    If your child is still interested in joining us for the Beginner Program, we’d love to hear from you! Please email us at summerstring@gmail.com to ask about remaining spots or to be added to our waitlist in case of cancellations.

            Developing Program 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m.

            This is the program for kids who have already been playing, and want to further develop those skills. Group classes for violin or cello focus on refining technique, and group playing to make stronger musicians. Crafts and a non-instrumental activity fill out the morning.

            Orchestra Program 9 a.m. to 3:40 p.m.

            This is for advanced students who have the skills and confidence to play a part on their own usually in a string quartet. Some of the most thrilling moments in classical music come from the interplay of leading and following some pals through a piece of chamber music. Sign up individually, or put your own groups together. These groups can be customized to the playing level of its members. Mornings involve several coachings, and a non-instrumental class too. Afternoons are spent in an advanced orchestra.
