Bass Strings for DMHS Orchestras

Help me give my students new bass strings to support our excellent and growing bass section! Basses are provided by the district, but we have never done string swaps, with many basses rocking 10+ year old strings.

My Project

We would love to fund enough strings to make sure all in-class basses have fresh and quality strings! These bass strings will support the musical growth of our bass section. We are extremely fortunate to be in a district where the orchestra program is supported with excellent equipment, but we receive very little in the way of consumables (i.e., strings, rosin, etc). We want to help our hard-working students sound their best by providing them with some quality step-up strings to match their high-quality work ethic and attitudes!
