Josu is a great musician and a great teacher. We studied flute together in the master’s program at Folkwang UdK, and Josu was always there for everyone in the class. I often played for him, and he would immediately see and hear what I could still try with my sound and body to improve my playing; he always helped me a lot, both technically and musically! On a personal level, Josu is simply very supportive and always creates a very positive atmosphere. If you ever feel a bit sad or frustrated because something isn’t working, he always has great ideas for technical exercises that are never boring and still very effective. He is a professional musician, works in an orchestra, and plays a lot of chamber music, but he has also gathered a great deal of teaching experience. He really knows how to teach—excellent for beginners but, honestly, also for advanced students. He plays and teaches with so much passion, and you notice that immediately.
