Melbourne Youth Junior Strings

Melbourne Youth Junior Strings provides a creative, nurturing environment for young string players in their formative years.  Members benefit by working alongside a team of tutors that specialise in developing young string players’ technique, who attend all rehearsals while also taking weekly sectional rehearsals with the students.  An exciting range of repertoire will stimulate enthusiasm, boost confidence and provide performance opportunities in a positive, rewarding and exciting string ensemble.
