About Kit
I have had a deep personal connection to the violin as long as I can remember. I began studying at 6 years of age learning classical music through my High School years, where I was concertmaster of my award-winning school orchestra. I began listening to jazz in high school and eventually learned improvisation in jazz and American fiddle music. After college I played with a rock and country rock band, touring for 3 years before going back and getting formal training as a jazz musician. I then became an elementary music teacher, after an ear training program in college convinced me that early ear training is the key to developing musical intelligence. I used that experience to develop a beginning violin program using ear training as a key part of my teaching. In recent years I have played professionally with a number of well-known jazz musicians in Canada and the US, and am deeply focused now on developing intuitive improvisational techniques.
