About

Hi there! My name is Alyssa and I'm a professional violinist based in NYC. My work has taken me all over the globe, from playing my own solo arrangement of the National Anthem for the New York Mets at Citi Field, to touring Northern Italy with the Oxford University Orchestra, to collaborating with the Piano Guys at the National Theatre in Washington D.C.
I've played violin for 14+ years and graduated magna cum laude from Columbia University with a B.A. in Music, studying under Grammy award-winning violinist Richard Rood. While I'm primarily classically trained, I have extensive experience in pop/jazz/folk music and love to share my string arrangements & covers with my 10,000+ followers on TikTok (@alyssakimviolin).
My teaching experience includes:
- 6+ years teaching violin in Northern VA and New York City
- Violin faculty member for the American Youth Philharmonic's Summer String Academy
- Founding Member & educator for the Back to Bach Project's Northern VA Chapter
- Ukulele Songwriting Camp Mentor for Sound Impact

Alyssa has been a wonderful violin teacher for my daughter! If I could give her 10 stars, I would! My daughter looks forward to her violin lessons every week, which says so much about the way Alyssa teaches. She’s patient, kind, and knows how to connect with kids, making learning feel exciting instead of stressful. I’ve watched my daughter grow in confidence and skill, but also in her love for music. All thanks to Alyssa’s guidance!

Alyssa was excellent! So talented, very professional, was able to adapt to last minute changes, and made our wedding that much better. Do not hesitate to book her!

I wanted to get back into playing violin as an adult, and taking lessons with Alyssa has been such a great experience! She’s incredibly patient and encouraging, and I'm honestly amazed at how much I've been able to improve. The lessons are always the highlight of my week, and I’ve really regained my confidence and enjoyment in playing again. I’d highly recommend Alyssa to anyone thinking about learning or picking the violin back up!
