Welcome to Cavatina Violin Studio, the teaching studio of violinist and vocalist, Carmen Lasceski-Custers offering private lessons to students of all ages and ability levels.
“When teaching, Carmen has a way of making you feel very comfortable and excited about what you’re playing. She chooses pieces that not only you love, but pieces that also challenge you to be a better musician, allowing you to develop confidence and love for music. Carmen has personally encouraged and helped me build my confidence in playing the violin, recognizing my strengths and building from those. She has definitely impacted my love for music, and I am very grateful for that.”
“Carmen’s fastidious ear for music allows her to observe your performance flaws as you begin playing the first few notes. It might be possible for many instructors to spot the weaknesses of a performer; however, Carmen’s capability to point to the root cause and propose an exercise to address the weakness is what makes her an excellent mentor.”

Private Lessons
The private lesson program runs year-round and offers violin and vocal lessons to students of all ages and ability levels including adult learners, beginners and advanced students looking to continue their studies at university.
“Carmen is a loving, nurturing teacher who can motivate students with her passion and patience. She has a way with children that nourishes their love and appreciation of music and theory. She talks with students, at their level. Her stickers are the best.
I had a timid little girl who wanted to learn the violin. She had never held one before but convinced me that this was the instrument she wanted to learn. Finding someone who would nourish, care and motivate her was scary. Carmen did not disapoint. Her love of music, children and teaching make her the ideal person to instill a love of music in your child.”
