"I came to know Rita from Stradivari Strings when I was looking to start adult cello lessons. She is a dedicated cello teacher who tries various methods to help me improve my cello playing skills. As a beginner I experienced a lot of difficulties in terms of intonation. and rhythm. She helped me to focus and concentrate on areas that I need to overcome. She is strict but yet very encouraging, takes each lesson personally and invests her time & energy to help me advance further in my playing. She also went through a stringent process with me for my cello selection, explaining the made of each cello, the different types of cello bows, testing and showing me the difference of each material and how would it affect the sound of the music. Her expertise separates her from the average music teacher from other schools." --- Zoey Ng

"Violin and Bow selection was a unique experience curated by Rita. As a beginner, I have a minimal musical background and only knew how to play the piano but at a beginner level. During the selection process, Rita provides insightful nuggets of information about the instrument, luthier, etc. Most importantly, she advise me to choose the violin and bow based on feel. This allows me to appreciate and selecting it objectively. This experience allows me to understand more of the instrument. I've learned a lot through this experience on the violin's characteristics and the tone it produces that I prefer and finding my perfect violin and bow within my budget." --- Nicholas Tan

"I live and worked in Beijing many years back and bought a cello there. Since relocating back to Singapore, I decided to re-start cello lessons and got in touch with Stradivari Strings. Rita recommended an awesome Cello coach and also advised me to bring my cello to her for assessment before lessons start. She advised that I had selected a good quality cello, however I could enhance the tone and playability of the cello by customizing a good Despiau cello bridge and also replace the sound post with one cut from premium wood. I am glad I went ahead with her recommendations. The end result is a powerful sounding cello which challenges me to improve all the time. Thanks!" --- Jeannie

TESTIMONIALS

I have a strong desire to learn to play the violin and started adult beginner violin lessons with Stradivari Strings. As I did not have any music background before starting adult violin classes, Rita patiently coached me rhythmic training, note reading and music theory in addition to the tips of playing the violin. Rita is a passionate, encouraging and enthusiastic violin teacher. She uses different teaching methods during violin lessons. This helps me to easily understand the concepts during my violin classes. My very first violin selection would not be smooth without her reliable advice and opinion. She also, helped me figure out my needs based on my budget.

Sharon Lee

Violin student
I have been always eager to perform violin someday after years of experience in playing the piano. The first time when I fell in love with the violin was after enjoying the duet performance by pianists and violinists. And my journey with the violin finally started at Stradivari Strings. With Rita’s detailed guidance, I chose my favourite violin and violin bow. Thanks to Rita also for helping me choose Mr.Yeo as my violin teacher. Every violin lesson to me is informative and Mr Yeo has been so supportive that he could appreciate every single improvement I have made. I was not confident when the sound was out of tone or too sharp. Howeverwith,Mr Yeo’s expertise, friendly personality and passion when playing the violin, I have received lots of courage and motivation to practice more. When struggling between pursuing my master’s degree and work, Mr Yeo and Rita has helped me re-arrange the classes to fit my schedule. Thank you Mr Yeo for your patience and encouragement, I will give the Grade 4 ABRSM exams my best shot!

One of the best things that happened to me this year is getting in touch with my cello teacher Ms Rita. I started lessons since January and have come to enjoy my Singapore cello lessons for a variety of reasons: First, for effective learning to occur, it’s important that there is a personal student-teacher fit. This is the first consideration in learning an instrument on a 1-1 basis. Right from the get-go, I found Rita to have an excellent social and communication skills and a winsome sense of humour, a prerequisite for me. This has made cello classes for me really enjoyable. Second, very early in our pre-lesson discussion, Rita impressed me as a very knowledgeable person about the art and manufacture of the cello and cello bow. Her intimate historical and technical knowledge of how the instrument is crafted and it’s impact on its sound quality (and intrinsic value) persuaded me that I have made a good decision to take beginner cello lessons from her. A third reason why I eagerly look forward coming to Stradivari Strings each week is no less because of her unusual pedagogical approach – fun, supportive, encouraging, and pertinently informative. More delightful for me is her use of taking live videos of parts of my lesson for me to view as personal feedback based on the laudable principle of “seeing yourself play as

I had an amazing experience with Stradivari Strings, beginning with my first cello and cello bow purchase and subsequent cello lessons. The owner, Rita, is knowledgeable on all matters pertaining to string instruments. Rita is must-see for anyone interested in purchasing quality string instruments (violin, viola, cello and bows). Cello lessons with Rita is challenging yet enjoyable. I always look forward to our next lesson. Thanks a lot, Rita.

