About Tessa
Born in Edinburgh, Tessa attended St. Mary’s Music School before gaining her Bachelor of Music degree and Masters at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. While there, she studied with Maya Iwabuchi and Joseph Swensen and participated in masterclasses with Ilya Gringolts, Leland Chen and Simon Fischer. During her time at RCS, she was invited by Scottish Ensemble to perform at the Wigmore Hall as their Young Artist (2017) with guest soloist Alina Ibragimova. She also enjoyed performing with her string quartet who were chosen to represent RCS in the Cavatina Intercollegiate Chamber Music Competition in London. Tessa has spent her summers attending the Aurora Music Festival (Sweden), Cividale del Friuli International Music Festival (Italy) and Stift International Music Festival (the Netherlands). These have included masterclasses with Mihaela Martin, Eszter Haffner, Christian Altenburger and Daniel Rowland. As a keen chamber music player, she has twice attended Music Works, led by the London Haydn Quartet. As an orchestral player, Tessa has freelanced with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra including performances at the Proms and Aldeburgh Festival, as well as with The Orchestra of Scottish Opera, RSNO, Manchester Camerata and The Scottish Festival Orchestra. During her studies, she led the Edinburgh Youth Orchestra, the RCS modern Ballet orchestra, the RCS opera production of Dead Man Walking by Jake Heggie and opera company Raucous Rossini touring the UK and Italy. She has enjoyed teaching privately for 3 years, from very young children to adults! She has worked at St. Mary’s Music School as a violin teaching assistant for the Saturday Morning classes as well as on their summer courses.

I aim to create a relaxed and fun environment where the student develops the confidence to ask questions and experiment with their violin. I encourage their self-motivation and interest gained through the lessons so they remain passionate about learning in their own private practice.
