from the Director, Sam Matthews
Sam's Strings Violin Shop + Paganini School of Music
I began violin when I was 4 as a Suzuki student, later switching to cello, and eventually pursuing a Bachelors and Masters in Cello Performance at the Peabody Conservatory. I taught cello and orchestra for many years, but growing the business and raising a young family made it challenging to do both. Now, I am absolutely thrilled to be adding a music education component to Sam's Strings Violin Shop via the Paganini School of Music!
Our Vision
To provide young musicians the opportunity to reach their goals and potential through access to experienced and dedicated teachers; group classes that expand their repertoire and instill confidence; masterclasses with regionally and nationally known artists to provide prospective on a grander scale. In addition, we hope that our classes will reinforce and further strengthen the excellent public school programs in our area.
