Composer
Sheila M. Nelson (1936-)
Sheila Mary Nelson (born 1936 in Manchester) is an English musician, music educator, writer and composer. She has played with the English Chamber Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the Menuhin Festival Orchestra but is best known as a violin and viola teacher. She is usually referred to as Sheila Nelson, but appears in her published works as Sheila M. Nelson.
Nelson studied at the Royal College of Music and has a B.Mus degree from London University. She has also studied at the University of Birmingham and in Denmark. In 1976 she went to the USA on a Churchill Fellowship to study with the eminent string pedagogue Paul Rolland, and in the 1980s directed an innovative group-teaching project in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The Tower Hamlets Project taught strings and piano to whole school classes in a deprived area of London, and was featured in a six-part TV documentary series.
