The intesive masterclass with Ory was exactly what I was looking for. Very intense five days brought me really good results. Ory is a very creative, highly trained professional flutist and teacher. For me personally, it was a time of fantastic work, refreshing the technique and refining the details. If you have time, come to Vienna, learn a lot, improve your playing and meet a fantastic artist and teacher!!! Keep it up Ory !!! Thanks a lot!!! Wiesiek

  I have recently completed a 3 session warm-up course with Ory. I highly recommend this course. He provided me with multiple exercises to improve my tone production and the flexibility of my embouchure, and dynamics flexibility. The exercises are well structured, clearly explained and easy to implement into regular practice sessions following the course. Ory is extremely kind and patient, responsive to the student's individual needs. Many thanks, Ory.

  Ory’s intensive warm-up routine course is just that, “intensive”. He covers all of the basics of tone and technique in unique ways that have resulted in marked improvement in my confidence and my ability to consistently get the sound I’m looking for. Ory’s style of teaching is informal and encouraging. I urge any flutist interested in improving their performance to take this course. As a bonus, his fee is very reasonable.

  I had the pleasure to work with Ory Schneor for three days which was for me the right amount of time to get some new ideas and explore new aspects of my flute playing. After a master's degree in flute I started to feel a bit stuck in my own routine and was never a hundred percent happy with my sound when playing quiet phrases. Ory was the first teacher in years who instructed and encouraged me to change my embouchure which is probably one of the biggest challenges. After one week with the new routine I feel more comfortable than ever with my sound and notice significant improvements in my high register as well as tonguing. Best investment in myself, thank you Ory!

  “My private Master class with Ory was a wonderful experience. I have been dreaming about taking a class with him ever since I first saw his advertisements on the flute forum. Ory was easy going and flexible. He was very friendly, personable and encouraging. He was very clear about what I need to work on and why, and I felt like a lot was accomplished in a short time. Our three hours each day seemed to disappear very fast. Next time I will plan for a few more days! Also, getting around on the underground and bus system in Vienna is very easy.”

  I did a 5 days course with Ory, and it was really nice to work on technical aspects with him. The fact that the classes were so long and so many days in a row helped me to really integrate what he asked as natural way of playing. The fact that I was able to internalise his recommendations and how it made me feel physically helped me to go quickly back in shape (like 30 min) after having several days only playing piccolo, and this was always an issue before. I would definitely recommend his masterclass, doing it as many days as possible!

  Ory is at least as skilled as a flute teacher as he is a flutist! 3 days of intensive lessons together were the inspiration I needed. Ory's explanations were particularly clear and effective, starting from a deep knowledge of the basic techniques of playing the flute. I was also impressed by the patience, focus and attention to detail during the lessons. At the end of the 3 days of intensive course, I was already able to apply and integrate the new ideas on the repertoire, also having a study plan to take home. If you feel the need to take a step forward in playing the flute, I highly recommend Ory Schneor’s class! Vlad Colar

  I have been following Ory Schneors page since quite a while. I have red his articles on technical subjects, in my opinion they are very good writings, watching his performances that I find very authentic to every style he plays in. And finally the time has come that i could actually book a private Masterclass with him. I took a 4 days long intensive Masterclass which exactly I was looking for, someone who only teach me for 2-3 hours a day. That is what I love. There is so little that you can do in only one hour class or summer course when you have 1 hour class per week, so I really enjoyed this private class. We were working on the lips flexibility. I am in the situation, that when I practice, certain colours and sounds are coming automatically, and even though I am practising flexibility exercises, there were some times when I was not able to reproduce a colour because I didn't find back to that embouchure. So Ory was most helpfully "torturing" 🤣 me with exercises (one particularly a killer) to help me. Its exactly like (as he also called it) going to the gym, working out with our lips and the muscles around it. Working on to be able to control and use them consciously. I really admire his patience, so I say an extra Thank You for that 😊 He is very friendly, great musician, and a wonderful teacher. Makes also a killer cheesecake and coffee 😉 Thank you Ory for this opportunity, I had a great time, keeping up with the exercises and truly appreciate the time I have spent there on your class. If I have the possibility, I will definitely book a class again! 😊

  Ory is a fantastic educator for the flute. He imparts very useful, tailored and distilled, information in an articulate, concise and methodical manner. The structured exercises and clear instructions pertaining to topics such as tone production/focus, dynamics, reduction of tension, (to give some examples), conferred a new found appreciation and awareness on isolating and developing the muscles responsible. Par consequence, this affords the player the tools to truly control the flute and not the other way around!
