    Funded Mar 16, 2018

    I would like to Thank you for your generous support, my students and our orchestra will greatly benefit from your donation. The violas will be a great addition as we continue to grow and learn in the orchestra. We can't wait to share some pictures of us playing our new instruments!

    Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Garcia

We have never had violas in our string orchestra. Last semester, I decided to use full-size violins as violas. That is the only way we found to add this instrument to the string orchestra. We need to get real violas instead violins in order to provide the students with a full string orchestra sound experience. The students need to understand that The viola is one of the 'harmonic building blocks' of the orchestra/string section. They provide the bridge between D-Bass and Celli and the violins and are used to fill in the harmony. Our String orchestra deserves to have real violas.
