Who is eligible:  String orchestra students entering grades 5-9 (fall 2008) - others by permission of one of the above instructors.

Two 30 minute lessons per week will be offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Lessons will be scheduled between 8:00 and 11:30 a.m.  One lesson will consist of fundamental instruction, the other will consist of chamber music (duets, trios, quartets, etc.), and/or fiddling for interested students.

This will be a fun, relaxed way for students to keep up with their instrument, meet new friends, and play new, exciting music!
