137 TSP Eva Belvelin Interview (Teacher Resources)

Little Things for Little Strings (violin)
by Eva Belvelin

I recently returned from another wonderful International Music Teachers Exchange (IMTEX) conference in Remscheid, Germany, where I joined many of my dear colleagues from all around the world to share ideas, discoveries, friendship, and our love of teaching music. Under the direction of the conference organizer, Kerstin Wartberg, who is well known for her wonderful teaching materials, Step by Step, the conference was a magnetic gathering of outstanding teachers.

During my attendance at the conference, I met and interviewed Eva Belvelin, who has become my friend this last year since the 2017 conference. In this episode we discuss Eva’s wonderful creations and offerings for teaching community in terms of supplementary repertoire and teaching accessories.

For more information about Eva and the items mentioned in the episode, visit her website:
