About Me

Hi! My name is Veda, and I am a professional flutist located in Carpentersville, IL. I hold a master's degree in concert performance and music education from the Saint-Petersburg state Conservatory. I am a laureate of multiple international competitions: • Master prize and best Bach performance special award, Bach international music competition, London, November 2024 • Grand Prix in the category “Contemporary music” and special prize for excellent technique, “UK International Music competition” London, February 2023 • 1st place, “Kingdom art stars” competition, London, February 2021. I have performed solo, in ensembles and in orchestras for the last 7 years. I have given private lessons to students of all ages and skill level for the past 5 years. I also have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, which gives me unique insight specifically into teaching strategies. I am ready to teach people of all ages and skill level. Whether you are playing your first notes, learning the flute part for middle school or high school band, preparing for a competition or for an audition into a music school, or picking up the instrument after many years-I am happy to help share my knowledge and love for the flute with you!
