Instrument Demo Videos

The next step is to choose an instrument!

This is a very important step. While I hope that each child will be able to play his or her “first choice” instrument, physical characteristics and the need for balanced instrumentation are limiting factors. Students should carefully watch each video and consider which instrument they like best. In the next step, they will rank their interest in each instrument.

Watch our very own Houston Symphony musicians demonstrate the four instruments in the string orchestra...

Violin, Viola, Cello, and Double Bass

Don't forget the Double Bass!
