When Jude is not playing the recorder, she is a flute player and teacher. Jude has over 40 years experience as a flute teacher, maintaining a busy schedule at schools in Sydney and a home studio, where she teaches beginners through to Diploma level students. She leads several ensembles as part of her work and has played flute with Sydney Wind Symphony and Kuringai Orchestra, although her current focus is on Early Music performance with Consort 8.

A specialist Recorder and Flute examiner for the AMEB, Jude has a passion for leading young players to explore their potential as music makers. She has an abiding love of consort playing, and has been a popular guest tutor on several occasions for the SSRP weekly meetings and at our Bundanoon workshops. She continues to enjoy studying traverso and recorder repertoire with her teacher Hans-Dieter Michatz. A commitment to lifelong learning and music making is central to her life.
