About SFCM’s Violin Department

Transform your playing in the heart of the Bay Area music scene. About 50 students study violin at SFCM, learning from world-class faculty members, including the concertmasters of the nearby San Francisco Symphony, Opera, and Ballet ensembles. As a violinist at SFCM, you’ll perform with your peers, explore new possibilities for your instrument, and develop your voice through music from the baroque to the new.

Study viola at SFCM and bring this traditionally mid-range instrument to the vanguard of the performing world. Four faculty members and about 20 students make up SFCM’s viola department. Studio sizes are kept small, ensuring performance opportunities and tailored instruction for each student in the department. Ensembles available to viola players include baroque and early-music ensembles, contemporary groups, and the Conservatory Orchestra.
