Ami Humphreys

I am a flute and piccolo teacher with over 8 years of experience. I have mentored flute students through AMEB grades Preliminary to Grade 6, from ages 6-16, and also enjoy guiding adult learners through playing for leisure. My interests lie particularly in teaching beginners and introducing them to the flute with a focus on fundamentals of playing the instrument and reading music.

I am a recent BMus (Performance) graduate of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music (2025) and Royal Danish Academy of Music (2024) and will commence my first year at the Australian National Academy of Music in Melbourne. I have studied extensively with renowned Australian teachers James Kortum, Emma Sholl and Melissa Farrow (Baroque flute), and with Ulla Miilmann and Russell Itani (piccolo) in Copenhagen, Denmark. In 2025, I was Principal Flute with the Australian Youth Orchestra, performing in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, the Netherlands, Germany and Austria. I have collaborated with professional orchestras such as the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra and Sydney Philharmonia Choirs Orchestra.
