Isaac Malkin, founder and artistic director of the Academy of Music Summer Festival, received his training in Russia. His exceptional background derives from the rich tradition of the Russian Violin School founded by Leopold Auer. This noble tradition encompasses technical perfection, beautiful tone, and passionate music making. Jascha Heifetz, Nathan Milstein and Misha Elman are among the outstanding performers whose virtuosity represents this heritage.
Mr. Malkin has achieved recognition as a successful and highly sought after violin teacher in Russia, Israel and the United States. He has taught at the Israeli conservatory in Tel Aviv, the University of California at San Diego and the State University of New York at Purchase, among other schools. Mr. Malkin's students have become teachers, soloists, and members of chamber ensembles and orchestras. He has been highly praised by internationally known violinists and teachers such as Felix Andrievsky, Boris Belkin, Joseph Gingold, Henry Roth, Vladimir Spivakov and Isaac Stern. At the present time, Mr. Malkin is on the faculty of the Manhattan School of Music and the Aaron Copeland School of Music at Queens College, CUNY. He founded the Academy of Strings at UCSD and is the founding directory of The Academy of Music at Ramapo College, NJ. |
