About Gundula
I have 25 years of experience in teaching the violin, and the piano, mostly one-to-one. I taught all ages and levels, mostly private students, but also at some institutes and schools in Germany and the UK.
My experience includes 15 years of teaching workshops and masterclasses for Balkan/Gypsy/Eastern European music, improvisation, ensemble playing and music interpretation. I have led endless students through Grade exams, GCSE and A-level music performance exams, and prepared them for auditions.
I have students from 3 to 75 years of age. Since 5 years I also teach one-to-one classes and workshops in Balkan/Gypsy singing. The main focus of the lessons include classical training to pass college, A-level and grade exams, students who have problems with RSI and other physical issues, and students who needed help and support in overcoming performance and exam fears.

As well as being trained as a classical violinist, I have been fortunate enough to have extensively studied a wide variety of musical styles, including jazz, Romany Gypsy, and Eastern European folk. Additionally, I have vast experience with the Alexander technique as well as other comprehensive methods. This training, in combination with my experiences as a performing violinist and 25 years of coaching allows each lesson to be grounded, effective and unique. I regularly accompany students on the piano in the lessons as extra coaching for exams and performances.

Gundula's violin lessons are not just high quality tuition, they are first and foremost lots of fun. She has always kept me motivated, making me enjoy the learning process over the years without it ever feeling like a chore. This is through the choice of music as well as a structured, step by step approach. This has been very important to me as an adult learner.
Gundula leads me through a journey of small incremental steps where I make continuous improvements. She is also quite versatile with the piano and you don't have to look for any other accompanist for the grade exams.
She complements classical teaching methods with creative approaches, e.g. playing by ear which helps in recognising sound intervals. This supports an understanding and connecting to the music and as a result one's violin playing becomes more than just a mechanical process.
I certainly would recommend Gundula as a teacher to all who expect more from learning music than just reproducing notes.I have known Gundula Gruen for nearly four years, firstly as a conductor and performer in my orchestra and now, for the last year, as my violin, singing and piano teacher.
Finally, I have found a teacher who is both an experienced professional not only in classical violin, but other musical genres and a very warm, passionate and encouraging person.I feel very confident that I will continue to grow in the abovementioned skills with Gundula as a teacher. She has some outstanding strengths such as pace, energy, patience and attention to detail. In addition, she is the first teacher I have had who has taken an active interest in my all round musical development, activities and passion.
I can recommend her without hesitation.View more recommendations
