Elm Street Music (ESM) was founded by Melinda Rhinelander, a classically trained violinist who now focuses on fiddle music.

ESM students of many ages and abilities, from 6-year olds playing their first note to adults interested in learning an instrument or rekindling their dormant musical abilities.

ESM provides one-on-one, semi-private, and group lessons. ESM instructors work with students to select songs that mean something to them. For example, some students will gravitate towards learning traditional Irish reels, while others may incorporate their inspirational music into their lessons.

At ESM, an important goal is for students to not just help them learn a fiddle tune, but to make the tune their own.

ESM encourages and helps its students to participate in ESM-sponsored recitals as well as fiddle contests, school music programs, and community events.
