This past summer, at our 49th Season Gala Celebration, we presented our latest music education video, which you can now view here! The video spotlights our longtime Strings in Our Schools program, which offers group violin lessons—taught by violinist and educator Hilary Schacht—to students at Ramirez Thomas, Sweeney, Pecos, and Tesuque elementary schools.
We’re bursting with pride at the accomplishments of the many students who’ve participated in Strings in Our Schools over the past 25 years, and we’re deeply grateful for the community and donor support that makes our music education programs possible. We’d especially like to thank Paula and Steven Fasken, Richard and Pam Hanlon, and Ellen Marder and Wolfgang Schmidt-Nowara for generously underwriting the production of our latest video as well as The Fasken Foundation for generously supporting all our music education programs.
