Bayley Ginnaty 

Bayley Ginnaty was born and raised in Great Falls, Montana. It was through the public school system where Ginnaty found the viola and fell in love. Bayley received her Bachelor of Music in Viola Performance from the University of Montana in 2023, studying with Dr. Margaret Nichols Baldridge. Currently, Bayley is pursuing a Master of Music in Performance and Literature at the Eastman School of Music with George Taylor. Bayley began her private teaching career in 2021 with Grow Music Missoula, and quickly found her passion in private instruction. She strives to foster well rounded musicians through a foundation of classical string technique, discipline, and positive experience. Kindness, compassion, and empowerment are essential within our relationship to music. Outside of music, Bayley enjoys cooking, gardening, cross stitching, and moseying through farmers markets.
