Duet Sessions

 

Are you looking for a new musical lease of life and

longing to play classical music with a professional musician?

 

 

¯         Unlock your potential and discover the joy of duets, with

                  a local, highly trained, professional Violinist and Violist!         ¯

 

 

 

 

If you are a violin, viola or 'cello player, interested in expanding your repertoire, ensemble and performance skills, then get in touch with Pauline for duet fun and coaching on a weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis.

 

Whether you live in Wotton-under-Edge or the surrounding area, she can travel to you to play duets. With over 30 years of performance experience as a soloist, chamber and orchestral musician, Pauline has much to offer in these one-to-one sessions. She also offers her services as a string accompanist for the new ABRSM examinations, should you (or your child) wish to explore those piece options.

 

Already established in Wotton, teaching both the violin and the viola to children and adults - beginners, intermediate and advanced – Pauline welcomes all. Afterall, music is there to be enjoyed and shared, no matter what stage you are at! Whether for fun or as a serious hobby, learn chamber music and performance skills, alongside developing your playing and general musicianship. Playing duets is great fun and rewarding and a very useful tool to gain confidence too! Duet playing is also a vital stepping stone towards ensemble and orchestral playing, and a wonderful option -particularly during current times- whilst not all youth, university and amateur orchestras or courses have returned to normal. 

 

Sheet music covering a range of styles is provided for these Duet Sessions. Explore Baroque, Classical, Romantic and 20th Century music. A selection of folk and jazz pieces are available, as are all sorts of Christmas favourites! 

 

 

Enquire through the form on the contact page about gift vouchers for any type of tuition, at any time of year and for any occasion. You can book single or multiple sessions to surprise a loved one.

 

 

Suggested duration of Duet Sessions to book:

 

for adults - 45, 60 or 90 mins

for children - 30 or 45 mins

 

Should you wish to explore chamber music on a larger scale, you may be interested to know about the Day Courses Pauline is offering, which include chamber music coaching for full strings (both for pre-formed groups and for strangers coming together for the first time). Alternatively, you can sign up for specific violin and/or viola days, to play with a similarly enthusiastic group of violin and/or viola players, exploring music written or arranged specially.
