My Story - Master Teacher
World class violinist/recording artist Theresa Ellis plays healing resonances from many genres, classical to country, is highly skilled to show versatility with many music performing styles with the violin.
She started teaching at 10 years old, with neighborhood kid-friends who liked music too and she used an electronic table-top chord organ to teach music basics to them. Theresa hails from Detroit, migrated south to Nashville, Tennessee and has performed on the Nashville Opry stage and recorded with many famous musicians over the past 35+ years. Classically trained, she attended Indiana University School of Music, and graduated from University of Utah School of Music with a Bachelor of Music degree in Music Performance, Violin.
Combining years of experience throughout her career, Theresa Ellis has balanced the artist performer aspect with the art of coaching and instruction to the Master level. As she was always intrigued with the healing aspects of the musical frequencies, she went a step further, studied and practiced energy work, and eventually acquired licensing in Massage and bodywork as well. With the wisdom of knowing more about space and 'time', she also employs the perfect energy patterns of tuning instruments to 432 Hertz (instead of 440 Hz) in her musical performance. More about 432 "Verdi" or "Pythagorean" tuning with sacred geometry, a video. To know more about my journey with this it is explained on this site Tuning to the Planets & Other Vibrations here.
She has written many articles, and has authored a book on how to play the violin called “String Masters – a Progressive Method for the Contemporary String Player” for either private lessons or for the “class” model teaching or learning as the beginning student. It is for adults or children, and is available for violin, viola and cello with optional guitar/piano accompaniment part.
See Music Tips page for her book samples and to order her special musical arrangements and book "String Masters".
She is currently writing new music for several albums with her band www.SYNKOFA.com a World Music and Celtic Jazz ensemble as well as putting the final touches on another book called “Golden Beam: Heal Thy Self, Heal The World” which should be available in 2019.
Theresa raised two special needs boys who are now living on their own, and has two sweet granddaughters. She resides in the Ogden Valley area in Utah where she engages with worldwide visiting clients, in both the musical and healing arts.
