Concept

Every violinist who wants to develop a mature artistic personality needs to devote intense study to music, the instrument, and the body, as well as cultivating his/her imagination. The experience can be richly fulfilling if the student is provided with motivation and the most adequate advice at every step of the journey. As musicians, we all need to learn to ask the right questions. With his vast experience in performance and teaching, Stephan Picard has been supporting and encouraging violin students for several decades, attempting to help them find the most appropriate answers to their individual questions.

Every problem associated with violin technique can be traced back to a cause, which, in turn, leads back to a further cause, etc. Stephan Picard finds it important to analyse those causes in each individual case in order to help each student find the most effective path toward a long-term solution.

The teaching goal has been reached, in his view, when the students know their instrument and themselves to such an extent that they are prepared to go on growing as an artist for the rest of lives without requiring further assistance. When he sees that a student does not need him any longer, he feels confident that his training has finally reached its destination.
