About Ava
Violinist and violist Ava Figliuzzi is a Minnesota native based in Philadelphia. In recent performances, she has appeared with Galatea Chamber Music and the Virginia, Williamsburg, and Richmond Symphonies.
Figliuzzi completed her master’s degree with Carol Cole at the Lynn Conservatory in Boca Raton, Florida, and her undergraduate work with Bayla Keyes at Boston University, serving in concertmaster and principal positions at both. While in school, she actively freelanced with Palm Beach Symphony, Nu Deco Ensemble, Symphony of the Americas, and Boston Chamber Symphony, and in 2019, backed Minneapolis-based hip-hop artist Dessa on her “Sound the Bells” tour.
She has received summer fellowships from Eastern Music Festival, Texas Music Festival, the Monteux School, Round Top Festival Institute, and Garth Newel Music Center. She also spent formative summers assisting and eventually coordinating Lakes Area Music Festival’s community engagement program—striving to make professional, live classical music accessible to audiences in her northern Minnesota hometown.
During her graduate studies, Figliuzzi received the 2023 M. Elizabeth “Maddy” Cumpton Endowed Memorial Award from the Lynn Conservatory and worked as a Palm Beach Arts Paper journalist. She has had the opportunity to perform in several masterclasses with renowned artists such as Ida Kavafian, Elmar Oliveira, Kathleen Winkler, Judith Ingolfsson, Peter Wiley, Joshua Bell, and the Muir, Calidore, and Daedalus String Quartets.

Thanks for checking out my profile! I aim to create a supportive and enjoyable environment and provide my students with individualized strategies to approach new skills. In my teaching, I find a balance of student-led creativity, technical foundations, and literacy in music theory and history. In each lesson, the first portion will typically cover scales, theory, and technique. The second part of the lesson will focus on repertoire for a performance or audition. I have experience teaching beginners, advanced players, and everyone in between.
