    Viola lessons - discover the rich, warm sound - from beginner to advaced students
    The viola, with its rich, mellow tone and deeply expressive character, offers a musical experience unlike any other. Whether you are a teenager discovering the instrument for the first time, or an adult returning to music with renewed curiosity, my viola lessons offer a space to grow both musically and personally. In these lessons, you will not only explore the viola’s warm and expressive voice, but also cultivate self-awareness through mindful posture, body awareness techniques, and focused listening. Learning to play the viola well requires attention to the body as much as to the instrument, and together we will create a practice that encourages both physical ease and musical sensitivity. Lessons are tailored to individual needs and goals, including: • Preparation for exams or auditions • Building or refining technique • Expanding musical expression through repertoire and improvisation In addition to one-on-one instruction, we will also make music together — exploring duets to deepen your sense of musical connection and communication. Whether your aim is to perform, to progress, or simply to enjoy the intimate sound of the viola, these lessons offer a supportive and inspiring environment in which to develop your skills. For more information please get in touch.

    Violin + Viola for Adults and for band / Learn to play violin and viola for adult beginners and those returning to music, including in the band
    Violin and viola learning for adult beginners and returning players or in the band SEE ENGLISH BELOW I have been teaching adult beginners and intermediates to play the violin and viola for 10 years. The focus is very different. One person would like to find relaxation in playing the violin. Another would like to be able to play a certain piece because he likes it. A third has picked up the violin again after a long time. I have had violin lessons for > 10 years and am currently studying viola at the Conservatory of Bolzano. I have 10 years of teaching experience. I teach classical and electric violin, always tailored to the student. The lessons can also be carried out using the Suzuki method. Due to my band experience with violin/viola, I am also the contact person if you play violin in a band.

    Private Violin Lessons and Tutoring for All Ages and Levels
    This class is for anyone interested starting learning or gaining new insights to playing the violin. Depending on the student's final goal we adjust the repertoire and skills that are needed for obtaining the goal. As a musician I am inspired by many styles of playing, with classical music and Scandinavian folk being my main focus. My goal as a teacher is to keep and increase the students love for music as well as offer necessary and appropriate skills to keep the student challenged.
