About the course

In this course, you’ll find an innovative teaching methodology, designed to found the structural basis of violin technique: the functioning of the bow and its control. All the music we can perform with the violin does not come from the left hand’s virtuosity, but from the sound the bow can produce, so the beauty of our expression will be given by it.
This is why in this stage of initiation we will be dedicated to work specifically all the aspects of the production of sound and bow control in a relaxed and natural way, focusing in making this learning experience pleasurable and enjoyable; making music from the very start, whether it is by imitating the compositions suggested or by improvising over tracks designed especially for this initial stages. We will not only work in the production of a clear, full, even and beautiful sound with the entire bow, but also in practicing different rythms and tempos.
With this method you will learn the best way to practice, making your own exercises creatively, and you’ll know how to overcome any difficulty that comes up through simple techniques I will provide.

Violin, viola and violoncello instructor
When I started my violin studies I was 18 years old, and I was lucky enough to find a school for stringed instruments in which I was not only taught the performing techniques, but also what’s most important, to enjoy the easiest the violin can give us: its sound, pure and simple. From that moment, my experience with the instrument became about connecting with vibration and feeling before anything else. And that is the reason why I love teaching, begginers mostly, so that I can pass on the enthusiasm and fulfillment the basic elements can give us.
In 2002 I started my violin studies in Zenerata Escuela de Cuerdas, guided by Gato Urbanski and his team, in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
In 2005 I started working as teacher’s assistant in initiation groups for children; and I started my participation in Aqualactica, an electroacoustic string quintet, playing live and in professional recordings for ourselves and other musicians as well, until 2010.
From that moment on, I have been developping and leading on my own workshops and groups for the initiation of violin, viola and violoncello in different cultural centers in Buenos Aires, and I have continued with the formation of students at a private level.
