Oana

Freelance Viola, Violin & Piano Player & Teacher 2005 – present

I am an experienced professional viola player. My musical training includes also music pedagogy, chamber music, orchestra, harmony, analysis and music theory, just to name a few.

Tutoring Approach:
One to one lesson. Although I was classically trained, I can play and teach a wide range of styles, which can make the lessons more fun and interesting, approaching various repertoire. Also I can include, occasionally, chamber music lessons with my students.
For people interested to take further their musical studies and would like to take exams, we will focus mostly on the repertoire requested for the exam.

"No one has ever regretted picking up an instrument and learning how to play music. EVER :)"
