As a musician I am inspired by many styles of playing, with classical music and Scandinavian folk being my main focus.
My goal as a teacher is to keep and increase the students love for music as well as offer necessary and appropriate skills to keep the student challenged.

About Me

Welcome on today's Show! Today's special guest - Saimi!

Hi, my name is Saimi - a very outgoing half finnish-estonian girl who loves music, weird humour, fishing, linguistics, anything vintage and snow.
I am a classical music student at the Uniarts Helsinki Sibelius Academy and FRIKA (Free Candidate program) student at the Norwegian Academy of Music, where in addition to classical violin I study the Norwegian hardingfele. I am actively playing in orchestras and taking part of masterclasses all around the Globe. Starting from the year 2017 I have been an active member of the Baltic Sea Philharmonic which has brought me to such big stages like Berlin Philharmonie, Elbphilharmonie Hamburg etc.
In addition to playing classical music, I play (and sing) a lot of Nordic folk music - especially with my trio - Trio Lumi.

I can offer you instruction in:
- classical violin
- folk violin (focus on Scandinavian and Baltic music)
- hardingfele
- folk singing

Lessons with Saimi are incredibly fun and helpful. She's super funny and there's never a dull moment \⁠(⁠^⁠o⁠^⁠)⁠/ She gave me exercises to practice at home right away and she gives great care to show the proper techniques and methods of practicing. I knew beforehand that the road I'm on will be long and that's why I'm so glad that I'm taking it with Saimi!
Very friendly and brilliant teacher
Saimi is very encouraging and patience teacher. She has lots of really good advice on violin techniques. She is also a lovely person!
