http://jewishcommunityorchestra.org/wordpress/About Wendy Edgar, viola
Violist Wendy Edgar has the joy of being both a performer and a teacher. She has played with various groups in the greater Portland, Oregon area, including the Portland Opera Orchestra and the Oregon Ballet Theatre Orchestra. She also teaches private lessons and is an adjunct viola professor at Clark College. Every summer she heads to southern Oregon for three weeks to play in the Britt Festival Orchestra. In addition to her music, she enjoys spending time with her family on a few acres in rural Clark County. Add in some weaving, books, animals, and time spent outdoors, and she is content with life.
Wendy started violin lessons at age 6 but later fell in love with the warm rich tone of the viola and never looked back. A native of Washington, she had her first orchestral experiences as a member of the Vancouver Symphonette and the Portland Youth Philharmonic. She has a Bachelor of Music in Viola Performance from Oberlin Conservatory and a Master of Music in viola performance from Northwestern University. Her teachers have included Ruth Petrasso, Martha Warrington, Jeffrey Irvine, and Lynne Ramsey. Her viola was made by Mark Moreland in 2002.
