Hello!
My name is Emily Derstine and I recently graduated from Elizabethtown College with a Music degree and a minor in Interfaith Leadership Studies.
I am a hardworking and dedicated violinist, violist, and teacher with 18 years of experience playing Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and 20th century music.
A few musical accomplishments I have attained are being the concertmistress of the Etown College-Community Orchestra for 3 years, winning the 2017 Concerto Competition and performing a solo concerto with the orchestra, a music improvement scholarship sophomore year of college, and have participated in many semesters of string ensembles on campus. I also am one of the music camp counselors for the Etown Music Camp.
For the last two years I have taught private lessons on the Etown College campus to a variety of students ages 6-16 on violin and viola and have thoroughly enjoyed being a teacher and being able to share my musical knowledge with my students.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, would like to start your child/children on violin or viola, or if you know someone who would! I love teaching and am excited to open up my own studio at home.
Thanks!
