Sarah Biesack, Violin

Bio

I’m a violinist from Melbourne, Florida, and currently a junior at Florida State University studying finance. I began playing the violin at age four after listening to The Sound of Music on repeat. Prior to joining the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra in 2024, I performed with the National Youth Orchestra (NYO-USA). I am also a member of the Panama City Symphony and perform with other ensembles throughout Florida and Georgia. A nine-time state fiddle champion, I enjoy exploring a variety of traditional styles. Outside of music I love traveling, stand-up comedy, and spending time with my cat, Finnegan.
