I grew up in a family where music was a part of our daily life. My mother, who was an excellent pianist, piano teacher and singer, evoked in me a love of music from the very start. I began playing the violin at the age of 11. My mother saw to it that my brother and I would go and perform together (piano and violin) at the various judged recitals that were held throughout the year.
Since
deciding to play professionally, I chose to train with teachers of the
classical realm and also with great fiddlers. These studies enable me
today to offer a wide range of violin music from polished Classical to
raw Celtic, Blues, Italian and Jazz.
In 1992 I founded "Sound of Celebrations" - Music performance for all kinds of celebrations and ceremonies. Under this title, I play for Weddings, Grand Openings, Anniversaries and other Celebrations.
In 1993 I invented the concept for a special gift known as "Fiddle Gram". Instead of sending a Telegram for a birthday, an anniversary, for Valentine's Day or Mother's Day, I offer the present of a "Fiddle Gram".
This consists of a violinist coming
to the house, restaurant, or workplace of the person who is
celebrating. While I surprise the honored person with beautiful violin
music, a gift card is presented together with roses, chocolates and a
bottle of champagne. From the very beginning, the "Fiddle Grams" have
been the perfect gift.
Regardless of the event in which I perform, my intention is always on creating an atmosphere of beauty, celebration and joy. With the violin and its beautiful possibilities of expression I create a field, in which people can come in touch with the celebration of life itself. I truly love to share the joy of music and celebration.
