Angélica Cruz – Violin

Hi! My name is Angelica, I’m 29 years old and I’m a Cuban violist living in Vienna since two years ago. I finished my Bachelor’s degree at the University of the Arts in Havana, then I came to Austria to continue my improvement. I have more than five years of experience in teaching violin, viola, music theory and complementary piano, so no matter what level you are, I can teach you from the ground up. I specialized in classical music but I can also help you to play and learn your favorite songs.

I believe that music should be a source of joy and enjoyment before anything else. I don’t have a definite method, as I think I have to adapt to the needs and aptitudes of each student. I can give individual and group lessons (no more than 4 people), so I can also work with small chamber formats. I find it very important to connect mind and body with the instrument, so I like to emphasize from the beginning on relaxation and proper postures to avoid pain or contractions later on. I like to develop a series of relaxation and stretching exercises before each class.

My native language is Spanish, but I also speak English and am learning German. I hope to see you soon!
