About Roelfke

Roelfke Huttenga is a classical pianist based in Zwolle. She believes in placing full focus on the music, transporting her audience into a journey of sound. Roelfke collaborates with many instrumentalists and vocalists on a regular basis, while also playing solo from time to time. ‘Music is enough for a lifetime, but a lifetime is not enough for music’, a quote by Rachmaninoff, encapsulates this determination to bring across the narrative that is music. No over-the-top theatrics here, but still an understated emotionality and a deep passion for all the works she plays.

Why take up the piano?

The piano is a great instrument to discover. Creating music with your own two hands is the perfect way to have fun. You can play almost anything on the piano, and that’s what makes piano playing so exciting and gives it such variety.

In short

I teach all ages and levels; my lessons are tailor-made to suit each individual. For advanced students, the lessons are based around classical music. However, beginners and intermediate students will receive instruction centering on general music appreciation, which encompasses all major styles – jazz and pop pieces will also be studied, among others. To truly cater for the taste of each and every student, I use different piano methods regularly and offer supplemental pieces and songs that go along with the student’s interests.

I am bilingual, which means I teach in both Dutch and English. I grew up abroad and had almost all my schooling in English up until the university level.

Lesson fee

Lessons are based on a fee of 50 euros per hour – lesson time slots offered are half an hour, three quarters of an hour, and an hour. For very young students, lessons of 20 minutes are also possible.
