Mirna Alicia Reyes

Let’s play Violin!

Hi I’m Wassenaar based violin teacher and concert violinist Mirna Alicia Reyes. Did you always wanted to learn to play violin? Are you looking for a violin teacher to help you realise your dream? Or do you want to introduce your children to music in a fun and guided way?

Why Music?

As Sinichi Suzuki said: “Teaching music is not my main purpose. I want to make good people. If children hear fine music from the day of their birth and learn to play it, they develop sensitivity discipline and endurance. They get a beautiful heart.”

Individual Lessons

Personalised guidance for both advanced players who seek for advice from a professional concertist and for beginners who want to start with the best tools possible. Enjoy modern teaching materials, clear instructions, inspiration and motivation from a music teacher with experience in teaching violin to all levels and ages.

Lesson Location

Lessons are to be held at my cosy studio in Wassenaar.

Classical, Pop and Folk

The best way to learn music is through the music that you like to hear. So with my lessons you will learn to play the violin with the melodies you like to hear combined with other specially chosen to help you develop your full potential. Come and discover classical music and new tunes coming from Latin American countries.

Children

Music is best learnt by doing. Therefore I address my lessons in an interactive and energetic way! Young children learn important elements of music pratice and theory in a playful way. The lessons may cover elements from the famous Suzuki method. Next to playful learning materials and customised exercises, basic technique, easy songs, progressive studies we’ll be playing duets!

Violin Lessons Advanced

Want to improve your vibrato, a more relaxed posture and souple technique? Want to learn to play real legato, staccato or spiccato? We’ll work on technique and musicality, while expanding your repertoire and the interpretation of the music you like best.

Student Concerts

You will have the opportunity to perform at our regularly scheduled student concerts for a small audience (parents, friends an other students). Enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and cosy environment. Professional accompanist available!

Flexibility

Especially for advanced/ adult students: the 5 and 10 Lesson Cards offers flexibility in your agenda. Lessons by appointment.
