Cheryl Blake

I studied Music & Music Technology at Keele University specialising in performance. Since then, I have continued to perform and learn from different tutors and performers including Philippa Davies, Ian Clarke and Wissam Boustany. Amongst many performance highlights have included being a member of the LPO Open Ear Orchestra performing at the Royal Festival Hall, London. I am also a percussionist specialising in Brazilian percussion and love to share the wide breadth of Brazilian music that exists for flute with students - in particular, choro.

I take a friendly, relaxed approach to flute lessons, taking a students musical preferences into account from pop to latin, classical to jazz. Exams can be taken, but certainly aren't an essential part of learning.

I am always keen to install a creative confidence in her students and whilst ensuring correct technical skills, aims to ensure students learn in a safe, supportive environment. During Covid-19, lessons are available via Zoom etc.
