LOOK at the Google Doc Each Week! 

Who: All String Players! Please spread the word. All ages, all levels.  Play what you know and have fun!  This is primarily geared towards violinists but we're working to change that. There are viola/cello parts for the Suzuki tunes, and we're working on getting more fiddle tunes in D Major.   Fiddle tunes also have chords to play along if you don't know the tune. 

What:  Suzuki book songs plus extra fiddle tunes each week. CLICK HERE to see up-to-date information on what we will play and to download sheet music. 

Where**  McKinley Park,  near H street between Alhambra and 33rd.  (confirm before heading out!)

As much as practicing your instrument helps develop your skill, practicing performing in front of an audience helps you become more comfortable and confident on stage. The more experience you have, the easier it becomes.  

Come practice your performance skills in a friendly and supportive environment.  Since this is not a recital, audience is limited to 1 person per performer.  If your music teacher would like to hear your practice performance, they are welcome to attend as well. 

Workshops are held in the Geery Theater, located at 2130 L street. (downstairs in the Pease Conservatory).  There is a beautiful (and tuned) grand piano available for pianists.

​$20 per performer.  Open to all ages, acoustic instruments and skill levels.  Performers may play unaccompanied or bring their own accompanist. If using recorded accompaniment, you must provide all of your own sound equipment unless otherwise arranged ahead of time.  Please email [email protected] with questions regarding accompaniment / sound.
