FALL WORKSHOP 2015 CELLO MASTERCLASS
Mr. Fiore received his Masters Degree in Performance at DePaul University studying with Stephen Balderston, member of the Chicago Symphony.
Christopher Fiore began studying the cello at age four under the tutelage of his parents, both of whom are established Suzuki teachers and performers in the Philadelphia area. At the age of 12, Chris began double bass lessons with his father, and has continued to play bass as a secondary instrument. When he was 16, Chris attended the Hartt School of Music where he studied with Pamela Devenport, currently part of the faculty at the School for Strings in New York City.
Christopher continued his studies at the Cleveland Institute of Music, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Cello Performance. While there, he studied with former principal cellist of the Cleveland Orchestra, Stephen Geber and helped to build a cello program with Rainbow Strings, an after-school inner-city program started bySuzuki violin teacher Michele George.
After graduating from CIM, Christopher went on to obtain a Masters Degree, as well as a Performance Certificate at the DePaul School of Music in Chicago, IL, where he studied with various members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. At the same time, he entered into an Apprenticeship with world-renowned Suzuki pedagogue Tanya Carey, and completed teacher training in all ten Suzuki Cello Books, as well as an additional Practicum course. While finishing his studies, he joined the faculty at the DePaul School of Music Community Music Division to help build and solidify the cello program there. Christopher will be starting his first year with the Oak Park String Academy this fall, and is looking forward to creating a thriving cello community within the program. Click Here to Download Bio

Every Child Can
Suzuki based his approach on the belief that “musical ability is not an inborn talent but an ability which can be developed” (Kendall 1966). “Any child who is properly trained can develop musical ability, just as all children develop the ability to speak their mother tongue. The potential of every child is unlimited”
(Suzuki Twinkler 1998)
