Sandi Schwarz was violin faculty for many years from the time MMR started, so she is not unknown to the older participants. While living in the Seattle area (1974 to 2005) Sandi was active as a modern violinist, but since the '80s has specialized in Baroque- and Classical-style performance practice. One of her loves has been playing chamber music. In the early days there was L'Arianna Quartet with Sandi, Deede Cook, Eileen Swanson and Paige Smith.
