Since its founding in 2000, Violonissimo has trained, guided and inspired young musicians in their quest for artistic excellence, in an inclusive spirit. The creativity, individuality and development of each student are at the center of tour pedagogy.

While respecting the tradition of great masters of the violin, notably  Joseph Gingold, Franco Gulli and Mimi Zweig, Violonissimo’s pedagogy pursues ambitious objectives of creation, research and innovation.

Combining rigor and freedom, technique and expressiveness, tradition and modernity, this unique pedagogy allows the young violinist to develop his art in a climate of confidence and joy.

Thanks to a rich program of artistic activities which includes concerts, workshops, chamber music workshops and masterclasses, students are encouraged to realize their artistic aspirations.

​

Every year, Violonissimo students participate in national and international competitions and win numerous prizes. Over the years, Violinissimo has become one of the most awarded music schools in Switzerland.

​

Since 2014,  Violonissimo's team of teachers engage in social projects that support the musical education of children from disadvantaged backgrounds. The school currently sponsors Barrios Orquestados, a youth music organization in Gran Canaria, Spain.