I have been taking violin classes from Mr Yeo for since 2016, and each lesson has been very enjoyable and fun. Mr Yeo is always smiling and very happy which puts me at ease while learning difficult passages or techniques. He is also very happy to explain to me the reasoning behind certain playing techniques which helps me appreciate playing the violin even more. I can confidently say that my progress is largely due to Mr Yeo’s dedication and professionalism as a teacher. I would strongly recommend Mr Yeo to anyone who would wish to start violin lessons!

Kenneth Zhang

Adult violin student
When I first walked into Stradivari Strings to re-string my violin, I didn’t know I’ve walked into a whole new world of experience. Rita could tell I have a lot of interest in picking up violin. And with her sharp eyes, she could tell my old violin was factory made and of low quality. She then proceeded to set up an appointment with me for a new violin since I was so interested. During the appointment, Rita made sure to let me play and emote with each violin and bow, it was a hands on session of playing on a range of violin and bow. She also shared her vast knowledge and experience on violin with me. Throughout the 2 hour appointment on selecting violin and bow, I was taking in all the teachings she had to offer. Alas, I found one that I really loved, although a little out of my budget, Rita took the time and offered to help with financial planning. The class afterwards with Mr Yeo was also amazing. I had learnt so much in 45 mins that I could play twinkle twinkle little star within that session. Thank you Rita and thank you Stradivari Strings for the immersing experience! Highly recommended!

I have been learning violin for over 5 years. While visiting Singapore, I went to all the violin shops in town. I found my dream violin at Stradivari strings. The owner, Rita, helped me to select violin. She is so knowledgeable in this field! Each violin has its own character and tone quality. While selecting my violin, I also had detailed coaching from Mr Yeo, a very experienced violin coach. He pointed out my bow hold issues and gave me pointers on shifting and executing vibrato. My tone and intonation improved a lot after I learnt these important tips from Mr Yeo. He is an inspiring teacher. Just one class from him improved my playing. With that, I was able to attain distinction in ABRSM Violin grade 5. When I return to Singapore this year, I will take more masterclasses with Mr Yeo. Thank you Stradivari Strings! You are wonderful.

My daughter wanted very much to learn cello as her second music instrument, but without any knowledge of cello, we searched online to find out where to buy cello. My daughter being concerned not to overspend her parent’s money, had wanted to buy a second hand cello online. However I managed to persuade her not to do so. We found Stradivari Strings and arranged an appointment with Ms Rita. We had such a wonderful experience — Rita spent a total of 3 hours with my daughter. During the selection process, she patiently explained the different wood qualities in making cello and bows, and guided my daughter to play on the range available so she can identify the tone quality she likes. With Ms Rita’s unhurried assistance, my daughter was allowed to test play the range of cello and bows. Finally she found the perfect cello and bow and will start with a professional level coach for lessons. My whole experience with Stradivari Strings is very positive. And I am very happy that we came to the right shop and enlisted the assistance of the right person to get the perfect cello and bow for my daughter.

Lai Meng

Parent
Introduced to Stradivari Strings by owner, Ms Rita. The service extended was bar none, and above all, highly informative, with immaculate violin selections of multiple price range. It was a pleasant surprise to have sat through 10-12 violins and the opportunity to try violins and bows of extensive range. The experience of a “violin & bow” fitting will be etched in memory as one of the memorable service rendered for me personally, especially for violin beginners, wanting to explore the different options in buying violins. Rita is patient and has a distinct sound knowledge of violins and the respective bows, and the pairing session truly made it more enjoyable. To me, her service is absolutely immaculate, with attention to detail and most of all, sincere. Thank you Rita, for being a catalyst to my musical journey, learning the violin. Never have I seen, an excellent service anywhere here, and it’s your service that inspires us to rid the procrastination and dive straight in! Highly recommended!

