Individual Instruction


Violin requires close, individual attention — which is why every lesson at Manhattan Music is individual. Every lesson is shaped by what you need to work on next, ensuring steady progress and good habits from day one.

Strong Foundations


We prioritise proper technique, posture, and musicianship from day one. Correct technique early on creates a platform for everything that follows and creates players with the skills to tackle any repertoire.

Performance Ready


Your playing deserves an audience. Our live performance opportunities give you the chance to take your violin from the practice room to the stage. Many students say performing is the highlight of their year.

Violin Styles We Teach


CLASSICAL & CONTEMPORARY

Manhattan Music teaches violin across a wide range of styles — from Baroque classics to folk, jazz, and everything in between. Your lessons are always shaped by the music you want to play. We also offer ensemble opportunities through our workshop program.

Classical Violin

Master the rich classical repertoire from Baroque through modern composers. Learn proper classical technique, interpretation, and performance practice. Perfect for students pursuing AMEB examinations, orchestral playing, or chamber music.

Contemporary Styles

Explore violin in folk, Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, rock, and contemporary settings. Learn improvisation, playing by ear, and how to adapt violin to modern musical contexts.

Ensemble Playing

Through our workshops, violin students learn to play with other instruments, developing the listening skills and blend needed for chamber music, orchestras, and contemporary ensembles.

Whether your goal is classical mastery or contemporary exploration, we provide the technical foundation to play any style.

PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES


From Practice to Performance


Learning violin naturally leads to sharing your music with others.
At Manhattan Music School, we provide performance opportunities throughout the year.
