Violin concepts taught by Christa

Student learned 3 days ago

The session focused on exploring different musical modes used in recitation, breath control exercises, and basic vocal warm-up techniques. The student and tutor discussed how to connect specific modes to verses based on their emotional content and practiced breathing exercises to improve breath control. The plan is to incorporate Tajweed syllables and specific modes into future warm-up exercises.

Thanks to Golding violin lessons, my 10 year old has remained excited and dedicated to music. Her kind support and well organized teaching turned daily practice into something fun instead of a task in Harlem.

I’m an adult just starting out on the violin. Golding in Oak Creek makes each lesson both useful and fun. We work on classical skills but also play folk songs, which keeps things interesting and balanced.

To dive into the world of movie soundtracks was inspired by Golding . Together, we adapted themes for solo violin and focused on bringing out emotion through expressive technique.
