About Me

The most interesting and important part of musical experience is teaching. For me it's a process a lot of fun and interesting discoveries.

My way of teaching is based on academic oboe school traditions but also sometimes with modern solutions. It's important for me to find a individual way of oboe learning for each pupil.

''Once upon a time there was a breath. Lighter than a whisper, it melted into the wind, lamenting that it was never heard...''

But before continuing this story, a little introduction is in order.
🙋🏻‍♀️ | Hi ! I'm Lisa and I study clarinet at the Lucerne University of Music.
🎶 | But beyond the pleasure of playing on stage, alone or in a group, I love to make my passion known and allow other people to become familiar with my instrument.
👩🏻‍🏫 | For a few years, I have been teaching the clarinet online and at the music school of Crans-Montana.
But back to the story.

“...One day, he heard in the distance the chords of a guitar accompanying a joyful and magical song. From that day on, the little breath decided to become music. So he let himself be carried away by the wind, which deposited him next to a clarinet. Curious, the breath slipped into the mouthpiece and slid down to the pavilion. It was fun, a bit like a slide...''

But what is a clarinet? Let's take a short break in history to clear up this point.
📖 | The clarinet is a wind instrument of the woodwind family. It is made of ebony and has 18 keys that allow the musician to play all the notes.
🎤 | It is the instrument closest to the human voice. Indeed, it can sound very loud or very soft, very high or very low and has a wide variety of sounds.
🌬 | To make a sound with his clarinet, the musician blows into the mouthpiece and vibrates the reed. A bit like when you make a blade of grass hiss by blowing on it.
Let's see how our breath is doing.

“... He then gathered all his strength and blew a big blow into the beak. Nope ! It didn't seem like the right method. He then tried to tap on the reed and slipped through the holes and the keys. Until, finally, the breath becomes a melody...''

Turn your breath into music too!
🎺 | Playing a musical instrument will allow you to express your creativity and relax while developing your brain. Plus, seeing your progress will make you proud and gain self-confidence.
💡 | The clarinet is a practical instrument. Indeed, it disassembles into 5 parts that you can store in a small box and take with you everywhere!
🇨🇭 | In Switzerland, there are many harmonies and other ensembles where the clarinet has a prominent place. You will therefore be able, as soon as you have mastered the basics, to meet lots of new people with whom to share your passion.
Let's finish the story.

“...Other breaths, strings and beats, impressed by the beauty of the melody, found himself a musical instrument too. This is how the 1st orchestra was born!

I am available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) in Valais and during the week in Lucerne.

Do you want to learn to play the flute? Or have you been playing for a few years and want to go one step further with your instrument?

The course is open to both beginners and advanced learners.
I have a classical education and can pass on the basics of this music. But the repertoire is not limited in classical music: if you feel like playing improvisation, jazz, folk, film or world music, you can do it in this course too.
