There’s no shortage of music lessons in Denton. The city is, after all, home to a large music school at University of North Texas. Without leaving the city limits, locals can study voice and just about any instrument that suits their fancy.
Readers rate the UNT String Program as the best place in town to wrap your brain and your hands around a violin, viola, cello or double bass. The program’s scope is limited to children in second through eighth grade.
“Learning to play a stringed instrument and belonging to the UNT String Project opens up a whole new world of friendship and fun,” director Rebecca Roesler says. “The opportunities for playing a stringed instrument in school and even after high school are abundant, with many universities offering scholarships just for orchestra participation.”
The string program teaches more than music. Children in the program learn self-discipline, cooperation, problem-solving, goal-setting and self-expression.
The program’s officials said they’ve gotten praise for both the music and the relationships formed with their young students’ families.
“We’d like to think that we are doing a good job educating the community’s children and providing a wonderful musical experience for them,” Roesler said. “However, it’s important to note that the families we work with have always been so supportive of our teachers and program and we wouldn’t be here with out their support.
