I'm a professional harpist from France, passionate about the harp since I'm a child, it would be a pleasure to share and help you to learn more about this beautiful instrument.
I taught 8 years when I was living in Belgium and I always loved sharing my knowledge about the harp with my student. I like the lessons to be enjoyable by a fun and engaging way in order to make my students achieve their goals, and build a strong basis to help them grow and expand their musicality.

About Me

French-born harpist Louise is emerging as an engaging performer in both her native France and New York City. She has won awards and has participated in several international competitions (Rovere d'Oro, Concours Français de la Harpe, USA International Harp Competition). In past seasons, she has performed at the Lincoln Center in New York and was invited to play with the United Nations Orchestra. Louise has also performed across Europe (France, Germany, Netherlands, Germany, UK, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain) with the Brussel Chamber Orchestra, National Police Orchestra of France or at the Royal Opera of Liege and on Josh Groban’s live tour in 2016. From 2011-2015 she was invited as the principal harpist to the Aurora Festival in Sweden, and during the 2014-15 season, she performed in New Delhi through the Neemrana Music Foundation. Since October 2018, she is a substitute musician at The Metropolitan Opera in New York.

An enthusiastic collaborator, Louise has worked with multiple artists across a number of disciplines, including Jialba (Belgian visual artist), Louise Ros (Belgian photographer), Rafael Leloup, and Romain Zante (both LA-based Belgian composers). She is currently developing a new, interdisciplinary recital program, Glass Ceiling. A collaborative performance featuring two dancers (Shay Bland & Scott Willits from the Alvin Ailey Company and Elisa Monte Dance Company), Glass Ceiling is a story told through 3 bodies, illustrating the physical and psychological violence inflicted upon women experiencing intimate partner violence.

She studied with Emmanuel Ceysson at the New School (Mannes College of Performing Arts, New York) on full scholarship, at Ecole Normale Alfred Cortot with Emmanuel Ceysson in Paris and at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel with Jana Bouskova. Louise also worked and received the support from David Watkins in England (Guildhall School of Music in London), Chantal Mathieu (Haute Ecole de Musique de Lausanne), Park Stickney (Conservatoire National Superieur de Musique de Lyon) and Beatrice Guillermin (Conservatoire de Saint-Maur). She has studied chamber music with Denis Bouriakov (principal flutist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra), Alexander Zemtsov (Guildhall School of Music in London and Vienna Konservatorium) and Samuel Coles (principal flutist of the Philharmonia Orchestra in London).

I'm a professional harpist who graduated from Yale University with a B.A. in Music with extensive teaching experience in the United States and Belgium. I am offering harp and music theory lessons to students of all backgrounds, levels, and ages.

I am currently in the process of completing my Doctor of Musical Arts at the CUNY Graduate Center. I hope to transfer the skills and knowledge I have obtained from working with some of the most renowned teachers to my own students.

I offer two tracks for piano lessons:
Bee-Thovens - where students learn to read music by composing their own songs and Buzzin' Bees, where we dive right into note reading and exploring the classics.

In my Bee-Strings classes, I take the same approaches with my guitar and ukulele students.

My general music classes - The Bee Hive, for pre-k 3, pre-k4, kindergarten, first and second-grade classes, include playing percussion instruments, singing and movement. We even incorporate the keyboard and ukulele.

I have more than 10 years of experience as a clarinet teacher with students from an early age and with no previous musical knowledge. I also give musical initiation classes to children from 4 years old, for them I like fun classes where they learn by playing, dancing and singing.

Exploring Your Singing Voice!!!

It is my belief that anyone can sing as the body is built to speak and sing. So if you or your child loves to sing, it is never too late nor too early to learn one's self-expression through singing.

I work with people of all ages from beginners, hobbyists, the curious, and to everyone in between who yearns to explore their singing voices.

Lessons are tailored for each individual depending on their level and goals for singing.

My lessons cover Vocal Function/Technique, Basic Music Theory, and learning and performing a song.

The Vocal Technique I teach is grounded in the principles of Functional Singing and Somatic Voicework TM The LoVetri Method. Vocal technique which covers Posture, Breathing, Body and Vocal Warm-ups, and Vocal Exercises prepares the body to sing freely, effortlessly, and powerfully. It facilitates awareness of mind, body, and breath connection which promotes freedom of expression and brings forth the joy of singing

Hi! my lessons focus on building solid violin skills in a clear, supportive way. Students learn proper technique, posture, tone production, and music reading while developing good practice habits from the start. Lessons are structured but flexible, allowing each student to progress at a pace that makes sense for them.
I work with beginners and continuing students, tailoring each lesson to individual goals whether that’s improving technique, preparing for school orchestra, or simply learning to play with more confidence. The emphasis is on steady progress, consistency, and making the learning process approachable and rewarding.
Lessons include technical exercises, repertoire, and practical strategies students can use when practicing on their own.
