Upbeat Violin, Viola, Cello, and Piano Lessons with a Pro!

Teaching music is my passion, and my lessons are ALWAYS upbeat and positive! Lessons are 100% tailored to you - YOUR goals, music background, and musical tastes.

I have a Doctorate in Music Education, a Master's degree in Orchestral Conducting, and a decade of experience playing professionally for orchestras and teaching hundreds of students of all ages!

Extra information

The time commitment to become "good" is sometimes the biggest challenge for music students at any age. It takes 30-90 minutes a day in focused practice to make satisfying progress. With patience and dedication, though, you will learn some of the most beautiful music in the world!

I have been teaching online music lessons for 5 years on Zoom and Skype. (I can show you how to set it up on your phone or computer.)

I look forward to speaking with you!

Violin Lessons - Private lessons for all ages. Individual lessons geared towards each individual student.
After studying violin and piano in Boston, at New England Conservatory with Eric Rosenblith, Master Classes with Dorothy DeLay, chamber music with Leslie Parnas and Burton Fine, as well as other Juilliard teachers and studies with Robert Soetens in France, I have been fortunate to enjoy over twenty years of teaching violin, viola and piano students. I am currently teaching in Central Florida as well as online through my Unique Musicality curriculum business. My initial studio experience began during my education at New England Conservatory, where I began teaching young students in the Boston area. Later, I was able to give master classes, private and group lessons in France and Asia as a member of touring orchestras. I currently teach lessons as well as providing master classes for select students and organizations. For the past two summers, I was a coach and performer at the Assisi Performing Arts Chamber Music Festival in Assisi, Italy. I have also been a judge in various Youth Symphony competitions as well as civic organizations that hold music competitions, such as the Kiwanis Club Arts and Music competition. My students have achieved entrance into summer conservatory programs including Peabody’s Music Summer Camp, Emory University’s Atlanta Chamber Music Festival, Franklin Pond Summer Intensive Chamber music program, Assisi Italy Performing Arts Chamber Music Festival, as well as continuing their college studies at Music Schools and Conservatories.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced player, if you're here, it probably means you need support in some aspect of your music education.

As part of my program, you will get to know and explore: - Fundamentals: reading violin music, proper posture, intonation, scales, solfeggio, techniques and other exercises. - Violin Technique: correct posture, holding of the violin and the bow, finger and bow techniques through various exercises. - Pitch and Rhythm: recognize and notate pitches on all strings, experience diverse rhythms and meters. - Musical Vocabulary: basic musical terms and symbols. - Making music: learning to express your musicality through understanding form, dynamics, tempo and phrasing. - Repertoire: literature of various composers, understanding their style and of the epoch of theirs. Please contact me before booking a lesson so that I can understand your priorities and, in accordance with your level of experience and individual learning pace, embark on this musical journey.

Maria
Violin lessons for everybody (in Harborne and online)
Whether you are a complete beginner, or you want to continue your musical journey, we can find the path that best suits you! I have been teaching violin and music in general for the past 7 years working, with every kind of student, from children to adults, professional and amateur, beginner and not. I am a very patient teacher and I always try to find many different material and new stimuli to exercise and stay motivated. The goal is to give you the tools to express yourself through music, expand your skills and musical imagination, having fun in the process. I completed my musical studies in Italy, but I had the chance to spend some time studying and playing in Belgium and Austria too. Alongside teaching, I play in orchestras and ensembles and I also continued studying, getting a master degree in baroque violin.
