I am currently teaching Private Violin lessons, Chamber Music, Improvising and Master Classes.
Red Rabbit Music is run by Rebecca Cherry. With more than 20 years of teaching experience. Her students have gone on to be professional musicians, won competitions, placed in State Orchestras and gone on to study at top Universities around the United States. She has spent a portion of her teaching career giving back to children from under represented communities, working with them to have an opportunity to learn the Violin, discover their creativity and most importantly, believe in themselves.
Rebecca has built Red Rabbit Music for all levels of students. Her strong Classical background, skill as an improvisor on the Violin and knowledge in world music create a unique and diverse teaching experience for her students. For those players who are interested in exploring their own musical creativity, Ms. Cherry will foster and nurture both their Classical technique necessary for all styles of performance and their improvising and composition skills.
Beginner students enjoy their lessons that begin with a strong foundation for technique with immersion, encouragement, small steps, and an unforced timetable for learning material based on each person’s developmental readiness.
