My Students: 
The double bass players at CST are energetic and enthusiastic sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students who have a passion for rocking out on their instrument! Although they do not always get the melody or the main part in music, the CST double bass players continue to show a resounding love for the double bass and performing in orchestra.
My Project: 
Occasionally, CST double bass players’ energy is stifled by the fact that they are not often featured. Repeatedly, they watch other instruments perform incredible solos on electric instruments plugged into amplifiers to be heard by the world. Despite their constant longing to be a part of the electric instrument world that other CST orchestra students enjoy, the bass players continue to show a desire for learning their instrument and becoming the best bass player they can be!
My Students Need: 
The CST double bass players are seeking funds to purchase an electric double bass so they can continue to rock out and enter the amplified world!
