biography
Originally, Paul Dateh was only supposed to be a violinist. Beginning his violin studies at the age of four, it seemed that Dateh’s future in the classical industry was set in stone. But, on his first day at The University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music, Dateh suddenly dropped his major in Violin Performance and enrolled in the Jazz Studies program, instead. The move shocked his colleagues as it was hard to understand why anyone would walk away from fourteen years of classical training to begin learning an entirely new musical discipline. But, Dateh knew that he wanted to be more than just a classical musician; his goal was to become a musician, in every possible way.

Today, as a singer, an award-winning songwriter, and an instrumentalist, it would appear that Dateh is on track to achieving his goal. His work can be heard on releases by various artists within both mainstream and underground hip hop circles, and he can currently be seen performing throughout the United States with his band “The Live Movement”.

It is so hard to violinists who can take on the new era of music without delving into the classic genre--indeed you are a hard-find artist for violins--represent! :D
Your violin has a very beautiful tone to it; it was like you had that thing for more than 5 years or so.

Is there something wrong with being "just" a classical musician? This seems to be a trend in the mainstream media (there's a ton of movies where the main characters shirk their classical roots and go to hip hop or something, flying in the face of their peers and teachers). I'm not saying you're decision was wrong, I just want to know. Thanks.
