About Imogen

I was taught violin by some of the greatest teachers in Australia, Goetz Richter and Felicity Tsai, both of whom are members of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and co-ordinators / professors at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. I studied at the highly selective Conservatorium High School, completing violin 'level examinations' at AMEB AmusA level with high distinction, and HSC Music & Music Extension in Performance & Composition with high distinction.

At age 15, I discovered my love for songwriting, and began releasing violin-based electronic pop music under the moniker Lupa J to immediate critical acclaim. I was nominated as a finalist in Triple J’s Unearthed High competition for an unprecedented two years running, and by the time I graduated high school in 2015 had signed with a booking agency who secured me support slots on national tours with the likes of Grimes, Sarah Blasko, Tegan and Sara & Alice Glass.

Since 2017, I've run electronic production workshops for the likes of Ableton, Box Hill Institute, Darebin Youth Centre, Music NSW and New Age Noise Collective. I now also teach violin at School of Loving Music in North Melbourne, and feel enraptured by the possibilities of nurturing a relationship between student and instrument that is rewarding, fun, and most importantly: guided by the student.

About the lesson

I teach violin to anyone of any age - it's never too late to start! My focus is on building healthy, sustainable technical foundations & a positive emotional relationship with the instrument - the primary instrument in violin playing is the mind & body. As I learned from the Alexander-technique informed teaching of Goetz Richter, great violin playing is made possible by eliminating stress and tension physically and psychologically.

I believe it's important to let the student's goals inform my teaching method - there is no singular correct approach. While building a foundation, I generally teach from the AMEB technical workbooks, with the option to participate in exams - but if a student would prefer a more casual approach to learning violin, or would like to focus on other styles, I can absolutely offer flexible, alternative approaches to teaching. As someone who uses violin in experimental ways in contemporary pop / electronic music, I'm open to anything - not to mention, I'd happily share my knowledge in running violin through looping & effects pedals any day!
