About Me

I started playing the violin at the age of 7 and my talent was soon recognized by my teachers. I was accepted into the Republican Middle Specialized Musical Hostel School for Gifted Children, where she received a rigorous education in music.

After graduation, I was accepted into the prestigious M.I. Glinka Novosibirsk Conservatory, where I studied under Professor Mikhail Turich. Throughout my time there, I excelled in my studies, winning prizes at several international competitions, such as the Krasnoyarsk International Music and Theatre Competition and the Novosibirsk VI Open Competition for Young Musicians.

I was invited to perform as a soloist with several orchestras, including the Novosibirsk Chamber Orchestra, the Astana Symphony Orchestra, and the Dubai Symphony Orchestra.

I also held positions as concertmaster of Novosibirsk Camerata Chamber Orchestra and first violin in Novosibirsk Symphony Orchestra. During my time in Novosibirsk, I had the opportunity to collaborate with some of the most renowned conductors in the world, including Kent Nagano, Mariss Jansons, and Teodor Currentzis.

In September 2021, I began my Master's of Arts in Music Performance (major in Concert Performance with main subject Violin) in Switzerland at HEMU (Haute Ecole de Musique Lausanne) under the guidance of Professors Ilya Gringolts, Yuuki Wong, and Tomo Keller. I graduated in June 2023, enriched with invaluable experiences and a refined musical voice, poised for a promising professional career.

I have also been invited to participate in several internships and festivals in Switzerland, such as the Sinfonie Orchester Biel Solothurn, the Sinfonietta de Lausanne and the Gstaad Menuhin Festival & Academy. I have also participated in masterclasses with renowned musicians such as Zahar Bron, Boris Kuschnir, Maxim Vengerov, Daniel Hope, Sergey Krylov, Sergey Khachatryan, and Gyula Stuller.

As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.

As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.

Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.

In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

With several years of experience as a piano and harpsichord teacher, as well as an organ and harpsichord accompanist, I have developed solid expertise in various musical styles.
Specializing in classical and baroque music, I remain open to other stylistic universes, which has allowed me to explore Latin American and traditional music repertoires.

My lessons adapt to the needs and desires of each student. Together, we build a personalized program based on their level, musical tastes and goals.

We will cover targeted concepts and techniques to achieve your goals and adapted to the way you learn best. Sheet music, oral, visual, annotations or adapted scores are all tools that I keep at my disposal according to needs. Music theory can help some people, in certain forms and in measured doses, while others, on the contrary, do not need it. It does not take me much time to learn to understand you and from the first session I will have targeted one or more approaches that will suit you. I still have one rule at heart, and that is to always maintain musicality and take pleasure even when playing simple things or exercises. Learning should never become a chore and should be a pleasure just as much as enjoying a good level of playing.
