Louna Dekker Flute Lessons
About
In addition to being a professional flutist in NYC, playing on Broadway and in various ensembles in classical and experimental music, I have a private studio and am open to taking on more students, whether you are playing at an undergraduate level, or looking to add the flute to your growing family of instruments or just starting out and seeking a strong and stress free foundation in breath control, sound production and finger technique. I teach in the French flute school tradition, which emphasizes beautiful, colorful flute tone production.
I love getting to know my student's artistic motivations and goals and helping them develop the skills to realize them. My lessons are set up as dialogues, where we develop creative solutions together. In this way I am always looking to help my students develop their own voice and independence as a player.
