AMAA Advisory Board

The AMAA Advisory Board is made up of professional, established musicians who act as mentors to AMAA students. Their wealth of experience and knowledge is an enormous asset to the AMA Academy and students.

Mr. Aleksey Igudesman

Advisory Board Member

Aleksey Igudesman is best known as a violinist, but he has also established himself as a composer, conductor, actor, producer, entrepreneur and filmmaker. At age 12 he was accepted at the Yehudi Menuhin School in England and went on to study violin with Boris Kuschnir at the Vienna Conservatory. He makes up one half of the music and comedy duo Igudesman & Joo. Among his many other accomplishments, Igudesman is also Founder and CEO of Music Traveler, an app which helps musicians find and book practice spaces from private hosts.
