Biography
Noted for her warm stage presence and stylish, boundary-pushing interpretations of Italian Baroque violin sonatas and concerti, violinist Lindsey Tootle is a sought-after Baroque violinist and historical performance specialist based in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Lindsey re-entered the classical music scene in early 2023 after a hiatus spanning six years. Lindsey has performed in concert with Harmonie Universelle (USA) and members of the Atlanta Baroque Orchestra and New Trinity Baroque, and joined Seven Hills baroque in 2023 as Baroque violinist and Promotions and Media Manager.
Originally from Huntsville, Alabama, Lindsey first showed a propensity for music in infancy, and began violin at age three. Since her earliest formative years, Lindsey’s never-ending passion and deep affection for Baroque music has been the North Star of her musical education and career. She studied both modern and Baroque violin on scholarship at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa with Gesa Kordes (Baroque violin), Dr. Don Fader (musicology/historical performance practice), and Jenny Gregoire (violin).
When she isn’t performing, Lindsey enjoys her years-long career as a paralegal. She currently works at an immigration law firm, where she walks hand-in-hand with clients globally on their immigration journeys.
In her free time, you might find her running, exploring the outdoors, visiting family and friends, watching Alabama Crimson Tide football, or having a good laugh. Lindsey has been a resident of Cincinnati since 2021, where she resides in Colerain Township with her husband, John, and their very silly cat, Pepper.
