104 Manhattan Ave.; Violin House Update; DBR Events

The year is off to a great start. We're running cello lessons in the violin house as renovation work is winding down at Paris Ave. One of our violin teachers, Azusa Chapman, is busy getting her studio up and running in the front room @ the Violin House. We welcome Ms. Chapman to our family as she settles into her 9 to 5 as managing director of The Four Season's Chamber Music Festival in Greenville. She'll be giving violin lessons in the Violin House as time permits and as her studio grows.

We have a number of students participating in the DBR Connecting Crossroads event @ East Carolina University the week of November 5-9. We'll have a cookout/porch event at the Violin House on Nov. 6th starting at 5:30. Please come out to eat and to meet DBR while he discusses what music might mean for west Greenville and Higgs.

Registration and Brief Spring Update

We have a few spots opening up for the Summer and Fall. If you're interested in a free sample lesson, please drop me a line at chris.nunnally@gmail.com.

Congrats to our senior Charlie Hill for his acceptance to UNC-Charlotte and N.C. State. Decision pending. The gaming world is about to get a brilliant mind, while we lose a very fun cellist. We'll miss you Charlie.

Congrats to all of the Eastern Youth Orchestra auditionees. Everyone did an excellent job.

Check us out on facebook and "Like" us to follow our West Greenville Project. Things are moving right along. Won't be long before music once again fills 108 Paris Ave.

Cheers!

Finally on the West Side

Well, we've finally moved. Although the physical studio is still coming together, we are excited about our new space located above Gawlick Violin Co., @ 402 Evans St. in Greenville, NC. The studio is above the shop and should provide our parents, students and siblings an exciting place to gather before, during, and after the lessons. I will soon post on places to visit, to shop, and to eat Downtown Greenville.

Happy Practicing!

Congrats Students!

Congrats to all Students and Parents for a wonderful recital last Sunday. I am very proud of how everyone performed...especially proud of those good cello positions!

Thanks again Dr. O'Brien for allowing us into your beautiful home and for being such a great accompanist.

Now, back to practice...
