About Harold

Harold Reeves, born in Santa Barbara, CA and raised in San Diego, CA, holds a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance from the Eastman School of Music and a Master of Music in Violin Performance from the Cleveland Institute of Music. His mentors include Mikhail Kopelman, Ilya Kaler, Olga Kaler, Philip Setzer, Zvi Zeitlin, Glenn Dicterow, and Kathleen Winkler. During his pre-college years, he studied with Jeff Thayer, Michael Tseitlin, Rebekah Yoon, and Hernan Constantino in San Diego. He has collaborated with Eugene Drucker of the Emerson Quartet, performing First Violin on the Schubert Quintet in C, D. 956, at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido.

Formerly associated with Lincoln Center Stage and RWS Entertainment in New York City, Harold now serves as a founding member of the Aries Music Group based in Southern California. He performs on a 1949 Helmuth Ellersieck violin, from his grandfather, Harold Reeves Sr., an amateur violinist and WWII Veteran. His father is a Vietnam veteran and Harold is bi-racial with a Korean/American cultural upbringing.

Apart from music, Harold enjoys pursuits such as powerlifting, basketball, snowboarding, camping, fishing, and motorcycle riding. His greatest artistic influences are J.S. Bach and Yo-Yo Ma. His favorite sports to watch are NBA, NFL, UFC, and Boxing.

About the lesson

My teaching philosophy revolves around thorough technique development and instilling confidence for successful performances. I prioritize a deep understanding of technique, enabling students to apply it effectively while making the most of their practice time. I strive to cultivate effortless mastery, equipping students to overcome performance anxiety and excel in high-pressure situations through a strong technical foundation.

Central to my approach is promoting health and sustainability in violin playing, emphasizing relaxation and ergonomic techniques to improve sound quality and prevent injuries. Each student is honored as a unique artist, receiving tailored instruction that nurtures their individual needs and artistic potential. I guide their musical journey, offering support as they shape their own artistic identity and take ownership of their craft.

My curriculum focuses on enhancing musical artistry, interpretation, and technique, supplemented by an emphasis on music theory and musicianship skills. I adapt my teaching methods to suit each student's preferences and goals. Through engagement and inclusion, I incorporate students' musical interests and explore various genres and cultures. Celebrating their progress and milestones, I foster self-motivation and peer support within the musical community, ensuring that each student's musical journey is fulfilling and enriching.
