Andrew Filmer, Viola (Malaysia)

Diversity is a hallmark of Dr. Andrew Filmer’s career, with interests and expertise in viola performance and musicology.

In addition to performing as a soloist, chamber musician and in orchestras, he was a member of the New Zealand jazz band The Troubles. He has been published extensively across North America, Europe and Australasia, and has presented research and lectures at conferences and universities in Europe, Australia, and Singapore. He is the first non-American editor for the Journal of the American Viola Society.

Andrew holds a PhD from the University of Otago and a master’s degree in viola performance from Indiana University, both obtained on full scholarships. Andrew is currently a Senior Lecturer at Universiti Putra Malaysia; Consultant to the Australian and New Zealand Viola Society; and serves as Advisor to both Musica Sinfonietta Penang and the Arioso Sinfonia. In what little free time he has, he enjoys science fiction, and discussions on American constitutional law.
