Hi! My name is Jaclyn and I am a professional violinist who has spent the last four years performing in New York City. I have had the honor of performing as a soloist and a chamber musician in some of New York's most sought after venues including Steinway Hall. I have also performed in a number of pit orchestras including an off broadway production of Carousel. I am also a studio musician and have done a number of commercials. I work frequently with composers working on new classical music as well as with rock and alternative musicians. I bring my wide variety of experience as well as my passion for creative and collaborative learning to my teaching. I appreciate learning music from a more well rounded perspective looking at theory, history, and performance practice.
