In honor of International Women’s Day, we want to share one of our musical heroes, Maud Powell. As one of America’s first violin superstars, she was a fearless warrior for female composers & performers. Here’s Amata violist with Maud’s statue in Peru, Il.
Maud Powell belongs in the same conversation. 1st International violin superstar from the US. Gave US premieres of Tchaikovsky & Sibelius violin concertos. Single-handedly played Sibelius concerto into the repertoire. Performed solo w/ Berlin, NY Phil. Many 1st recordings
Beautiful day to be at the elegant @HotelBaker1 for their tasting event. We’re serving up everything from Mozart to Billy Joel! #ClassicalMusic #Mozart #violin #viola #wedding #historicalsite
In honor of #StPaddysDay, here’s a little Irish fiddling by the Amata ladies. youtube.com/watch?v=SW2nji… #Irish #fiddle #violin #viola #StPatricksDay
We’ll be there today! Find us at Imago Creative Studios from 11am-1pm. We hear there will be doughnuts from @craftdonutscoff. What’s better than live music and gourmet doughnuts on a Sunday? #weddings #ExploreElgin #doughnuts #violin #viola #weddinggoals

We’re equally in love and perplexed by the mysteries of the viola.
It was an honor to perform alongside the EYSO faculty!

Though we’re not huge fans of the dress or Barbie’s proportions, we vote recognition, mostly because there’s also a violin version out there! #90skid #viola
We’ll be performing on @EYSO’s faculty recital on January 6 at 2pm at @ElginCommColl’s Spartan Auditorium. No tx or admission charge, but donations will be accepted to support student scholarships! #ExploreElgin #violin #viola #EYSO #MusicEd #ChamberMusic
