The fifth graders at Ridgeview, Jackson Keller and Olmos Elementary have the amazing opportunity to join the after school strings
program. Joining the program gives the students an opportunity to learn to play a string instrument and become more prepared for middle school music classes.To join the class you'll need the following items.
- An string instrument (violin,viola,vello or bass) which can be rented from stores around the area.
Renting is the safest choice and most rental programs allow you to gain credit for purchase of an instrument
later. Because most students are still growing and will need bigger instruments they also come with insurance that
covers accidental damage, string replacement etc.- Portable Music Stand- a folding stand to put music on for class and home practice and concerts.
- Music Method Book- we are using the Essential Elements Book 1, depending on the instrument you want to play
you'll need to get the book for that instrument. Playing violin? You'll be getting the violin book. Viola, Cello, Bass?
The book is labeled at the top corner.
- Shoulder rest (Violin and viola) Rockstop/Anchor (cello and bass)
