Mu-Chi Hsieh, violin lesson teacher at The Music Shoppe of Springfield, Illinois

Mu-Chi Hsieh is a violinist and educator. She is a native of Taiwan. There she holds a Bachelor double major in Art Management and Special Education, as well as a Minor in Music. Mu-Chi received her Master degrees in Violin Performance and Conducting with an emphasis on Suzuki pedagogy from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE). At SIUE, she studied violin with Lenora-Marya Anop, and conducting with Michael Mishra.


Mrs. Hsieh has taught violin in Taiwan for over 10 years. She has tremendous experience helping students as young as three learn how to play violin. Mu-Chi began learning violin in Suzuki pedagogy at the age of five from her mother.


Mrs. Hsieh was selected as one of the 2019-2020 Competitive Graduate Award (CGA) Winners from a highly competitive applicant pool. She conducted a research project in cooperation with Ms. Vera McCoy-Sulentic and Dr. Andrew Greenwood during her first year in the Master’s program. Mu-Chi won the 2019 SIUE music department concerto competition, playing Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante for Violin and Viola (1st movement) with the university orchestra.


Since Mu-Chi came to United States, she got the graduate degree, married, moved to Springfield, Illinois and is now the proud mother of a baby girl. She has her studio, works with the Illinois Symphony Youth Orchestra, and she will begin teaching at the University of Illinois Springfield (UIS) Community Music School and the UIS Music Program.
