About Cathy
Private violin and viola instrustruction with over 25 years experience. I received my training at Champman University with a BS with an emphasis in instrumental performance. I have performed in major venues across the US as a freelance musician, and an 8 year veteran of the AFM in Southern California and have performed on Major Motion Picture soundtracks, symphonies, recording studios and string ensembles. I am member of the American String Teachers Association, Phoenix Musician Teachers Association, the National Music Teachers Association and contracted for a string quartet for over 20 years. I offer one-on-one lessons at my in-home studio as well as Zoom lessons, or a combination of both.
Students learn the art of playing the violin using proper technique while enjoying themselves. Former students have gone in to perform with major symphonies in the US as well as Europe. They have toured with recording artists Adele, John Legend, Elton John, etc, and can currently be seen performing with the Vitamin String Quartet, on the Grammy's, Oscars and the the Country Music Awards.
I offer many styles of musical playing and tailor each lesson to the students goals, combining conservatory and Suzuki methods, as well music theory and a solid basis in proper technique.
I look forward to hearing from you! Cathy
There's a saying, "If you love what you, you never work a day in your life!" And I live that saying!
I have always loved working with my students and seeing the progress they make each and every week! I have developed close bonds working closely with each student and I love to see the joy and smiles each week, as they become outstanding musicians!
Looking forward to working with you!
And please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have!

I teach using a combination of Traditional Conservatory and Suzuki Methods and supplement additional materials as well as hold recitals, and help prepare students for any auditions for youth orchestras, college etc.
A very wide variety from ages 4-83! I accept beginning through advanced students as well as special needs students. I believe every student should have the opportunity to grow their love for the violin!
Schedule a free trial lesson with teachers to make sure your personalities and expectations are the same, and that you are comfortable with your teacher. You should always leave with a smile on your face!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Ask how much you should practice, what your goals are, what is required of you. Lesson policies and whether the instructor will help prepare for auditions, scholarships, and chair placement testing.

I had the privilege of studying with Mrs. Alonzo during my first few years playing violin, and it was truly the most enjoyable experience. Mrs. Alonzo has an incredibly personal style of teaching and a distinct warm and jovial personality that subtracts the anxiety from private lessons. She not only taught me technique, but instilled an intrinsic passion for my instrument which I still carry today. I forever cherish these lessons!
Our daughter gained confidence playing in her school orchestra because of her lessons with Ms Alonso.
We were under her guidance from 3rd grade into high school years with helpful advices and friendly support.
We are so thankful our paths crossed to give our daughter the best music education.Cathy is an amazing teacher and mentor! She is a true professional who cares about her students. The extremely high quality of her lessons combined with making music fun is the perfect mix. She most definitely has my highest recommendation!
