My son, Joseph, studied violin with Dr. Arthur Mikhailov from grade 9-12 after the sudden passing of his former teacher. Arthur worked patiently with him, fixing his technique, teaching him how to learn new music on his own, and adjusting intonation on stage while playing solo with an orchestra. Arthur helped him win top prizes in many local competitions, resulting in multiple solo performances with local youth and community orchestras. Joseph reached an advanced level in violin playing when he graduated high school.
He entered college as a STEM major, but his passion for music led him to add Violin Performance as a second major. Has Arthur not taught him to such high skill level, it would be impossible to excel in the double major from which he graduated with honors. He now performs professionally as a side gig, and we’re grateful for Arthur’s guidance and tutelage.
