    About Katie O.

    (1)
    Welcome to my studio! My name isn't Katie. I have been teaching for 18 years. I teach Violin, Viola, Cello, Piano. I specialize in classical training, but I also teach jazz, folk, and other genres. I'm excited to expand my studio to the online platform! I have a Masters and Bachelors in Violin Performance, with a Minor in Jazz. I've performed with famous acts like Barry Manilow, Earth Wind & Fire, Phil Keaggy, the Transiberian Orchestra, and orchestras in Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Florida. I'm an orchestra director for grades 3-9, and a newly appointed Professor of Strings at Thiel College. I just returned from playing a jazz festival in Italy with great musicians from the San Francisco Symphony, Turtle Island String Quartet, Quartet San Francisco, among others! Aside from my love of playing I love to teach! I look forward to speaking to you! Best regards, Katie
