individual Tuning-in Retreat

I offer individual retreats for TUNING-IN, a practice of listening and mindfulness that I developed, as well as for SONIC PILGRIMAGE – walks through the countryside focused on listening and mindfulness. This program is aimed at professional artists as well as anyone else who feels drawn to it, to help them reconnect with their artistic and creative source through nature, listening, and perception.
Contact me, if you want to find out more.

private flute lessons

From my perspective, teaching an instrument goes far beyond the transfer of technical knowledge. It involves patience, flexibility, and the ability to recognize and nurture each student’s unique, often hidden, potential. Alongside developing technique, tone, scales, and expanding the repertoire, I place great emphasis on fostering a deeper understanding of music and the intentions behind it.
I believe these elements are essential for becoming a confident, self-aware, and expressive musician. For me, making music is about building a genuine connection with your instrument, trusting yourself and your abilities, and, above all, experiencing the joy of making music.

Soundpainting is the universal multidisciplinary live composing sign language for musicians, actors, dancers, and visual Artists. Presently (2021) the language comprises more than 1500 gestures that are signed by the Soundpainter (composer) to indicate the type of material desired of the performers. The creation of the composition is realized, by the Soundpainter, through the parameters of each set of signed gestures. The Soundpainting language was created by Walter Thompson in Woodstock, New York in 1974.
