About the Soloists

Lucie Onderwyzer, Concertmaster of The Park Avenue Chamber Symphony, began her musical studies at age 5 with piano lessons from her mother in Shelburne, Vermont. After attending an orchestra concert, she was inspired to play the violin and soon enrolled in the Suzuki violin program at age 7. Lucie's musical family was very supportive of her development as a violinist. She was soloist and concert master of the Vermont Youth Orchestra and all New England Festival Orchestra and was a frequent recitalist. She won a scholarship to study with Raphael Bronstein at Manhattan School of Music at age 16. She completed a degree in violin performance in 1988. Soon after graduation, Lucie decided to pursue a career in computers and keep music as a hobby. She is currently a systems engineer at Alliance Capital. She has been a member of the Lawyers' Orchestra and Park Avenue Chamber Symphony since January 2002. Lucie is currently studying with Shem Guibbory of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, and plays a 2003 Charles Rufino violin.
