About
I wholeheartedly love what I do, teaching and perfecting the remarkable instrument that the violin is! I am not only a seasoned international performer with more than twenty years experience, but a teacher with a Doctorate Degree - a combination hard to find today.
I would love to meet you and share my passion with you!

I took a couple of lessons with Angel to brush up on my violin technique, and they were absolutely worth it! He was able to quickly pinpoint a few areas that could use improvement, and helped me fix them. He has a kind and patient teaching style, while still giving helpful feedback. I'll be back soon for more lessons!

I have only had a handful of lessons with, Angel, but he has already improved my bowing and fingering, my attention to pitch, and he is introducing me to 3rd position, something I wasn’t even aware of after three years of following the Suzuki method.

Angel was such a pleasure to work with! Hiring him was one of the easiest things we did for the wedding because he was professional, easy to communicate with and experienced. He gave us a list of songs, but was also open to our requests. The day of, everything went without a hitch, so I didn't have to worry about a thing! Angel and his partner arrived promptly for our wedding ceremony, and all of our guests were very impressed by their performance. I highly recommend Angel for any of your wedding needs and I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Our daughter, Sylvi, has been taking violinlessons with Angel now for almost two years, and the progress she has made has been remarkable. We were nervous to start her on a challenging instrument at such a young age (she is 7), but we could not have found a more positive, supportive and encouraging teacher who really understands how to inspire children. We have appreciated Angel’s flexibility with the schedule, we and look forward to watching Sylvi grow as a musician with Angel as her teacher for years to come. -Teydin and Andrew Romanowsky

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have done my very best to offer a fair price. If anyone feels differently, please do not hesitate to ask!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I get to know the student personally and ease him/her into the joy of music making!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am an active performer with two or three concerts a week and travel regularly. I also have many students and am a juror at music competitions. Being in constant contact with my colleagues and current/past students helps me stay on the bleeding edge of the classical music business.
