This came across my desk again this morning and I thought I would share as we are headed back to schools and conservatories. Mindset is truly the biggest game changer for so many students!

Excited to expand my series on the preparation pathways I take toward bigger concerti.

Join me on Zoom where I will detail the fundamentals, etudes, and exercises I use to prepare a student to soar on the Mendelssohn Concerto.

For all of the studio parents out there…sending love and strength to you!

Your child wants to take the reins and be released but doesn't yet have the ability or awareness to do it alone. As the parent of a serious violin student, Amy Beth Horman shares what she has learned about the value and beauty of letting go, a little bit at a time.

Still inspired from a wonderful week at the National ASTA conference in San Francisco- from watching my own daughter perform with Christian Howes, teaching the Collegiate Violin Master Class, and then watching my student Lilia and Ava soar with Melissa White…it was so wonderful to see everyone and be part of such an inspiring community of performers and educators!

Super excited to present my students at Strathmore Mansion tomorrow with pianist, Cole Anderson for a very special studio recital. So many students have traveled with us this trip to share their music and I am beyond proud of them. This event is free for anyone interested in attending.
