First Fridays With Uptown Violins

With the start of the New Year, we are launching our new blog, First Fridays with Uptown Violins! You can check us out at the beginning of every month to read up on all things violin. Topics range from pedagogy and product reviews, to the relationship between music, the visual arts, and literature. You can catch up on some of our highlight performances, including playing at the Country Music Awards, giving a recital in Paris, France, soloing with the Wichita Youth Symphony, and even performing at the Dallas Cowboys Halftime show! Whether you are a fellow violinist or a music aficionado, we hope you join us First Fridays for some Uptown fun!
