The American Music Institute (AMI) proudly welcomes violin, viola and piano teacher Linda Veleckis to its faculty. Linda brings a wealth of experience and a fresh perspective to AMI’s Strings / Piano  programs, inspiring students of all ages and skill levels.

 

Being a teacher, conductor, violinist, violist and pianist, Ms. Veleckis holds her Master of Music in Violin Performance from Boston University and K-12 Music Teaching Certificate from Depaul University. She has performed throughout the US and Europe. 

 

Until recently, Linda served as Director of Orchestras at Carl Sandburg High School (Orland Park), where she conducted three orchestras. Her private studio focuses on developing technique and preparing students for competitions and auditions. She performs with a number of local orchestras, most enjoyably as principal second violin.
