CHO-LIANG LIN

Read bio

This session with the great violinist and teacher Cho-Liang Lin explores the pedagogical approach of his own teacher and mentor Dorothy DeLay, focusing on the principles and methods that shaped her approach to violin pedagogy. Topics may include psychological aspects of practice and performance, posture and physical setup, right-hand and left-hand technique, sound production, intonation, musical interpretation, and communication with students.

The presentation highlights how these elements functioned within her teaching approach and contributed to a distinctive and influential pedagogical style that helped shape generations of violinists, including Itzhak Perlman, Gil Shaham, Midori, Sarah Chang, Cho-Liang Lin himself and concertmasters of the main North American orchestras.

Participants are encouraged to have their instruments at hand and are invited to ask questions, which will enrich our collaborative learning environment.
