VIOLIN MASTERY REQUIRES
YOUR HEAD, HEART, AND HANDS
When I was a Junior in college wondering how to continue my violin studies, I heard a solo violinist perform at music camp in Maine. Although I had thousands of hours practice up to that point, the transcending beauty of that concert left me in awe of how far I could go.
The motto for the camp that year came from the French novelist Gustave Flaubert: "We long to make music that will melt the stars."
This experience led to practice rooms at Juilliard, concerts at Carnegie hall, and leadership chairs in several orchestras. I'm grateful to my exceptional teachers and colleagues who have propelled my skills heavenward as I strive for that bit of stardust on my bow.
After more than 25 years performing and teaching, I've learned that star-quality music requires more than exceptional technique. At your biggest moment on stage, the words in your head and the music in your heart is as important as the notes in your fingers. As you approach performance as a wholistic artform, your virtuosic abilities on the violin will soar.
On top of a solid foundation of consistent practice, are the three pillars of the Star Violin Studio:
1. Mastery Mindset
2. Artistic Intent
3. Technical Expertise
Mastery of the violin is the journey of a lifetime. Taking the path upwards with an intentional approach to improving ALL of your abilities will give your playing sparks of confidence, joy, and magic.
Let's pursue excellence together.
Let's make music that will melt the stars.
