Best Violin Lessons in Mead, CO

I began teaching violin lessons privately 5 years ago and have had as many as 40 students at one time. I have had many beginner students of all ages, and welcome students of any age or level. I approach each one of my students individualistically, focusing on the kind of music that interests and excites them most, while also providing material and exercises to help strengthen the students’ musicianship and technical proficiency on the instrument. I believes in bettering my student’s abilities through encouragement and positive reinforcement, guiding them to find a love and commitment to music. I understand that above all else, music should feel fun and rewarding and serve as a way to express yourself. If you're not having fun, you're missing the point! I have taught classical music, jazz, fiddle, and pop, and have a background in the Suzuki Method.

We're two sisters who grew up playing violin together. Now we'd like to share our love for the instrument with others in our community. Between us, we have 40 years of playing experience, and we're happy to vary our lessons to interact with all learning styles and ages. We both trained at the School of Music of the University of Northern Colorado, and have learned from some of the best musicians in the region. We look forward to getting to know you!

Progression

I am from Budapest, Hungary. Studied violin and viola there and have been living in the US for 33 years. I am a professional musician performing and teaching. My lessons include a well rounded approach including scales, technique like etudes and real pieces. I also use Suzuki books for their wonderful repertoire.

I've taught violin for over ten+ years to hundreds of happy students of all ages. I promise you'll have an exciting and fun first lesson! My violin playing has been featured with Kevin Olusola (Pentatonix, "Heart Attack"), Glee, Perla Batalla (Leonard Cohen), and featured on dozens of records with dozens of LA artists (Hayley Kiyoko, Zac Poor, REO, Yore). I have a BFA Performer Composer degree from the California Institute of the Arts, I graduated in 2012.

I focus on the Suzuki method with an emphasis on technique, rhythm, and sight reading. If you are looking for a teacher with a fun, fresh perspective on learning the violin, I'm your guy!

I love tailoring lessons to my students! Music is personal and I want to make sure you're learning what you're interested in or need to learn in order to prepare you for auditions or keep up in groups you play in. I always ask students for a list of music they're listening to or want to learn - nothing's off limits!
