About Samantha Dahl

Samantha Dahl is currently studying with Julliard alumni and

internationally renowned performer Dr. Ayako Yonetani as a music

performance major at the University of Central Florida. She began

program. She studied with Carey Moorman for 7 years before she

moved to Orlando.

She was a member of the Brevard Symphony Youth Orchestra for five

years and has performed with the Space Coast Symphony Orchestra

and Cocoa Village Playhouse. Samantha also underwent a rigorous

audition process each year beginning at age 13 and was accepted to

both All County and the Florida All State Orchestras every year from

2009-2014. Her teaching experience began in the summer of 2013 with

an internship at a summer camp for young players and continued in

2014 with the Brevard String Academy, at which point she also began

private lessons with young students. When she is not playing or

listening to music, Samantha enjoys reading, watching movies, and

horseback riding.
