Teaching

Welcome to Jesper's Violin Studio : Where Music Becomes Communication

Violin lessons in the city of Zug

At the age of 11, I coached my first student: Back then, I taught my sister, who was four years younger, the basics of the violin within an hour, resulting in a small house concert together for our family friends. A complete success! Today, 20 years later, my passion for sharing the sound of the violin with my students has become professional - my curiosity about quick learning and improving on the violin has remained, and above all, my curiosity about ensemble playing and music as communication

Curiosity is the Magic Key

My neverending curiosity in discovering the 'golden sound' and in simplifying violin technique brings music to life, making every note tell a story.
Music is communication - communication is key in my lessons. Do you want to tell stories through sound? Are you looking for the perfect way to channel your 5-year-old's boundless curiosity into creativity? Are you curious about starting a new hobby after retirement? I'm curious about you!

Step into Jesper's Violin Studio, a light-filled and spacious room designed to inspire. Located just a 5-minute walk from the city of Zug main station.

Trained in Lucerne, London, Salzburg and Zürich , I've had the privilege of learning from the greatest teachers and mentors like Rudolf Koelman (in the tradition of legendary violin virtuoso Jascha Heifetz), Daniel Dodds, Fränzi Frick, and Anne-Sophie Mutter. As an internationally active soloist and chamber musician and founder of SEEKLANG Festival (Switzerland), I bring this rich experience to every lesson, guiding and supporting you to tell your own musical stories.
