Wynne with Violin

Wynne Flickinger Meisenbach got a very early start to her musical career when she began studying the violin at the age of three (after having begged her mother for eighteen months). She was performing professionally with her family by the age of four, and took up piano lessons at the age of five. Also at the age of five she was highlighted in a P.B.S. special on child prodigies. At the age of seven, she was a featured guest on the children's television show Mr.Peppermint. She made her debut as a violin soloist with the Richardson Symphony Orchestra at the age of ten, and performed again as a soloist the following year with the Summer Conservatory Orchestra at the University of Texas at Dallas.

Shortly thereafter, she became a pupil of Robert Davidovici, of the University of North Texas. She began composing at the age of twelve and added voice lessons at age thirteen. After graduating from Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Dallas with a concentration in music, she attended the University of Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music as a student of Naoko Tanaka and Dorothy DeLay. Subsequently she studied violin with Motoi Takeda in Dallas.

After performing as a symphony musician in Dallas and the Dominican Republic, she switched gears, began to study acting, and became a member of the ensemble with the Dallas Children's Theater. She returned to music in 1996 and performed as a soloist with the Las Colinas Symphony Orchestra in 1997. Having always had an interest in Gypsy and Eastern European Folk music, she threw caution to the wind and moved to Hungary where she studied Gypsy music and performed as the violinist in a Gypsy band.

When not performing music, she can be found hiking, reading, writing, composing or playing her accordion for Pearce.
