Xander Nichting                  is music embodied, he is a solo artist, music director, composer, arranger and violinist.   Xander performs today on a specially designed electric violin to produce a most distinctive and memorable sound. He composes his own music and writes and produces extensively for other artists. Xander was the first to graduate from the Conservatory in the Netherlands with his six-string electric violin, and has continued to perfect his musical abilities every day.   At a young age, Xander found music by playing with a local gypsy group . That group helped hone his interest in jazz and pop music, which formed the basis for his violin work and his style of music today.   Xander, who works in collaboration with Pro Music Stuidio's (NL) as an arranger for solo artists, pop bands and orchestras, has pre-released his first solo album. As a teacher: Xander is the author of the new violin method Creative Violin, which has been released in April 2017. Based on his many years in violin education the need for a new method resulted in “Creative Violin”, which guides the student through classical music as well as pop, jazz, country and world music, all styles where the violin has claimed a prominent position. Even improvisation on violin finds its way to the student, right from the beginning!
