Tuition is offered to adults and children as young as 10 years old. I teach complete beginners aswell as established pipers interested in improving their performance.

I’m from Aragón in North-East Spain, though I’ve been living in Scotland since 2001. I picked up my first whistle at 15 and my first 's jew's harp slightly earlier. I also play Spanish and Swedish bagpipes, flute, willow pipe and recorder (to various degrees of ability!)
I played in some local bands in my hometown (Zaragoza) before moving to Scotland. While living in Brechin, Angus, I spent four years as Folk and Traditional Music co-ordinator for the Brechin Arts Festival. I play regularly at sessions in Tayside. I play mainly a mixture of Scottish, Spanish, Nordic and Irish music.

Tin Whistle and Wooden Flute

I teach traditional Scottish and Irish music to an advanced level. As well as learning tunes, my teaching focuses on learning and improving the techniques (phrasing, ornamentation etc) required to play a traditional tune in a confident, accomplished manner.
