In addition to a full teaching and performing schedule, he is Director of Committees for the Stradivarius International Violin Competition.

This is Judd's 7th season coaching violinists at Lyceum Music Festival.

"Judd made things simple for us with bowings and fingerings.  And he was at every orchestra rehearsal which was great, because he knew what we needed to work on as a section."

 

"Judd helped our section come together more especially with bowings."

"Judd was realistic and told us honest, helpful, insightful things."

"Judd was very patient and took the time to go slow when we needed."

"Judd showed us that you don’t have to play every note written."
