Please google “Adam Han-Gorski” – there will be about 2 million results in half a second, easier than writing here. With a debut in March 21, 1948 (can be seen on YouTube), I am one of the handful of musicians alive with the longest international career in the world.
With that kind of experience you can be certain to get the best instruction available anywhere, which will save you a lot of wasted time, bad habits and frustration. My musical heritage goes back to Wieniawski, Vieuxtemps and Joachim within four generations of teachers, there is no violinist alive with that kind of direct connection to the 19th century giants! Take advantage while you can, I am turning 80 on March 26 ;-)
