Gregory joined Violinist.com on Jul 17, 2005

Gregory Lawrence earned his Bachelor of Music in Performance (violin) at San Diego State University where he studied with Dr. Theodore Brunson (with a strong emphasis in the Suzuki Violin School) and Mr. Howard Hill. He then continued his post graduate studies with Eudice Shapiro at the University of Southern California, and later with Mr. Noumi Fischer at his studio in Glendale.

Greg’s professional performing career has afforded him a wonderfully varied background in many different musical genres. He has worked with the San Diego Symphony, the San Diego Opera, the San Diego Chamber Orchestra, Starlight Opera, and the San Diego Lyric Opera. Greg also worked three tours with the Montovani Orchestra, including a three week tour of Japan. More recently Greg has been working with Orquesta de Baja in Tijuana, Mexico, as a violinist and subcontractor. He also works with Mariachi Champana Nevin, a virtuoso mariachi ensemble directed by it’s founder and virtuoso trumpeter, Dr. Jeff Nevin.

In January 2001, Greg founded the Cabrillo Chamber Orchestra (CCO), a professional 12-15 piece ensemble which specializes in the literature of the baroque, rococo and early classical periods. To date CCO has given fifteen very well received concerts at various venues throughout San Diego County, including two engagements at the California Center for the Arts Escondido, and two on the First Presbyterian Church (4th & Date, San Diego) concert series. Visit the CCO website at www.cco-sd.com.
CCO has just recently attained 501(c)3 status and plans to augment it's 2006-2007 season.

In addition to performing, Greg also maintains a private teaching studio of 20 students.
