Siem began the study of violin at age three when his interest was piqued upon hearing the cassettes his mother used to play for her children. He went on to study at Eton College and Girton College, Cambridge, and continued his violin studies with Itzhak Rashkovsky and Shlomo Mintz. He performed his first concerto with an orchestra at age 15, and played with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at age 18.[7] He has gained recognition in the past few years by playing alongside artists such as The Who and Miley Cyrus. Among his fans include Lady Gaga and Katy Perry.

I played the Beethoven Violin Concerto in D Major last year in Turkey. I waited for 30 years to play that concerto. My goal was never to be a violinist. I just wanted to play that piece. It was a special moment.

I have two, in London. They show me great violins that come through their shops. Florian Leonhard, a German guy, and J. & A. Beare. Through Beare, I had a copy of my violin made by Peter Beare, and I love it. He makes beautiful violins that are a pleasure to play.

I exercise about three times per week. Strength training on big muscle groups. Posturally, playing the violin can be taxing. Exercising my back can give me longevity as a player, plus I enjoy the endorphin release.

I was drawn to the sound of the violin, and they encouraged me, they did their best to make it happen for me, but they never pushed me in one direction or the other. I was pretty much left to pursue my dreams, and I have always pushed myself.

If you were stuck on a desert island, name your top five must-haves.

I would need a great book, maybe Short stories by Somerset Maugham, my violin, a bar so I can make gin cocktails, a good outfit, and a dog.

What is the one question you wish a journalist would ask you?

I wish a journalist would ask, what is your purpose as a violinist, and my answer would be to be moved and to move people through music.


Yes you can do some serious sawing and break a bow hair. I do this too often with the country band I play with. Without a lot of loud musicians, I have a hard time breaking hairs. When I get around the loud ones, hair breaks all the time. I guess I'm overplaying the violin, and using more force in response to trying to hear myself.


Don't know about bow hair, but Paganini used to do this with violin strings. He used to weaken the E, D, and A ahead of his public performances, so that all of the strings would break except for the G--on which he would then do his tour-de-force finale.

You chose to study Music at the University of Cambridge rather than enrol at a violin-focused conservatoire. Why was it important for you to have a broad understanding of music rather than concentrate solely on your technical training?

Violinist Charles Rex was born into a musical family in Winter Park, Florida, where his father was a composer and instructor at Rollins College and his mother taught piano. He started his violin studies at age four under Alphonse Carlo, professor of violin at Rollins. Following his solo debut with the Florida Symphony at age 13, he won the Hinda Honigmann Scholarship Award to the Brevard Music Center in North Carolina and toured as soloist with the BMC Orchestra throughout North and South Carolina.

HOW DID YOU BEGIN VIOLIN? My godfather was concertmaster of the Florida Symphony. He discovered that I had perfect pitch and gave me my first violin lessons when I was four. As soon as I got a violin in my hands, I knew I wanted to be a violinist.

For over three decades, Siem has channeled his own passion into the singular focus of perfecting the violin. Keep in mind, however, that he started at age 3, so after so many years of study, he is just coming into his own as a young virtuoso and man of his own time.

I'm jealous of Charlie Siem. That's a fact. The 26 year-old British violin virtuoso plays a mean fiddle, has cheekbones that caught the eye of Dunhill (he lent his mug to their Spring 2011 advertising campaign), has serenaded everyone from Lady Gaga to Vivienne Westwood, and on top of it all manages to look the epitome of dapper while playing his soothing "I Allegro Moderato". Oh, and he's one of the few men Karl Lagerfeld shot (above) for his new book The Little Black Jacket. This kid has some serious game. Gearing up for his next New York performance on June 25th at Le Poisson Rouge, we dug through Charlie's iPod, and picked his brain about the songs he can't stop listening to. You'd be surprised... Siem can get down with some gritty French hip-hop.

