Strings (Grade 3-6)

Welcome to Tuesday Strings!

The strings class is for beginning to intermediate students of violin, viola and cello. 

Beginners will be trained from the basics up. Intermediates will be placed together to form string groups at their own level. Beginning and Advanced students will also play all together with pieces that each level can play. Students will work on note reading, technical skills, rhythm and group playing. they will have at least two performances in the year. 

Students will need an instrument if they don't already have one. I recommend the rent to own program through Michelle Xiao You. Her phone is (916) 846-6304. At this age it is important to be outfitted with a playable instrument. Students will automatically be be given the right size and traded up as they grow free of charge. When they have their full size they then have an excellent instrument to continue. Her rental prices are excellent and the insruments she rents are the best out there. 

I do have a few instruments available also on a first come first served basis. Call Margie Hartung at (916) 624-7610 to inquire.

All  music wil be on canvas. You may join canvas here:
