    Violinist and American fiddler Maggie O'Connor performs a variety of musical styles throughout the U.S. and beyond, most recently as a member of the Grammy Award winning O'Connor Band. Frequently performing with her husband, violinist and composer Mark O'Connor, together they have appeared as guest soloists with the Singapore Chinese Orchestra, the Santa Rosa Symphony, the Walla Walla Symphony, the Nashville Symphony with the O'Connor Band, and many other symphony orchestras performing his compositions ranging from his "Strings and Threads Suite" to his "Double Violin Concerto" and "Johnny Appleseed Suite". The couple has also performed violin duos around the world, including the Leopold Auer Music Academy Hungary as well as the Berlin Konzerthaus celebrating the centennial birthday of the great violinist Yehudi Menuhin. Maggie tours with the O'Connor Band, whose debut album "Coming Home" won a Grammy Award for "Best Bluegrass Album of the Year" in 2017 at the 59th Grammy Awards. Along with the O'Connor Band, Maggie has also frequently performed in her husband’s ensembles ranging from "Hot Swing" and "American Classics" to "An Appalachian Christmas", a hit concert tour taking place each holiday season. Along with performing, Maggie continues to work as co-director with Mark at O'Connor Method String Camps featuring the lesson book series that is rising in popularity each year. Maggie also makes unique violin peg necklaces to raise funds for scholarships at these camps. She is also featured on her and her husband's album "Duo," in which David McGee of Deep Roots Magazine claims "As a technician and as an expressive player, she is formidable, has it all. What I find so special about her, apart from the sheer soulfulness abundant in the music she makes, is her uncanny sense of playing off of and with Mark, knowing when to assert herself and when to be empathetic and supportive."
    Growing up in a musical family in the suburbs of Atlanta GA, Maggie started playing the violin at age 7 in a family band. Concurrently, she took classical violin lessons with Larisa Morgulis, a distinguished graduate of the Odessa Conservatory in Ukraine. Playing music with her family band is where Maggie began to develop an ear for arranging, recording, group playing, and improvisation; skills she has embraced throughout her musical life. In her early years, she was a member of numerous bluegrass and rock bands while also being a member and soloist with Atlanta's top three youth orchestras.
    After growing up playing American and classical music styles, Maggie continued her professional training at the Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University where she studied with violinist Herbert Greenberg earning the Bachelor and the Master of Music degrees in violin performance. She was also a finalist in the Marbury Prize Competition for Undergraduate Violinists while finishing up her Bachelor's degree with distinction and had the honor of being accepted into the Five Year Advanced Degree Program along with being awarded the Career Development Grant while at Peabody. She was the recipient of full tuition scholarships while studying at the Aspen Music Festival and School for three years. Maggie currently resides in North Carolina with her husband and plays a beautifully handcrafted 1996 violin made by Lukas Wronski.

    Very nice and very informative. I think the O’Connor band is the best touring band out there right now. I’ve been to several shows and can’t get enough. I’ve seen Mark perform more than 30 times in various bands over the years. He and all of you are so full of energy it’s a pleasure to see you all.

      I agree they are phenomenal! Just saw them in Germantown Tennessee. Took some kids from the neighborhood who are aspiring musicians and I think they were sufficiently challenged and encouraged to push forward.

    I'm not a fiddle/violin player - never will be - but I still found this so interesting, informative and just plain old enjoyable. I've always loved Mark O'Connor's playing - he is extraordinary...as is this insight to how these folks make and own the music they play. Love the clip - and if I was a player I'd buy the books and head for the camp.

    Thank you! I never learned to chop, despite having a degree in music, but it's in a book one of my students is using, so I had to learn how to do it. Watched two other videos that weren't helping me get the right sound. But now I have it.

    Love this :) I've worked on this a little in my fiddle lessons (I'm an adult learner) but I can't afford hour long lessons, so it's hard to get in depth into anything durning them. So this is a nice way to supplement it :)

    Would you say that chopping, even though it sounds cool, is a bit hard on the strings and horse hair? making the strings and horse hair wear and tear more and not last as long?

    It does not look kind to the violin or the bow. Expect more cracked front plates or broken bow hairs.

      It might break some bow hairs, but so does regular playing. As long as you're careful not to hit the waist of the violin (they make rubber protectors if you have the tendency to do so), then you'll be fine. I also recommend this with a carbon fiber bow instead of a wooden one, since there's a risk of hitting the stick against the string, and that could create digs in a wooden bow.
