Luka Vlašić

Luka Vlašić was born in 1983 in Požega, Croatia where he finished primary and secondary music school.  He got his diploma from the Arts Academy University of Split in the class of prof. Goran Listeš. He won awards in regional and state competitions as a soloist and also as a member of chamber ensembles. He attended masterclasses by the world's most eminent guitarists: Costas Cotsiolis, Carlo Marchione, Pavel Steidl, Aniello Desiderio, Zoran Dukić, Denis Azabagić, Marco Tamayo, Marcin Dylla etc. and lutenist Hopkinson Smith. Besides Croatia, he has also performed in Hungary, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and United Arab Emirates. After finishing his studies, he went in Dubai where he taught at the Centre of Musical Arts. Currently he lives in Zagreb where he is employed at Music School Zlatka Balokovića. English composer Mark William Houghton dedicated him his composition English Serenade which is published by Les Productions d'OZ.

Before the COVID-19 crisis I didn't believe in online teaching, but after I was forced to move all my lessons online I realized that it is really possible. Of course nothing can't be compared with one to one tuition in person, but during this period I have realized that online teaching can be very productive too. 

I started teaching guitar when I was college student and during 15 years I had experience with students all of levels and ages. My students won awards on regional, state and international competitions. I combine my own methods with Croatian guitar school program and Associate Board of the Royal Schools of Music and Trinity College London syllabus. Approach to every student is individual, and beside guitar technique and performance I also teach music theory in parallel.

I am a member of Croatian Association of Guitar Pedagogues and I have teaching license issued by Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Croatia.
