ABI TODD PROFILE
Abi was born in Somerset in 1965. Her best Christmas ever was when she was given her first violin. Thanks to much encouragement (encouragement that became nagging when Abi would rather be out riding her pony!) she went on to study violin with Bridgid Kirkland-Wilson and Itzhach Rashkovsky at the Royal College of Music. Since then her enthusiasm for all types of music has been focussed on teaching.
In 2004, another delightful gift (an electric violin) lead Abi in a new direction. She saw the possibilities of using effects such as ‘overdrive’ and ‘echo’ and she embraced the chance to learn more about music technology. She now has a recording studio where she produces her own versions of a range of musical styles. She is exploring the world of traditional music from gypsy and klezmer to music from North and South America, Britain and Ireland as well as rearranging music from the classical and popular world.
Her music goes ‘from baroque to rock.’ |