Hans

Student
I moved from the United States to Singapore couple years back and brought my beloved old violin along. It has not acclimatized well and I had issues with the sound post dropping numerous times. Rita from Stradivari Strings assessed the violin and advised that I go for customized sound post cut from Italian wood. This would enhance the tone of the violin and the issue of sound post dropping will be solved. I am glad that I took her advice. My violin plays brilliantly now. I recommend any serious violin player to engage the services of Stradivari Strings’ luthier.

Anita

Student
We come to Singapore during summer holidays to visit family annually. My children need to keep up with their violin and cello practice during this time period, and we rent the instruments from Stradivari Strings. They have fractional sizes all the way to full size violin and cello available for rent. We also managed to locate great cello and violin teachers from Stradivari Strings, to coach and practice with my children. This is excellent one-stop service from Stradivari Strings!

Emma

Student
I have been learning the cello for one year. The lessons are practical focus and I find that I needed theory lessons to supplement the practical part, so that I get a total understanding of reading music. Stradivari Strings found me a music theory teacher who comes to my workplace for music theory lessons during my lunch break. This is a perfect arrangement and I have been progressing well.

Lionel

Music Theory Student
Technique is of paramount importance when it comes to playing music. I have been with teacher Joyce (bamboo flute) for 2 years. She has taught me the necessary fundamentals in the playing of the Chinese flute. Under her patient teaching and guidance, I achieved distinction in both grade 5 and 8 dizi examinations. I believe that her teaching is commendable and very suitable for students who are still grasping their basics in Chinese flute.

Leslie Low

Student
My 8 year old daughter and I have been learning guitar basics from Joel for a few months now. Joel is very patient and is able to adjust his teaching style for us given our very different needs. He comes prepared with his lesson plans and is able to teach in a dynamic manner while adjusting to our varied pace. It’s a pleasure to learn from Joel and I highly recommend him as a teacher for students of all ages and levels.

My son is at ABRSM grade 5 level and I was looking for a senior level coach to take him up to advance level. Stradivari Strings placed him under the guidance of piano teacher Matthew. Right from the first lessons, my son got on well with him and I am happy that we have engaged him to be our permanent piano coach.

Teacher Hughes is an excellent cello teacher. He is fantastic and relates extremely well with my 10 year old daughter. He is ever so patient with her and offers words of encouragement during all cello lessons. I highly recommend him to any parent whose child wants to start cello classes. Thanks teacher Hughes for everything!

Stradivari Strings was very thorough in helping to select a viola which is suitable for my build. I received great advice and information including the type of wood, age of the maple spruce, to the quality of the rosin for my viola bow. I am very pleased with the viola and the lovely sound it produces.

Rita at Stradivari Strings is wonderful! I had to get my 6 year old daughter a cello. She was informative, honest and very helpful. She explained the different types of instruments and the prices. When I asked her about lessons for my girl, she offered to help with instructors she knew. My other daughter needs a ukulele and we are getting it from Stradivari Strings … all our best.

I bought myself a cello from Stradivari Strings. Rita treats her customers like family and really makes them comfortable by understanding their needs and expectations. Her hand is like a magic wand which makes the right cello come to you. I believe the most important thing is you should get connected to the instrument you buy and I am really grateful to Rita for making it possible.

Stradivari Strings is very friendly and knowledgeable about music instruments. During my violin selection session with Stradivari Strings, I was given a lot of information to make an informed choice on the violin I would eventually select, I was given a lot of time to decide on my violin and violin bow. They were not pushy at all. I am extremely happy with the Peter Racz violin I eventually selected at Stradivari Strings.

Last year, I decided to take up the violin. I found the contact for Stradivari Strings and gave Rita a call to set up an appointment to select a student level violin. Rita was very thorough in asking about my level of commitment to learning the violin as she wants to find an instrument and price range that is suitable for me. She was also very patient in answering all of my questions. Rita gave off a good vibe to me as a would-be customer in that she was not pushy at all, and she emphasized that I should take my time to consider that the violin is something that I like, and is within my budget. When I requested a second appointment to view other violins, she was happy to accommodate my request. To date, I have already purchased two violin and two bows from Stradivari Strings. Their professionalism and level of service is something that I would strongly recommend to anyone who is looking to purchase a string instrument.
