Why Strings?

·        A string and orchestral music education adds a unique dimension to a child’s life that cannot be fulfilled by any other type of music instruction.

·        All children are capable of learning to play a stringed instrument, regardless of “talent”, “giftedness”, or musical background.

·        Unlike most other musical instruments, stringed instruments come in many sizes so that children of all ages can be fitted with a suitable instrument and begin instruction as young as three years of age.

·        Playing a stringed instrument enhances the enjoyment of music and leads to a skill that can be enjoyed for a lifetime.

·        It is a proven fact that students of instrumental music excel in many other areas academically, and consistently achieve higher grade point averages in all subjects.
