Sound & Systems

I'm Tal Bruchstein, a Melbourne-based musician, teacher and technologist with more than two decades of professional session work - recording and performing with bands across the Israeli music scene, alongside studio and live collaborations.

I teach private lessons and run courses in music theory and music production, specialising in ear training, musical intuition and emotional expression. My teaching treats music as a prism for better living: the skills we practise in music - focused listening, clarity of intent, and expressive nuance - improve how we communicate and experience the world, not just how we perform.

On the technical side I work with businesses on e-commerce and IT infrastructure, build small automations and tools, and experiment with innovative musical instruments and accessible interfaces. I aim for solutions that are useful, unobtrusive and reliable.

Accessibility and empathy guide everything I do. I prefer calm, patient explanations and practical plans that let your creativity and daily life come first.
