Hidersine has struck an education bursary agreement with the European String Teachers Association – ESTA.
For every Hidersine instrument sold, Barnes and Mullins will donate to the ESTA Joan Dickson Chamber Music Fund. This bursary is designed to enable pupils of ESTA members to attend Chamber Music courses and to award funds to ESTA members for the purposes of setting up Chamber Music projects for their pupils.
“We are delighted that Hidersine have pledged their support to the ESTA Chamber Music bursary fund.” commented Philip Aird, ESTA General Manager.
“ESTA’s commitment to bowed instrument education is second to none, and it is through partnerships with industry leaders such as Hidersine and Thomastik Infeld that we can ensure funding for these important projects, and ultimately help more young people benefit from the experiences they offer.”
The new ESTA education funding agreement is in addition to the existing archive of bowed instrument technique demonstration videos, which offer a resource for all string teachers and pupils, and are freely available on www.hidersine.com