He is a magna cum laude graduate of the Schwob School of Music where he studied viola with Manuel Diaz, a former student of the legendary William Primrose, and the father of international viola superstar and President of the Curtis Institute of Music, Roberto Diaz. He received his Master of Music degree, summa cum laude, at the University of Texas at Arlington where he studied viola as a student of Catherine Forbes and studied early childhood music education and music learning theory with Dr. Diane Lange. Charles has also studied violin pedagogy at Indiana University with Mimi Zweig and has completed hundreds of hours of Suzuki teacher training at the American Suzuki Institute in Stevens Point, Wisconsin.

As a professional musician, he has played viola and violin in a wide array of orchestras, chamber groups, and many other diverse performing ensembles across the country. His multi-faceted career includes teaching, performing, administration, conducting research in the field of string pedagogy, writing, and presenting lectures and workshops on various topics.

Since 2012, Wetherbee has served as associate professor of violin at the University of Colorado Boulder. He was an alumnus of the National Repertory Orchestra, ran the Snake River Music Festival in Dillon, Colo. for many years and became Concertmaster of the Boulder Philharmonic in 2014.

Charles Rufino, born in New York in 1952, has been immersed in the art of the violin since 1974. His apprenticeship at the Newark School of Violin Making in England included periods of study at the great London workshops of J&A Beare, and W.E. Hill & Sons.

He returned to New York in 1977 for further training in violin making and restoration under V.Y. "Nigo" Nigogosian. In 1980 he traveled to Chicago to begin a four year association with Carl Becker & Son of Chicago, personally assisting Mr. Becker in the creation of a number of Becker instruments.

In 1984 Charles Rufino opened his own studio in New York making violins, violas, and cellos, and working actively with leading musicians. Today his instruments are played in orchestras across the United States, from the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra to the Santa Barbara Symphony.

His extensive studies of traditional violin making and related cultural topics have given him a unique perspective and Mr. Rufino is an active teacher, lecturer and consultant. In 1986 he helped Nigo Nigogosian establish the now world-famous Oberlin Restoration Workshop and was the staff lecturer. Charles Rufino has delighted audiences for years with his witty and enlightening illustrated lectures, including his Art and Lore of the Violin, a journey through time and cultural history. One of his more recent projects was an invitation by the Yamaha Corporation to assist in the design and development of a new violin.

Charles Parker, violinist, has studied with some of the most renowned teachers in the field, including Ivan Galamian, Paul Zukofsky, Isidore Cohen and Helen Kwalwasser. He made his first musical tour of Europe at the age of 15 with the School Orchestra of America, which cemented his love of the violin and music. Parker teaches violin and chamber music for Haverford College, Bryn Mawr College and Temple Music Prep. Many of his past students have attended prominent music conservatories and are now members of distinguished orchestras as well as faculty at institutions such as Oberlin Conservatory of Music. He has been the coordinator of chamber music for Temple University's Center for Gifted Young Musicians since its inception in 1985, and was given their Inspiration Award in 2011. Throughout those years he has worked with amazing talents such as Sarah Chang, Elizabeth Pitcairn, Elena Urioste and Sheila Browne. He was member of the Opera Philadelphia orchestra, the Philadelphia Ballet Orchestra, Orchestra 2001 and other prominent Philadelphia organizations. He was the artistic director and violinist of The Davidsbund Chamber Players, has toured internationally with the New York Chamber Players, and was a core member of the Vermont Mozart Festival for over 25 years.

Charlie Siem credits his family roots to his intense musical nature. A distant relative of Ole Bornemann Bull, a nineteenth century violinist and composer, this progenitor has had a serious influence on the way Siem embraces music, and the mysticism that can transport you to another time and place through sound. His excitement is centered on the romantic personae, shrewdness, and intelligence Ole Bull was known for, and he tries to emulate those qualities. Similarly, one of his grandmothers was an actress, and Siem approaches every piece of music as a character to be assumed. Performing on stage, he plays the role required for the piece.
