Home of United String Ensembles is a chamber music program specifically for Oakland Unified School District middle school students who would otherwise have no opportunity to further their skills in violin, viola, cello and bass. By providing the individual attention needed to be fine musicians, H.o.U.S.E will support our Oakland string students to succeed in participating in local Youth Orchestras of the Bay Area.
