Liliana Ruth Iciksonas
I was born in Córdoba Capital.
Motivated by a family milestone in which my zeide (grandfather) gave my bobe (grandmother) a beautiful piano as a wedding gift and according to what his children say in an amateur way, he sang while she played it... also by chance to some neighbors to play the recorder, at the age of 6 I began to study this last instrument with a private teacher.
At the age of 19 I graduated as a "Flute Teacher" and at 23 years old with a "Graduate in Psychology".
The following years I dedicated myself to perfecting myself by taking classes with great teachers and studying in important conservatories and universities, giving concerts and enriching myself with other cultures in countries such as Israel, Belgium, Austria, the United States (where I lived for some years), Hungary, Spain, Later I graduated as a Mindfulness Teacher.
Flute and Recorder Lessons
(Online and In-Person)
Would you like to learn to play in a waycalm and safe?
With a solid professional and personal training rich in countries, cultures and languages, for more than 20 years I have used my experience and knowledge creating a unique teaching method, proposing develop the student's potential and capacity so that from within they "connect with music" with great pleasure and taste.
I use an approach applied to transverse flute and recorder classes based on a work methodologythat integrates tools of music and Mindfulness to better address the objectives presented, either during the first classes emit a clean sound until how to overcome stage fright to face the audience calmly and safely at a concert or audition.
My challenge is to awaken and maintain the musical interest and passion that the student carries inside. I invite you to walk this wonderful path together…

FREQUENT QUESTIONS....
Is it necessary to know music to learn to play the recorder or the transverse flute?
Definitely, anyone can learn to play the recorder and/or the transverse flute without having prior knowledge of music or the recorder or transverse flute.
But... is anyone capable of playing?
Absolutely all people with the will to do so, especially those who are willing to maintain a frequent study routine. They can learn from children to older adults.
Is it necessary to have your own transverse flute to start?
It is NOT necessary to have your own instrument to take the first classes since I will lend you one in person during them. I also advise you on the purchase of the instrument.
What frequency is recommended to take classes?
In my teaching experience, when encountering students “from time to time” whether biweekly or monthly, it was not given the possibility of carrying out adequate follow-up with them, being difficult to achieve the desired goals. Taking into account that the teacher is a tool to acquire the knowledge expected by the student, it is recommended that the frequency of meeting between them be weekly.
Is playing the flute complicated?
It is important to keep in mind that playing any musical instrument is neither easy nor complicated. On the transverse flute, the first few months it is difficult to achieve a “clean” sound (no air or sound with air can be heard), butOnce this is overcome, it gives great pleasure to touch it... for as long as it is... even for a lifetime...
