IN-PERSON LESSONS WILL RESUME SUMMER 2023 W/VIRTUAL LESSON OPTION; SEE COVID PROTOCOL
Private violin and/or viola lessons are held in my home studio in Ossining, NY. This is a perfect location for those living in the Ossining, Briarcliff Manor, Croton on Hudson and surrounding communities.
Violin and viola lessons are available throughout the year. Each lesson is to be made by appointment only and is available for 30 min., 45 min., or 60 min. sessions. All lessons will be customized to the student's individual needs and abilities. Lessons may include technique building exercises such as scales, rhythmic exercises, etudes, shifting and music from the standard repertoire (see list for potential lesson materials used).
Small chamber ensembles (duets, trios, etc.) maybe formed throughout the semester. I also offer audition preparation for music festivals including NYSSMA, All-County and All-State. Recitals and performance opportunities will also be made available throughout the year.
For further information and studio policies, please see the Student Handbook below.. A signed copy will be required upon your first lesson, as well as a completed registration form. Feel free to email ViolinRLA@aol.com, with any other questions you may have.
