MPF viola professors Sheila Browne and Susan Dubois will be teaching Karen Tuttle Viola Seminar classes throughout the festival. Famed violist and pedagogue Karen Tuttle (Juilliard, Curtis, Aspen, Banff) has taught generations of well-known viola professors and performers from around the world. Her holistic, healthy approach to playing is termed Coordination. This includes balancing the instrument, stance, and body awareness, leading to ease and comfort, resulting in a beautiful, resonant sound, more facile technique, expressive playing, reduced stage fright, reduced excess tension, and more.
