I am a professional violnist and teacher. I am almost totally a Dounis product, having discovered long ago (along with many others) that the Galamian approach doesn't really work. (One of my teachers who studied with Galamian at Curtis said that he could forgive Galamian what he didn't know what about violin playing if he had known anything about music. Once I had enough money, I stopped playing professionally ( Gigs are lucrative, but not fun). I now take students only for a brief time for specific problems.
