Introduction

I am a classically trained violinist, with nearly 30 years of professional experience both in Europe and the USA. I have earned a BM Degree in Music Education and a MM in Violin Performance, and offer highly qualified help to any enthusiast willing to study and learn to play the violin. As an entertainer, I perform in a variety of musical genres ranging from classical to pop. I Would travel to your place if desired, though a considerable discount is offered to students who prefer coming to my studio in Sun Valley. I have experience with all levels and ages of students - from K to adult, and from complete beginner - to advanced. Helping students of various ages and backgrounds, I implement all experience and training gained over the years. In purpose to adapt and adjust to every student's personal goals, tastes, style, and level of training, I use various methods and techniques. With the help of my husband - a modern American violin maker - I can offer expertise with any instrument-related problem. Please, share your goals and preferences with me, and I will help you achieve them! I believe that music is the finest form of expression and communication between humans. I am one of those blessed, lucky people who love doing what they do! I love the violin and share my passion for it with my students. Also, really enjoy performing and appreciate students who are passionate about making music. Helping others to learn using that wonderful way of self-expression keeps me going!

Q&A

Graduate of the Academy of Music, Dance, and Fine Arts -Plovdiv, BG. Major in Music Education. Graduate of the University of Nevada- Reno Master in Music Performance.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

After moving to the Reno-Tahoe area, I discovered that only playing in the local Reno orchestras does not employ my full professional potential.

What types of customers have you worked with?

Students of various ages K-12 and adults. Students of different levels of advancement. People from different walks of life, who needed live music for their special events: wedding ceremonies, birthday parties, surprise engagements/ dinner parties, and background music in a restaurant.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Nice to meet you, I would like to help you find the service you are looking for (corresponding with your taste, style, and personality) within your personal budget. From music lessons to personalized music for your special event, no project is too small or too big. A free consultation is offered to help me learn about your needs so I can provide you with my customized service.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

What is your goal? Is there a specific music style or pieces that you'd like to be able to play yourself, or hear at your party, wedding ceremony, art gallery, or reception? Are you considering coming to my studio for private lessons or a consultation? When can we schedule it, according to your (and my) availability?
