Balinese Flute Lessons
Balinese Flute Lessons are available for guests staying at Murni’s Houses & Spa.
No experience is necessary. Lessons are tailor-made.
The Balinese Flute called a suling is a high-pitched flute, difficult to hear above the noise, but essential for the Balinese gamelan orchestra. It is played using a circular breathing technique to produce a constant tone. The player breathes in through his nose and stores the air in his cheeks while blowing air into the instrument.
The flautist is one of the best suling players in the world and lives in Ubud. He performs at countless concerts in Bali and abroad – Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Tokyo, Paris, Washington DC and the USA. He was chosen to entertain the IMF and G20 delegates at their annual meetings in Bali.
He composes and first started making CDS over 11 years ago and has his own recording studio.
We play his music in Tamarind Spa and sell his CDs on line and at the Spa. Here is a song from one of his CDs.
He enjoys teaching and makes all his own flutes.
