About Me

Hi, I am Orí, a lute and guitar player from Israel, living in Switzerland. I have been performing with ensembles and as a soloist all over the world. I have been teaching lute and guitar for many years in many different levels. I put emphasis on self-directed learning, the student dictates what they want to learn and the pace that is comfortable for them. I'm there to support and give guidance. I have recently started a course in Gestalt-therapy, this is perhaps less relevant, but it is important for me, and I believe it helps me in my approach to teaching and music-making alike. looking forward to getting to know you.

I am singer, classically trained with a main focus in early music and voice embodiment. I also studied recorder, clarinet and musicology.

As a teacher and performer, I focus on a joyful, healthy and technically skilled way of singing. I focus not only on the sound production, but also on body posture, relaxation and organic movement. An happy and relaxed body creates a beautiful, natural and relaxed sound.
We choose the repertoire together and work together towards developing your voice, your expressivity, text and style interpretation at your fullest potential.

I have experience teaching several music genres, from classical, jazz, pop, folk music and even extended vocal techniques like growls. I am quite open to the students requests and always willing to research deeper and expand my vocal vocabulary.

Singing is a vulnerable, intimate and also communal act. Sadly, our modern world has mystified it into the sphere of the "born-talent" ideal, which often scares people from even trying to sing. I find this phenomena a cruel and exclusivist perspective on singing.

I consider singing an universal right, and we should all be unashamed of singing, be it in your bathtub, while walking on the street, in a dinner with friends, or in the next open stage at your local bar.

We all have the capacity and the right to sing.
If anybody has told you that you can't sing, they were wrong. Like any skill, you can learn it.
And if you sing, you, your body, and your soul will be happier.

One of my students once said: "You come for a singing lesson and you discover something new about who you are". I think that would summarize well the space I try to create in my lessons.

In my career, my life is frozen, my Lust, my Motivation, and my Ratschläge, my life is erroneous. Even though the settings are individual and personal, the programs are different.

Since I have been teaching violin and music, not a day has gone by without me saying to myself that motivation and pleasure are the greatest drivers of learning. This is why I always favor a relaxed and work-friendly atmosphere during my classes. Technique is of course of great importance to me.
I teach musical initiation, music theory and the viola which I practiced in chamber music and of course the violin, my main instrument with which I perform in several orchestras and ensembles.

As a violinist for 21 years now, 12 years at the conservatory and 9 years as a private teacher, I offer quality lessons adapted to your level. We'll focus on technique (scales, etudes) but we'll also look at a few tricks to improve your playing.
It's advisable to do some music theory on the side to be able to read notes and rhythm properly. I can help you with that too.
I'm very patient and gentle. I can come to your place, but I can also give lessons by videoconference.

I offer lessons in Classical music theory at all levels - Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.
Whether you're struggling with the basics, or want to take what you already know to the next level, I'll adapt our lessons to your needs and guide you through what you need to make it.

Trained in Classical and Early music, and having studied performance in harpsichord, organ, piano, classical and electric guitar, I've also studied chamber music composition and electroacoustic composition. A passionate learner myself, I have recently graduated with a Masters from the Hochschule für Musik Basel in Specialized Performance (Improvisation). These diverse experiences are necessarily integrated into what I teach and how.

In my theory classes we’ll look at the fundamentals of rhythm, pitch, solfège, intervals, key signatures, cadences, and other important groundwork whose rigorous study we can then apply to real-life examples of music, helping you acquire a sharper analytical ear.

I look forward to working out a comprehensive approach to improving your music theory skills, please feel free to get in touch!

Flute lessons with me are about much more than just technique. Everyone learns differently, so I adapt each lesson individually, creating a relaxed and motivating atmosphere. Together we will discover, explore, and be creative – while always keeping the joy of music at the center.
Lessons are open to both children and adults. My goal is simple: that you come to every lesson with a smile and develop a true love for music.
