My Little Violin

I am so proud of all of my students who put a lot of effort to share their gift of music today.

Yes! We have some spots open to accept new students. Please contact us for violin lessons in Cu***ng, GA!!

From today’s group class with Ms. Corina. In this video, she is reading “Mile’s Music.” In Portuguese. No, none of us speaks Portuguese besides Ms. Corina, but we understand music as language and we wanted kids to immerse in tone, gesture, speed and dynamics of the language. Last lesson I read it in Japanese and next lesson, I have a parent who speaks Farsi.

Working on bow angle.

Auditions are always for self competition, not with others.

For this Mozart Divertiment excerpts, we worked on how to make this easy looking but actually difficult music sound effortless. Also we tried and tweaked many ways of articulation and dynamics, comparing Mozart’s Opera writing. I like stepping into past and imagine with my students the sound back then, and sound we want to make now.

Congratulations, Mei and Satomi!!
