Dear Students and Parents,
I know I’m preaching to the choir, but you may be interested in this New York Times article that appeared a couple of days ago:

Since we’re in Back-To-School mode, check out the good Dominant string prices at SHARmusic.com until Oct. 19.
I also wanted to let you know about an upcoming concert which will feature two violinist brothers from India. They play in an entirely different way from violinists in our world of western art music. I think it would be terrific for the students to hear this great playing in another fascinating tradition.
The concert will be on Oct. 28, 2012 at HHH Cowles Auditorium. For more info, go to

We are all off to a wonderful start. I’ll see you in lessons.
My best,
Lucia
