My goal is to help other violinists that want to learn how to improvise in an easier way. My mission is to create contemporary lessons made for violinists. When I started learning the violin, I was classically-trained, but as time went on I transformed into a modern violinist. There were not many lessons on how to improvise or be creative on the violin, so I figured it out the hard way. I have toured internationally, recorded violin and string arrangements in my home studio, and taught lessons online. There are so many new options for violinists to create a living for themselves and I am here to help bridge the gap. My books include the subjects of jazz violin, gypsy jazz violin, rock violin and hip hop violin for all levels of playing.

BIOGRAPHY During college, Harry studied jazz guitar and piano, which led him to receive a Bachelor’s degree in jazz guitar studies. After college, he applied what he learned from the guitar and piano back to the violin, creating his own unique soulful style and sound. Now, his mission is to help other violinists explore other types of music by sharing his experiences and methods that helped him to become the modern violinist he is today. Harry has toured internationally and has performed and recorded with several renowned artists, including Chance the Rapper, Tony! Toni! Tone!, Chaka Khan, Carl Thomas, and D‘Wayne Wiggins.
