Violin Lessons in Orlando – Not Just for Beethoven and Bocephus
By Chris R. - Orlando Violin Teacher
A hot night spot is packed with people looking to kick off their evening. Canned music pumps through the sound system as the band sets up. The band members look like the usual suspects. There's the drummer, adjusting the height on the ride symbol. The bass player fiddles with the nobs on his amp. The guitarist checks her tuning one last time. The violinist puts a last swipe of rosin on his bow.
Wait! Was that really a violinist? What kind of band is this? Is this country night? Are they going to do covers of Bach and Beethoven?
Pretty soon the band starts to play. Is it rock? Yes, it's rock – but there's something more. Something that the violin does to the rock that gives it something different, something more. It's something... irresistible!
Is that just a fairy tale? Absolutely not! It's a reality that is becoming more and more prevalent around the world and right here in town, as more and more people are taking violin lessons in Orlando. Being pigeonholed into a few specific genres is a thing of the past for the modern violinist. National acts like Yellowcard, Miri Ben-Ari (the hip-hop violinist) and Black Violin are paving the way for a new generation of violinists.
As for me? Sure, I was trained classically and loved it. But now I enjoy playing with my rock band, Hotel Hurry, as much as I do performing a Beethoven symphony with the Maitland Symphony Orchestra. Look out music world - the violinists are coming and we want it all! Join us and sign up for violin lessons in Orlando today!
