Violin Lessons

Exploring the violin offers so many lessons regarding creativity, patience, discipline, and expressing your emotions, which is why bringing life to music is a process that I want to share with as many people as I can. I currently study at the New England Conservatory where I am constantly exploring new ways to shape and expand my thinking to better my understanding of music.

Why spend 6-8 hours sharpening my skills everyday if I’m not going to share what I’m learning along the way?

Teaching students ranging from 7 years old to 75 years old, I have gathered so much experience helping very beginners, amateurs and hobbyists, and even professionals reach their goals! Being a freelance violinist in Boston, MA means I’ve grown accustomed to playing everything from jazz, to fiddle, to even hip hop music! I am confident that I have the tools to aid you in your journey!

  • Luke J Hughes

    Freelance Violinist

    Michael started teaching me in early August of this year, and I am so glad I chose him for my teacher! He is an expert in this field, not only as a violinist, but as a teacher as well.

    Very personable, and patient. Would recommend him to anyone, no matter were they are in their musical journey.

  • Margaret Kemmerer

    Retired Equestrian Coach & Artist

    I am a dedicated adult student. I have been playing for a long time now, but starting as a student in her 50's. I have had a delightful, however tortuous, learning curve.

    Michael is concise, relaxed, empathetic and exceedingly astute as to the mission of my advancement.

    One of the aspects of Michael's teaching style which I've noticed is his sometimes-brevity. He will drop a comment and leave the thought for me to ponder and figure out. He will, conversely, at times explain in great detail a particular idea or technique.

  • Michael R.

    66 year old Business Owner

    I decided to play violin at 66 years of age and started lessons via Zoom with Michael Fisher who has made the experience enjoyable and productive.

    I run a company and I knew that I would have a difficult time keeping appointments for in-person study because of my schedule.

    Although I am early in my lessons, I feel very fortunate to have begun with Michael and have him as my teacher. Michael also happens to be a very nice person and will probably one day be a famous performing violinist.

  • Kelly Champagne

    Online Adult Student

    Michael is a kind, motivating, and caring teacher. He always gave positive reinforcement before he suggested what I needed to work on. He gave me new work just when I needed it so that I didn’t become bored with my studies.

  • Bernie Faustin

    Online Adult Student

    Michael is very patient with this older student and I couldn’t be more appreciative of him!! I am blessed to have Michael as my instructor, as he is a truly, very talented and gifted young man.
