Ms. Erin Boyette

Erin Boyette is a violin and viola teacher based in Decatur, GA and teaches for Intown Piano and Music in Atlanta.

Erin fell in love with the violin at age seven under the instruction of Natalie Colbert at E. Rivers Elementary School in Atlanta, GA. She studied violin through high school and college, and received a BA in Communications with a Minor in Music from Georgia State University.

After a lifelong study of the violin, Erin began to play the viola as a happy accident.  As an undergraduate student in college, Erin’s chamber music group needed a violist to play the Schubert Trout Quintet. Never one to turn down a challenge, Erin jumped right in and never looked back. She has played viola in addition to the violin ever since.

Erin taught in Brooklyn, NY for 13 years, and has just moved her studio to her home state of Georgia.  After a lifetime love of playing the violin, Erin is eager to share her knowledge of music with children. She is passionate about enabling her students to express themselves through music.

In addition to teaching, Erin has played with the Atlanta Community Symphony Orchestra, the Mannes Community Orchestra in New York, NY, the Doctors Orchestral Society of New York, and the Brooklyn Symphony Orchestra. She plays violin and viola with different chamber groups. Erin has played on albums for recording artists in Atlanta and NYC, and also composes and records her own original music.

Erin is an active member of the Suzuki Association of the Americas, the American String Teachers Association, and The Chamber Music Network. She completed her first unit of Suzuki teacher training with Carrie Reuning-Hummel, Units 1 Revisited and 2-8 with Judy Bossuat-Gallic, and will continue her Suzuki Violin Teacher Training this year.
