About Abigail
I am a violinist, vocalist and producer based in London, UK. My performances are influenced by blues, classical, folk and jazz styles. Some of my performance credits include YUNGBLUD, Oh Wonder, Chaka Kahn and Chinchilla.
Born in Florence, Massachusetts (USA), I began playing violin at the age of four, immersing myself in classical and folk music. I was a member of New England Conservatory Prep. School, playing in their orchestras and chamber ensembles. I was also a member of the Boston Youth Philharmonic Orchestra (BPYO), performing in their New York Times critically acclaimed Carnegie Hall debut, conducted by Benjamin Zander. I was a member of the Springfield Youth Orchestra (SYO) as well, serving as concert mistress for two seasons. During this time, I was the winner of both the Rodes Concerto Competition and the SYO Concerto Competition, as well as winning awards in fiddle competitions around the New England area.
As a student at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA, I began exploring different genres such as jazz and hip-hop. Aside from my own performances and compositions, I was a regular session musician, playing, recording and working with bands such as Ben Folds, Antwon Stanley, Buffalo Rose, and Nevada Color.
By the time I moved to London to study jazz violin at Guildhall School of Music and was awarded a Global Talent visa by the UK Arts Council after my studies. Since then, she’s worked with producer Haydn Bendall (Kate Bush) at Abbey Road’s iconic Studio Two and collaborated as a session violinist and arranger for artists like YUNGBLUD, Jamie Campbell Bower, Oh Wonder and Chinchilla.

I believe that each student has a different learning style, and it is my job as a teacher to help them achieve all that they can by tailoring my approach to how they learn. I balance my lessons by focusing on individual interests and technical work so that my students are getting better overall through what they love doing. I've designed an online curriculum that combines video call lessons and additional recordings that you will have access to as you learn. Whether it's playing a Mozart Sonata or improvising to Billy's Bounce, I would love to help you get your violin playing to where you want it to be!

Perfect! Just had my first lesson with Abby and I can already tell that we're a great fit! As an adult learner, I feel like you want a sense of structure in the lesson (to establish a good educational foundation) but also fun (after all, you're doing this in your hard-earned free time!), and Abby provides all of this and more. I highly recommend her.

Abby is an incredible violin teacher. Her ability to communicate articulately the idea she is trying to convey is only surpassed by her approach and style. She is a true professional with a skill set to match! I highly recommend her!
