Karen Tuttle

Karen Tuttle

Karen Tuttle is an American viola teacher who is famous for her "coordination" technique, which emphasizes being comfortable while playing your instrument. She was originally a violinist who chose to become a violist when she wanted to study with William Primrose, whose technique and ease in playing the viola she greatly admired. Her coordination technique is often considered to be an analysis of Primrose's technique. In 1994 she was recognized by ASTA with the Artist Teacher Award.

She taught at the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Curtis Institute of Music and at Juilliard, and several of her students now teach at prominent universities and music conservatories, as well as at the annual "Karen Tuttle Coordination Workshop", held each summer in the US. These students include Carol Rodland, Kim Kashkashian, Karen Ritscher, Jeffrey Irvine, Lynne Ramsey, Michelle LaCourse, and Susan Dubois.
