Meet our team:

I have studied for almost 20 years starting when I was 7 in my hometown Yerevan, Armenia. After I continued my education in Yerevan State Conservatory, Zurich University of the Arts (Switzerland) and finally in the Univeristy of Wyoming (United States). I worked in two professional orchestras in Armenia and United States before I got assistant concertmaster position here in Brazil where I perform, teach and do recordings. I am here to help everyone who is willing to become violinist or improve their skills but please be patient and keep in mind that no one becomes a good violinist in after "a few lessons". It's a long way, but it's worth it.

I received Doctorate degree in Viola Performance from Michigan State Univerity, where I studied with Pr. Yuri Gandelsman. I mostly play viola, sometimes violin. I enjoyed doing at home recordings for many years and worked for many artists in different genres, and for movie and video-game industries. I teach limited number of students, and I prefer to give classes on specific topics, as I don't have time for more than few students with my tight schedule.
