I am currently working full time as a first violinist in the NYCBallet orchestra which is now thought of as the finest ballet orchestra in the world and I love to play in it.

I have taught continously during my educational and professional career.

About the lesson

  • All Levels
  • English

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

I find out what their level is in either classical, jazz, bluegrass, india, and adapt the tools I have learned over a 40 year career at NYCBallet orchestra, studio business, chamber orchestras.



I have taught Sarah Watkins of Nickel Creek when she was a young girl at Mark OConnors Fiddle Camp, assisted Dorothy Delay at Aspen Music Festival peripherally with high level classical students. I am fond of saying I could teach a stone to improvise if that is of interest.  I have put the teaching students type in the categories above in the education and training section.



Buckle your seat belt , if you are willing to work hard , whether improvisation, classical, jazz, I guarantee you will be thrilled.



As a grammy citation winner for the Titanic movie, I played a concert in Dhangadi Nepal which raised enough to build an entire wing on the Cataract hospital there, which gives sight back to an average of 117 people young and old every day. I am very happy and proud of this concert in 2012



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Remember , in my case I don't take beginners, other than that what ever questions you have are fine with me.

 Here is a mini-cv on the NYCB orchestras home page for musicians

Along with being the only violinist ever to appear on the same stage with Bill Monroe (the father of Bluegrass music) and also with Charles Wuorinen ( cough, cough), Wyclef Jean, (founder of the Fugees) played norwegian style fiddle in the movie Fargo, and recorded an extended solo on "Smile" with the king of pop's Michael Jackson in a rendition of his favorite song. Receiving a special grammy citation for his celtic fiddle work on "My heart will go on" he performed on the grammies with Celine Dion.  He is also the only violinist to have played his Stradiqarius on "fishbowl reef" in St. John, USV Islands ! These are just a very few of the unusual places he has played the violin. The stradiquarius sadly to say, came apart at the seams shortly after this picture was taken at a depth of 30 feet and was left under a rock where it became a subject of interest for other scuba divers in the following weeks, whereupon it was buried by the changing currents and buried by the sand.
