World Flute Lessons

Bansuri Ney Shakuhachi

As a professional flautist and tutor, Liam offers lessons in the rare arts of playing the Bansuri, Ney, and Shakuhachi flutes, online and in person. Finding such opportunities in the UK is extremely rare, and you are welcome to make use of it.

Each Customer is also offered to enroll in Private Tutoring to master their new Licht Flute. Liam provides discounts on Lessons and Instruments for his students and customers alike.

The Process

Bamboo from India, seasoned for over 10 Years, elevated through Rare Gemstones, Handcarved Lip Rests, Metal Rings, Comfortable Finger Hole Layouts, Shellac Finishes, and Japanese Threading to create a Divine Bansuri

- a Licht Bansuri

Every single flute is made with a unique vision and design, especially for the person who is receiving the instrument.

After purchase, a Videocall is offered so that the exact vision for your instrument is created through our meeting.

Based on this, the Bamboo is selected, each one with its own marbling and grain, sound quality, and personality.

Then the crafting process begins, turning the inspiration into a reality.
