[REVIEW: Google, 5 stars] I find Rhiannon to be trustworthy and helpful.
Whether you are taking private lessons with her or purchasing a fine instrument online, I am confident she will always deliver consistent quality and expertise.
I feel a difference in Salmon Arm since Rhiannon Nachbaur came here. Most string musicians were low profile and many people were not aware that we even had violin teachers in town. She has added so much more life to the public’s impression and exposure to violin music and the music community as a whole has awakened.
I have seen Rhiannon in concert, in lessons with my daughter, Blythe, and during her "Strings Alive Festival" last April. I am a musician myself, an adjudicator, curriculum creator, performer who studied and taught both in Canada and abroad.
Rhiannon is popular with her students because of how she relates with young people. She is nurturing and fun, not a stuffy old fuddy-duddy! My daughter admires her deeply and I know many young girls aspire to be violinists after seeing Rhiannon play and teach.
Rhiannon's creativity has led to several new events in Salmon Arm including concerts and Strings Alive. I thought Strings Alive was very creative and inspirational. It brought violin playing and education in the area to a whole new level. My daughter, husband and I enjoyed being part of it.
I was impressed to learn that Rhiannon acted as a symphony mentor for one of her students this month. She genuinely cares about the experience her students have in playing music.
I am amazed at how she delicately balances classical violin playing with her fiddling.
She juggles her teaching, rehearsals and performing manages to get everything done.
