Yelian was presented to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2011 at an exclusive reception for outstanding Australians and again in 2013 for a private performance with the Queen and her Commonwealth guests at the Buckingham Palace."

Experience

- What kind of experience do you have?

I am not somebody you should contact if you don`t want to aim for personal success on the cello.

I, like you, want to spend my time well - which is why I`m enthusiastic about how I am able to help you.

This means I want to be flexible in my approach with students.

While there`s no substitute for intelligent, diligent work and a regular schedule with your teacher, learning the cello is as much dependant on the student as it is on the balance of seeking opportunities to perform, setting goals, gaining feedback and self-reflection.

Whether you are preparing for exams, A-Levels, University and College auditions, competitions and masterclasses or just want a pair of ears to keep you in a motivated condition for your next performance, I can help you give meaning and direction to your progress.

If you believe I`m describing you, and whether you want regular lessons or just when you need it, leave me a message via the contact page.
