3 About Dr. Jaffé About Dr. Jaffé Celebrated international musician and instructor When Alberto Jaffé was eight years old, he performed his first public violin recital in his native Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He went on to have a successful music career and won many national and international awards. He extensively toured many countries with his wife, pianist Daisy de Luca Jaffé, and performed as a soloist with several orchestras in Brazil, Israel, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Central America, Mexico, and the United States. After postgraduate work in Cologne, Germany, under the great master Max Rostal, he directed the Pro Arte International Summer Courses and several other international courses and was elected president of the São Paulo Music Committee for two years. From 1982 to 1985, he was the co-director of the Music Department of the National Academy of Arts in Champaign, Illinois, as well as a violin, viola, and chamber music professor at the University of Illinois. Dr. Jaffé greatly influenced the Brazilian musical scene after creating the Jaffé Strings method in the early 1970s in cooperation with his wife. The Jaffé Strings method had its start in the Jaffés home with their own children. They saw their sons losing interest in their music lessons when they practiced alone. However, when their young friends came over and played music with them, they all enjoyed the practice time. As a result, Dr. Jaffé began teaching beginners in group lessons, and the drop-out rate was reduced dramatically! In time, the Jaffés work came to the attention of the Brazilian government, which asked them to start a national program. Over 400 teens from poor families with no musical background applied for the first program. Over 150 students who started using this method as beginners are now professional strings players and conductors in various orchestras all over the world. The Jaffés constantly revised and added to the program, conferring with numerous other music professionals for ideas and teaching concepts to enhance their own basic plan. The result is this program available on DVD. Dr. Jaffé was artist in residence at Pensacola Christian College from 1994 until he went home to be with the Lord in Dr. Jaffé knows what it takes to get an idea or concept into a student s mind.
