    About Me

    Hi! I’m Caleb, I am from Sant Lucia and have lived in many places around the world but I am excited to now live in Barcelona!

    I am a professional violist and dedicated music educator with a deep passion for helping musicians grow and succeed. My musical journey has taken me from my early beginnings in St. Lucia, to performing on some of the world’s most prestigious stages, including Carnegie Hall. I perform in many festivals abroad and with professional ensembles, I’ve toured internationally and collaborated with renowned artists, gaining invaluable experience that I bring to my teaching.

    I tailor my lessons to meet each student’s unique goals:
    • For beginners, I create a supportive and engaging environment to build a strong foundation and instill a love for music.
    • For intermediate players, I focus on refining technique, enhancing musical expression, and exploring more challenging repertoire.
    • For those aiming to enter or advance in competitions, I provide expert guidance on preparation, interpretation, and stage presence, drawing from my own experiences as a competition winner.

    My approach combines technical rigor with creative exploration, aiming to inspire confidence and joy in every student, whether they’re playing for fun or pursuing a professional path.
