2023 - 2024 Czech Fulbright Award Scholar and American Violinist.
As a violinist, Avery has performed at Lincoln Center, Walt Disney Concert Hall, National Concert Hall in Warsaw, Slovak Radio Hall, Vienna Konzerthaus, Prague Rudolfinum, Berlin Konzerthaus, the Banff Centre, Canada's National Arts Centre among others.
As a researcher, her Fulbright work focused on Czech Composer and Holocaust victim Gideon Klein and his pre-Terezín works, specifically his solo violin pieces which she is preparing for publication and performances.
As an educator, Avery Morris brings a decade of violin-teaching experience, integrating technical rigor, individualized problem-solving, and body-awareness practices to help each student best “sing” on their instrument. Drawing on her work in mathematics and neuroscience, she teaches adaptively by adjusting technique and repertoire to honor the whole musician.
Fulbright Scholarship Brings Student
Closer to Renowned Composer
Avery Morris discovered the work of Czech modernist composer Gideon Klein during a routine online search for violin/viola duets to play with her twin sister in the early days of the pandemic. She didn’t realize at the time that she had opened a door that years later would lead to a Fulbright scholarship.
