Performance - Strings
The music of stringed instruments dedicated to the glory of God is a rich tradition, from the playing of King David to the composing of Johann Sebastian Bach to the teaching and beneficence of Calvin’s “Uncle Leo” Cayvan. That tradition of faith-inspired music lives on at Calvin College, where outstanding faculty work with committed students within quality programs.
