One day, during beginner’s cello group lesson, the student teacher was looking for me because our youngest cellist group wanted to play a piece for me. They sounded great and they seemed so happy to perform for me. It made my day!!!! It is so important that students learn the joy of playing string instruments with their classmates as a team.

The University of South Carolina String Project, now in its 44thyear, has won national recognition, including the Verner Award and a documentary on South Carolina ETV celebrating the 20th anniversary of the program. When the University of South Carolina String Project was founded in 1974 there was just one small string program in the Columbia metropolitan area. Now all five school districts in the Columbia area have large and active string programs, with orchestras in every high school and six regional youth orchestras.
