For Students and Parents New to Playing a Stringed InstrumentWelcome! Don't panic, we won't need instruments for the first few days. We will be talking to your students about their choice of instrument. We will also measure them for the proper size of instrument and send them home with the information. Yes, they actually come in different sizes! Sometimes, that can make all the difference in a student's success. Also, information will be sent home from the three shops that we recommend for renting or purchasing. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions. It is our mission to help your children be successful, a good instrument is vital to that success.
