Instruments: Violin Viola Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle

I value the original music of individuals I run into in the local music scene here just as much as the somewhat antiquated music of classical composers, and, with a combination of these, I play out roughly three or four times a week and strive to always give the best performance I possibly can.

I cater to each student's expectations in taking lessons, as well as their individual technical, musical, and performing needs. Read More
