New this year – Music of the Movies!

Keep it going through the summer with the fun-filled Keep It Going Summer Strings Camp. This exciting program is for violin, viola, cello, and string bass students in grades 3 through 9 who have had previous experience either through school or private lessons. Each day, students will have chamber music, fiddle, string orchestra, sectionals, and – new this year – Music of the Movies!   At the end of camp, parents will be amazed to hear what their children have learned in just one week when the students perform a special concert for family and friends!
