Violin Music performed by Fairview Elementary School Children

"Fairview Elementary Early Violin Demonstration".

"Through an outreach program supervised by Brenda Brenner, an associate professor of music education at Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music, first-graders at Fairview Elementary in Bloomington will take violin lessons three times a week throughout the school year. Fairview Violins/Neveah Stevens

The Jacobs School received donations of 65 violins -- worth approximately $15,210 -- for the program, which is entirely funded by anonymous donors. All three first-grade classes will meet twice weekly, on Mondays and Thursdays, for group instruction. Once more each week, during recess, groups of three to four first-graders will meet for small-group instruction with students from Brenner's string pedagogy program at IU. Group classes will be instructed by Brenner and Kasia Bugaj, assistant instructor for the program. "
