*** Specialties ***
While I specialize in classical music, I help my students discover what genre of music they're passionate about learning, including classical, jazz, pop, and fiddle. Lessons include scales, technique, ear training, sight reading, music theory, solos, duets, music performance and the option to prepare for auditions and youth orchestras. I tailor the curriculum I use depending on the need of each individual student. Please contact me for up to date lesson availabilities!

Beginner to intermediate students use method books such as Essential Elements, Suzuki Method, and the Royal Conservatory of Music. For young students, I also use the Sassmannshaus Tradition, and the Violin Fun Book series. Intermediate to Advanced students learn technique using Carl Flesch scales, and studies from Shradiek, Sevcik, Mazas, and Kreutzer to name a few. Solo pieces including from composers such as Mozart, Franck, Bruch, Mendelssohn, Seitz, Bach, Handel, Beethoven and Vivaldi. I also encourage my students to explore other styles of music that interest them, such as pop, fiddling, Celtic, and movie music.

I've studied classical violin since I was seven years old, and I love the way it helps me connect with people - both audiences and fellow musicians - on a higher level. Violin is a great creative outlet, and it's also a fantastic way to practice and see the fruit of discipline and hard work. I love performing, but it's a special joy to help students discover these same benefits of the study of music.

Hello! I am a Suzuki trained violinist with a degree in Violin Performance from Florida State University. I now teach part time at Community Music School in St. Louis and am looking to further grow my studio! I am committed to tailoring my approach to each individual student. I pride myself on being flexible and accountable and treating my students as if they are family. I hope to work with you soon!
About Bailey
Violin has been a part of my life since I was five years old. I began teaching while in college completing my Bachelors in Violin Performance. Although I was performing frequently, I realized my heart was in teaching. I built a wonderful studio of young violinists and we gave several performances out in the community. I moved to St. Louis about two months ago with my fiancé (a classical guitarist) and am once again looking to teach. I have begun working at the Community Music School but would like to teach privately as well. I am happy to come to you and be flexible with busy schedules. In my approach, the student and their family always come first. I hope to have the chance to work with you!

Review by Chris
"At the age of 58 I decided to start taking violin lessons for 2 reasons, enjoyment of playing music and exercise my brain. I found Lucy K on the takeless
ons.com website and she was able to accommodate my request for lessons in my home on a Sunday. Starting from scratch, she taught me the fundamentals of playing and I have made some progress over the last 8 months. She is patient with me yet will push me along and at time bring me out of my comfort zone, which is good. She has the ability and training to teach students from early age to older adults like me. In addition, she also teaches piano, which my wife started lessons with Lucy K at the same time I started violin. She has my recommendation if you have interest in either violin or piano.

"My daughter has been one of Mel's violin students for 5+ years. He is an accomplished musician who teaches his students with a kind and gracious demeanor
. She also has had the opportunity to play solo's in recitals and yearly contests that Mel's studio arranges for his students. Because of his well-rounded attention to instruction, practice, and performance, her growth as a violinist has been immense. This growth has also allowed her to compete at the district and state level in school."
