Having functional tuners will allow the orchestra students a chance to tune themselves for class and performances more efficiently and accurately. The clip on Snark tuners will be great for the upper strings, while the Korg tuners will be best for the low strings. The clip-on attachments for the Korg tuners will help the students pinpoint their specific instrument while the whole class is tuning.
My orchestra students will benefit from having access to these tuners everyday and help them be better, more independent musicians.
My orchestra program is small, but mighty. We are pushing for growth and having the appropriate resources will help that happen.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
