    About Keryn K.

    *** Travel Equipment *** They need to provide their own violin. I can provide most sheet music. *** Specialties *** Experience teaching students of all ages. Studied classical violin at Manhattan School of Music. I also perform Jewish and Eastern European folk music. I specialize in the Russian School of violin technique. This emphasizes using the natural shape and weight of your arms/back/hands/etc to obtain the best quality tone while avoiding any stress on the body. This is the School used by Heifetz, Itzhak Perlman, Nathan Milstein, and most other violin virtuosos since the 20th century.
