On July 31st, at the Sturgeon Bay Community Church in Sturgeon Bay, students of Lori Meyer participated in a one hour technique class followed by individual instruction with Marilyn McDonald. Marilyn McDonald is a Professor of Violin at Oberlin Conservatory and is an experienced soloist as well as teacher. Marilyn McDonald performs with the Peninsula Music Festival Orchestra (see complete bio of Marilyn on the Peninsula Music Festival website at: www.musicfestival.com.)
The students who attended the Technique Class and Master Class with Ms.Marilyn McDonald benefited greatly from her instruction! During the group class, Ms. McDonald worked on scales, different bowing styles, general technique, and vibrato. When working with individual students, Ms. McDonald listened to individual students perform solo pieces that had prepared and gave positive comments as well as helped them improve their performance. Most students worked on producing a full sound using full bows with a relaxed approach.
