Nurturing Environment
The world of music is made familiar to the child through colourful, lively symbols and pictures. Individual tuition is complemented by group sessions, chamber music and orchestra playing, which help develop the child’s social skills. The teacher creates a nurturing learning environment, in close co-operation with the parents.

The excellence of Colourstrings

This excellent method for the young musical generation has proved to be really very successful and has already produced many fine string players.

Colourstrings has created fantastic young musicians

I am more than happy for the string teaching pedagogy that this method is spreading around the world. Children who are starting to play a string instrument should have the possibility to start with Colourstrings!
