Welcome, Beautiful Soul!!
The Patreon community is an extension of the private studio🌻Here, you will find a virtual musical community (that also meets in person!) and direction from a music teacher--but on your schedule🎻🌟
There are 3 special classes I have created here just for YOU! There is an archive of past classes and access to these events live on the $15/45 tiers. Hope to see YOU soon! Come join our little music bubble here on Patreon💕🎻📚🤓 THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR ME AND WHAT I DO!!!
1. The Monthly Guest Artist Class is a special monthly LIVE lecture on a topic from teachers, performers, university professors and specialists from around the world! Teachers and top performers from the classical and folk music traditions, university professors of music history and music theory, general history (to understand the cultural time period) and specialist from Alexander Technique to Chi Gong and much more! Access the archive of 25+lectures and catch up with all the previous guest artist classes!
2. The Group Class is a LIVE dedicated practice time. I plan a small lesson (recommended books listed below) and also give you structured practice time. We also try out some of the things guest artists have brought up in their classes. You can ask questions and receive help on issues you're struggling with too. We also often hold a mini masterclass on the second group class of the month for anyone who would like to play and receive feedback from the group (like a mini lesson in front of the class).
Some of the books we use are The Schradieck School of Violin Techniques Book 1, First Etude Album for Violin, Introducing the Positions Book 1 and 2, Wolfahrt 60 studies for Violin, Suzuki Books 1-4, Solos for Young Violinists Book 1, Cantigas Renaissance Festival Favorites and some others! We also use the website 8notes--HIGHLY suggest a membership ($20/year) as you'll need to pull that music up on your end if you'd like to try it out in class☺️📚🎻
These classes are usually held on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday evening at 7:30 or 8pm ET on Zoom. There are 2 each month.🎻📚🫖🌻💕 If you miss it--you can find the recording in the "Group Class Archive"
3. The Virtual Studio Circle is a time for us as a community to get together LIVE and to hold positive space for those who would like to share what they have been working on during the month. We start the class with a review of what we learned in the studio and on Patreon during the month, the guest artist class topic and any other interesting tie bits that arose during the month. It's also a time to hear what people have been up to--what new songs you found, favorite books, musical adventures, etc.--the happenings of the month. The people that you'll meet at the Virtual Studio Circle (and Group Classes) are kind and warm-hearted. They are typically retirees or working professionals who are adding music their lives and who enjoy connecting with others. Some of the members are students who study with me weekly, some study with other teachers and some are professionally trained musicians just doing their own thing and seeking a positive community! We have a great time together and as always--don't forget to bring a cup of (or something stronger!) ! :) Join us the last Friday of the month at 7:30pm ET on Zoom.🎻📚🫖🌻
*All classes are recorded so you can still review them in the archives even if you can't make it live!
Lots of LOVE & GRATITUDE and hope to see YOU at a group event soon!🙏💕,
