### About Karin Griffin
Karin Griffin is a highly respected and skilled violin teacher operating a private teaching studio in East Ballarat. In 2023 she was invited to serve as the acting Head of Strings, teaching violin and viola at Clarendon College Ballarat.
Karin is not only an accomplished educator but also a sought-after international performer. Known for her lyrical style, she plays on a 1791 classical violin, in addition to a 4-string electric violin and a 4 & 6-string Spur semi-acoustic electric violin, using EFX pedals to enhance her sound.
Although classically trained, Karin is renowned for her versatility across multiple musical genres. She has collaborated with some of the world’s greatest orchestras and artists, including the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Concert Orchestra, Henry Mancini, Eric Clapton, Barry White, and José Carreras. As a session musician, she has showcased her impressive range in styles from classical to West End shows, jazz, Manouche, jazz fusion, progressive rock, blues, and more.
Born in Melbourne, where she began her career with the ABC Melbourne Show Band, Karin is thrilled to be a relatively new resident of Ballarat. She has guest-led the local Ballarat Symphony Orchestra, performed in *The Phantom of the Opera* with Vic Opera, and collaborated with local musicians such as Vincent Emanuel and Steve Platter. Additionally, she is actively working with other local artists on their recordings and live shows.
