Quick Start Grants

I plan to pursue music professionally. Lessons with Mr. Cole will greatly benefit my musical education, and will help me improve as a violinist. Living in a small area, there are no violin teachers who know the repertoire I am working on, or have advanced technique to teach me. I hope to cover a wide range of classical violin repertoire throughout the remainder of this year, and improve my technique, intonation, practice habits, and performance skills. I hope to attend a music conservatory next year, and he can help me prepare for auditions to the best of my ability. Having attended a prestigious conservatory himself, he knows what the adjudicators will be listing and looking for, and will help me prepare accordingly. My primary goals I hope to achieve from lessons with Mr. Cole include the following: (1) be accepted into most/all of the conservatories I apply to, (2) learn more advanced repertoire, and (3) improve as a violinist.
