Comments by musician, parents & EYS alumni
We have collected, after serious threats and bribery & corruption on an unprecedented scale, lots of nice comments about Exeter Young Strings. Hopefully these will give you another view of what it is like being a member of EYS.

I like playing the cello because it’s fun. Mummy and Daddy play too. The picture is of me with my new cello.

I have been involved with Exeter Young Strings for two years.
I started with Music Awareness. I enjoyed it because I had lots of friends there and I like singing. I liked all the rhythms too.
After Music Awareness I chose to start learning the cello. I have individual lessons and I play with a group. I like the group lesson best because there are friends to play the same part as me.
Every term there is a concert and I like the concert because everybody hears me play and I hear everyone else play too. After the concert we have a buffet tea which is yummy.
