About
At William Violin Studio, I believe learning the violin should be joyful, inspiring, and tailored to each student’s unique goals. Whether you or your child is picking up the violin for the first time, preparing for youth orchestra auditions, or returning to music after a few years away, I try to create a warm and encouraging environment where progress feels natural and rewarding.
With years of teaching and performance experience, I specialize in helping students of all ages build a strong foundation in technique, musicianship, and confidence. My lessons combine classical teaching methods with modern, student-centered approaches so you can grow at your own pace.
Highlights:
- Patient and engaging
- Flexible approach
- Emphasis on technical foundation
A little about me:
I hold degrees in Violin Performance from the Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University. I perform regularly as a member of the first violin section of the Annapolis Symphony Orchestra and with the Baltimore Chamber Players. I also serve as the Artistic Director of Apollo Chamber Music, performing frequently in the DMV area.
I’ve studied with world class teachers, including the Associate Concertmaster of the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Principal Second Violin of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra.

Will and his group were absolutely lovely. Will was very responsive with the craziness of COVID and the holiday season when my wedding was. The music was amazing and I highly recommend for any occasion.

William and his ensemble were fantastic from start to finish. Throughout the process, they were very responsive and answered all my questions, and everything was exactly how I had asked it to be on the day. Their music was beautiful and all of the guests enjoyed listening to them. I would 100% recommend hiring them for a wedding.

My wife and I hired William to play at our wedding ceremony last weekend and he was amazing. He was flexible as we changed songs a few times and even provided a number of sample songs. He was the one vendor I didn’t have to worry about on the day of! Would 10/10 recommend.

Will was absolutely wonderful!! He played solo for our wedding ceremony and he was friendly, pleasant, approachable, punctual, flexible, and absolutely perfect. He played music for the prelude up to the recessional and it was beautiful and just what we wanted. We highly recommend Will for your event, you will not be sorry!!

I scoured the web for two weeks looking through dozens of violinists but William immediately stood out from the rest in technical skill and musicality. Even from the small snippets of him playing online, you can tell that he is extremely talented and able to imbue his music with beauty and emotion that are unparalleled.
And he most DEFINITELY delivered on all of that talent at our wedding. In particular, we had requested the song "Seasons of Love" for our entrance music, but we were worried that it would sound clunky on violin since all the violin covers we could find online sounded a little hollow. But William managed to play the most beautiful rendition of Seasons of Love that really started off the wedding ceremony on a magical note and STILL has our guests talking about it in awe!
Beyond his musical talent, William was also incredibly professional and responsive, which took away all the stress of having to coordinate musicians for the wedding day. He was also extra accommodating, and was happy to be paired with a pianist that he had not played with before. Truly I cannot recommend William more highly, an absolute gem for any wedding day!!!
