What others say

Naama’s very inspired transcriptions of great musical masterpieces are so gratifying for flutists, both professional and amateur, giving them much needed repertoire experiences which will greatly add to their musical abilities and joy. I am so very much looking forward to performing them!

Timothy Hutchins

Solo-Flute Montreal Symphony Orchestra

I have had the privilege and honor to be taught by Naama while I was preparing for the Haifa international flute competition.
Naama is not only an expert on flute technique, sound and musical style, she is a fantastic mental coach for the high pressure involved in preparing and playing a competition.
Her guidance helped me later in life when I was auditioning and winning several principal Flute orchestra positions.

Principal Flute, Badische Staatskapelle Karlsruhe​

I had the unique opportunity to study with Ms. Naama Neuman during my Bachelor’s degree at Tel-Aviv University. 
Besides being an amazing flute player, she is also a true musician and a very supportive teacher. 
Naama is extremely attentive to each small note, articulation, and vibrato yet not forgetting to take into account the whole phrase and make music on the highest level. She helped me elevate my flute playing in most needed times, and words can not describe the huge impact she made on my playing.
