Beginners
With easy popular and famous classical tunes you'll be learning a good left hand and bowing technique, to read sheet music, a relaxed posture and we'll be playing nice duets! You'll also be playing scales, etudes and exercises, to create a smooth technique.
Violin Lessons Children
Recent studies have shown that the earlier music instruction is begun, the better. Most agree that beginning violin training before the age of seven offers the most definitive results. We use playful modern tuition materials
Fun in music is paramount!
Your child learns to read musi and step by step your child develops a solid musical basis. We discover the violin with ceasy popular and classical songs and fun exercises. Fun in music comes first and every lesson we play together some nice little duets by famous classical composers!
More Advanced Violinists
Of course you want to learn to play the violin with a good technique and a relaxed posture. It is essential, but it is only the basis... Real music making comes when you can use this basis to express your own interpretation and feelings!
What to expect
With personalised exercises, etudes, scales and your favourite music you'll develop a beautiful tone, staccato, spiccato, legato and vibrato. Depending on your musical preferences you'll be playing classical, baroque, contemporary music, romantic sonatas and concertos or popular music styles. It is extremely important to me that the initial love and excitement that comes with starting an instrument is maintained and nourished throughout the lessons.
Baroque Violin
Besides modern violin and experience in performing pop and folk music, I specialised also in baroque violin and love to share my passion for historical context and baroque music with you.
