String Revolution exists to perform and teach strategies of improvisation and contemporary creative string music to students and teachers through workshops and live concerts. We are devoted to ensemble playing in order to build community by example. Our repertoire is rooted in improvisation and world rhythms to demonstrate the versatility of our instruments outside of their western classical music identities.
