successful in competitions and have taught. I also sent my own students to competitions and prepared many of them for the entrance exams to various universities. I am married to a British musician (French horn, ocarina, flute, all flutes and composition). After living in London in the 1990s, we moved to Wales in 2008. We live with our two children in one of the most beautiful parts of Wales, the "Valleys". Here we work out our own concert programs, research and publish our own grades and teach. My "hobby" is Irish and Celtic music, with which I also make buske = street music. We are happy about contacts to Germany and think that online teaching has a great future.

ON-LINE! Block flute, ocarina, tin whistle, saxonet, keyboard, harmonium

58.48 $ /h

We offer online lessons via Zoom for adults and older children (from approx. 12/13 years) for well-known and not so well-known instruments like ocarina (known from "Zelda"), the Irish / Celtic tin whistle, or the clarineau, also often called saxonet or children's clarinet. With the block flutes we offer all instruments from soprano to bass. In the field of keyboard instruments, we offer keyboard / piano and harmonium / pedal organ.
We are musicians by nature and are happy to convey music in addition to our concert activities.

ON-LINE! Block flutes in C & F, soprano, alto, tenor and bass in the bass clef,

58.48 $ /h

We offer block flute lessons for adults and children.
The block flute is not only the traditional entry-level instrument, but a full member of the woodwind instrument family. Composers of the 16th and 17th centuries have written well-known works for the soprano flute. In the late 17th and 18th century. the alto flute was "the" instrument for composers like Bach, Haendel, Vivaldi and many more.
For the "easy" entry into the world of music with little fingers, the soprano flute is ideal, adults can start immediately with the larger alto flute (in F, but don't panic, that's "normal").
For adults who would like to stick to the C-flute, but find the soprano "too small", the tenor offers a wonderful deep and warm tone.
Many alto flute players will sooner or later develop an interest in the bass flute. It has a deep, mysterious, deep sound. Unfortunately, many players then rely on the fact that the bass part is / will be transferred into the treble clef, as they cannot read the bass clef. For these players we offer bass clef reading as a workshop.
We offer another workshop "Celtic playing on the block flute", in which we show, explain and work out the differences between traditional and Celtic playing styles with the student / participant.

Welcome to my online Piano Class.
I am Maria, and I will happily help you achieve your musical goals, from zero to the top.
I love all student levels, but only towards the CLASSICAL piano, of any eras' works and composers.
Don't be afraid, my lesson is human-friendly 😊
Everything goes step by step! Outside the lesson time, I send you lots of short videos to support your practice through the week.

As each student is different, I focus on each ones' needs and I am always creative in helping you learn through the simplest ways - "if it's easy, it's correct", that's my motto!
My greatest happiness is to watch my students grow, overcome any limit and expand in full potential!

As a result, many of my students have won top prizes at major international competitions, as the IBLA Grand Prize, the Spoleto International Piano Competition, the Bach au Jazz (Lilia Boyadjieva) International Piano Competition and many others. And also, at renown online competitions, as The Royal, the IYMC, the Forte Academy, and many-many others.
So, in case you need a competition or exam preparation, here you are at the right place!
I will help you discover the advanced piano technique, and the ways to achieve your best musical interpretation. Also, very important, I'll help you understand and approach each composers' unique style, and, also, secure your concert / stage presence, with simple and effective solutions for memorisation and control.

I am a very proud piano teacher, as on Jan 11 2026 four young students of mine were awarded by the renown American Competition "The Royal Foundation" and were invited and performed at a Gala at the Carnegie Hall in New York City! Also, these kids were invited to participate to the Juilliard School festival, with masterclass and lessons, a fabulous chance and experience that I wish all young pianists could have!

On Sept 1st 2024 three awarded students of mine were invited to perform at The DiMenna Classical Centre of Music in Manhattan, from another American competition, the International Youth Music Competition.

I wish I can always bring such great opportunities and successes to all of my "piano kids"!

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Turkish reed flute is an essential instrument of Turkish Classcial Music. It has a deep and dense culture dating from 13. century around. If you want to learn about how to perform it you first need a teacher educated by masters on this field. As of many teachers you can find online but you make sure that not every tutor meets with traditional style.
Solfege and method are inseperable parts of the lessons. So for beginners and intermediate students must follow a compotent tutor to learn about the way of classic form.

You will feel significant progress in singing, regardless of your age or ability. But I'm not selling a magic pill. Singing is just a matter of coordinating the muscles in your throat. So all you need to do is train them properly, and I will help you with that.

Lessons with me are highly tailored to the individual. We will work on your specific issues and strive to achieve a smooth performance of the songs you want to be able to sing. I specialize in Pop, Jazz, and Musical styles, but if you have a special request, I will see what I can do.

In addition to 1-on-1 online lessons, you will have access to a large number of educational resources that I have created for my students over the years: exercises, games, sheet music, song guides and articles.
