About Me
Hello! My name is Nico, a cellist originally from Indonesia, currently living in the Netherlands. I started playing the cello when I was 14, and from that moment on, the instrument has become an essential part of my life.
For many years, I've been actively performing as a soloist, collaborating with fantastic musicians and playing repertoire that moves both me and the audience. More information about my work, recordings, and upcoming projects can be found at
Throughout my musical journey, I've had the privilege of learning from inspiring teachers and artists who have shaped not only my technique but also my artistic voice. All that knowledge and inspiration now form the foundation of my lessons—a combination of solid technique and expressive musicality in every lesson.
Whether exploring the depths of Bach's suites or bringing new contemporary works to life, I approach each piece with curiosity, joy, and deep respect for the music.
I'm passionate, patient, and always eager to help you grow both technically and creatively on the cello. My goal is to make lessons engaging, meaningful, and tailored to your personal musical development.
I hope to meet you soon and look forward to making beautiful music together! 🎻😊
