The website for Early Music
education initiative ‘Viols in Our Schools’ is now launched. ‘Viols in Our
Schools’ exists as a pilot program of the Viola da Gamba Society of America. I
am writing the Early Music Chicago forum in order to appeal for assistance. I am
trying to get my presentations into new schools, but am finding the process slow
and difficult. You can find out more about my presentations at

http://www. violsinourschools. org/
. I demonstrate Renaissance music for
viols, as well as perform within the school setting. You can visit 'Viols in Our
Schools' at

http://www. violsinourschools. org/
. If you have any suggestions, feel free to
post them here, or email me at

info@violsinourschools. org
. View or join our Facebook Group at

http://www. facebook. com/group. php?gid=21730305297&ref=mf
.
For in-depth information, you can download information on ‘Viols in Our Schools’
