About Vicki Nurre, Piano and flute lessons

Welcome to my page! I'm so glad you are thinking about flute or piano lessons! About me: I've been teaching piano and flute for about 50 years, beginner through advanced, including at the University of Kansas. I have a BM in music composition (minors in flute and piano) and a MM in flute performance. In addition to teaching, I am an accompanist/assistant conductor for the award winning Columbia Choirs of Metropolitan Seattle. My book, "Artistic Accompanying" is available at Amazon. My many years in music have afforded me as many opportunities, from performing in chamber music ensembles, orchestras, bands, and in competitions. Piano lessons focus on learning to play in the classical style, sight-reading, theory, and ear training. Repertoire is primarily classical. Flute instruction focuses on creating a beautiful tone, supple technique, sight-reading, theory, and ear training. Repertoire is primarily classical. I often work with students, however, to help prepare them for their solo/ensemble pieces for school, as well as auditions. For both piano and flute instruction, I use many materials from the Royal Conservatory of Music (Canada), and encourage students to be involved with the graded assessments that they offer. You can find out more about the Royal Conservatory program by googling "The Royal Conservatory." Instruction right now is virtual, via Zoom. I do have limited availability at my home studio.

Have been learning with Mrs. Vicki over couple months. Very enjoyable experience with her. I’m an adult with slow progress but she is always patient with me and knows how to push a bit me forward. It has been an enjoyable journey!

Vicki has been a great instructor for both piano and flute. She always listened to my requests, and made sure the environment was comfortable. She did especially well at being flexible to teach and coach whatever specific thing I wanted to work on at the time of the lesson. I recommend her for all people looking for a flute or piano instructor.
