Student Reviews
As an adult, but also as a new student of the cello, I have most enjoyed my lessons with Lesley. Not only is she an inspired musician, she is an inspiring teacher. She is both exacting and encouraging. The lessons are challenging, but also fluid, allowing time and development of exercises to address one's own particular "issues". This dynamic allows the lesson to be extremely tailored to one's own particular challenges and efforts to play better. She also conveys extremely interesting and helpful information about the cello, its history, how it is made and what contributes to the beauty of the sound...and even how best to carry and care for the instrument. And, she is extremely personable, and, more specifically, her love for the music shines brightly. If you really want to learn how to play, and have fun doing so, your should contact Lesley. I strongly recommend her!
MCW - New York, NY Teacher: Lesley R.About the Violin
The violin's strings may be sounded by drawing the hair of the bow across them (arco) or by plucking them (pizzicato). The left hand regulates the sounding length of the string by stopping it against the fingerboard with the fingertips, producing different pitches.
