Mozart String Project

The Mozart String Project (Little Mozart) was started in 1994 by the Colorado Springs Youth Symphony in response to requests from families who lived in school districts without elementary string programs.  Students come to class 2 days a week and have 3 joint concerts with students from all sites coming together to perform.  We also perform with and can feed into Eagleview and DCC Middle School Orchestras, High School orchestras, and the 5 Youth Symphony audition groups.  NOTE:  Our top Youth Symphony audition group has performed throughout Europe, Asia, and at the Sydney Opera House in Australia!
