"Jeremy Cohen is a fine violinist who exudes genuine, bold grandeur, accentuated by an astonishing expose of his heart through his fingers." Strings Magazine Jeremy Cohen’s performances of jazz and classical violin have earned him nationwide accolades and his eclectic style reflects his admiration for violinists ranging from Fritz Kreisler to Joe Venuti. A classically-trained violinist, Cohen’s teachers included Itzhak Perlman, Anne Crowden, and Daniel Kobialka. In addition to his own recordings with his ViolinJazz Quartet and Quartet San Francisco, and his work on motion picture and TV soundtracks, Cohen has performed and recorded with a wide variety of artists (see online discography for details). On stage he was the solo violinist in Broadway productions including Forever Tango and The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. He has performed as soloist with numerous symphony orchestras around the country, and has toured with the Turtle Island String Quartet, the Hot Club of San Francisco, the New York Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra and the San Francisco Symphony. Cohen's ViolinJazz concerts with symphony orchestras include complete orchestrations and feature Jeremy Cohen's virtuosic playing, which mixes the traditions of jazz and classical music with blues, pop, country and swing-era music. His ChamberJazz concerts blend his traditional ViolinJazz Quartet (violin, piano, guitar, bass) with his string ensemble Quartet San Francisco, creating a very exciting ChamberJazz event. Jeremy Cohen is currently Resident Artist and String Coordinator at the Henry Mancini Institute at UCLA and Guest Artist in Residence at Mills College (read more).
