Conductors


Katherine Swierczewska-Roselli began playing the violin at age 6 while living in her native Poland. She moved to the United States when she was 16 and played in orchestras in high school and college, studied international business, earned her MBA, and then worked on Wall Street. But after the events of September 11, 2001, she decided that life was too short and that she should be doing something she loves to do and share her passion for music with children.

Today Katherine teaches stringed instruments at Toms River Intermediate North. She has played with the Monmouth Symphony Orchestra and the Garden State Philharmonic. Katherine also teaches a large private studio. Her work as conductor of the String Ensemble of the Garden State Philharmonic Youth Orchestras was featured in the Asbury Park Press.
