Erin Breene
Cello, Principal
Erin began playing the cello at 15 months old under the Suzuki method!  Her first instrument was actually a detergent box with a yardstick stuck through the end; her bow a wooden stick.  Erin explains that she was, "sort of an experiment in the program.”  At the age of two, Erin graduated to a cello converted from a viola.  Today Erin continues to perform in order to create new experiences.  Erin explains, "It is an act of spontaneity, creative force and energy.  When performers can join together in a harmonious union, I find that the artistic product is unforgettable.”  When asked what other interests she has outside of music, Erin easily responded, "I love to hike and I love the outdoors. I also love to play just about any sport, especially tennis.  I'm also a huge Bob Dylan fan.”
