Canadian freelance violinist Nic Carlucci is a sought-after performer and educator with over a decade of teaching experience. He has held faculty appointments at two distinguished Canadian universities and built a strong reputation as a dedicated pedagogue in classical music.
As both a chamber and orchestral musician, Carlucci’s passion for chamber music has taken him across North America and the Southern Hemisphere, both in his studies and performances. Locally, he performs with several ensembles, most notably Magisterra Soloists where he has also contributed to the administrative team. His orchestral work includes engagements with London Symphonia, Windsor Symphony, and the International Symphony Orchestra among others. He has also served as concertmaster for Oxford Collegium & Kammerchor Baroque.
Carlucci is committed to fostering passion and technical excellence in violinists of all levels. After more than a decade building a private studio, he earned a Master’s in Violin Literature and Performance under acclaimed German violinist Annette-Barbara Vogel. He was then appointed Violin Lecturer at Western University, mentoring at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Additionally, he served as Violin Instructor at Wilfrid Laurier University’s precollege String Academy for five years where he was the primary violin and group class instructor. He also conducts the senior orchestra for Forest City String School.
Beyond teaching, Carlucci is actively involved in adjudicating music festivals, award committees and curriculum development. His students have consistently earned top accolades.
His primary post-secondary mentors include Professor Jerzy Kaplanek, members of the Penderecki String Quartet and Mel Martin.
